Those Lovely Eyes

Submitted by lovedly on Sun, 2020-03-15 05:06

Those eyes my.... my
young and fresh
blushing young teen
16
are still so beautiful
looking at a voyeur in me
almost nearing 80

Age is not a factor
to factor in
it's only my bleak eye's
thin azure skin

I see her right shoulder
touching her ear
the other is like
Down Under

but she still is a dear

In the Atlantic ocean beach
I see her hair shining
flowing in the fastest wind
she desperately wants to hold 'em

but her beautiful face
is sparkling
may Neo-Poets permit me
to call her

O my baby Darling!

I don't believe...

there has ever been a man or woman that has set an upper or lower limit to the age of beauty, just what you do about it.
I often see a girl of youth [teenager] and admire the beauty of her and I am in my seventies. Now, if I were to try and make something of it, I'm sure that I would be called a pervert and rightfully so. So, admire all you want. And don't use symbols for [at] ! ~Geezer.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.
