Poem Artwork

He has a way of looking at you.
Like he knows something that you do not.
He knows that you want to know what it is,
these things he perceives, but does not say.
The unnerving way of looking at you, sizing you up,
getting the complete picture of you in his mind,
without ever leaving his eyes on you for long.

A way of showing you a half smile, more a smirk really,
Reiterating that knowing look in his eyes,
that tells you that he already knows,
the answer to the question he has just asked you.
He knows you are going to try to get out,
of giving him that answer, and he is ready
to use your reluctance against you, skillfully.

Shay White

That is the power of love in action as it goes on through eternity seeking its lost soul mate. Very well done and beautiful imagery.

I don't believe in ghosts, but you paint a beautiful picture of ethereal love carried out through the seasons of the year at a place seaside and mysterious.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
