Do You See What I See?

For those of you that are visiting my Blog for the first time, I shared with the class that I write a little poetry. If you like what I have written,send me some"Snaps".


Do you see what I see,when I look at me? Tell me, what do you see? I can see deep inside those pretty brown eyes,all of the things that I try to hide.
What's in those eyes are painful moments, child-hood being taken away,joyful moments of child-bearing and heartaches of losing the ones that are near and dear. Happiness of re placing those empty spots. Thinking that I've gotten away,but it's something about those eyes that see deep inside of what lies beneath.
Wanting to cry like a baby entering the world for the first time and wanting to scream out to let the world know that I'm here,never to be forgotten.Wanting to leave a legacy for the legacies that I've created.But when those brown eyes look into their brown eyes looking deep inside to see a scar that she's left behind.How?When?Why??.
Oh! those clever brown eyes are not hiding as much as one would think.As I open these beautiful brown eyes one more time,tell me do you see what I see when you look at me?.

Hi Lavenia,

Very nice. I like it. I cannot compose tonight because I am falling asleep. Maybe later.
