I’m bewitched by those entrancing blue eyes
Deeper than seas, brighter than skies
If there was a doubt
You’ve cast it out
And your love for me is the prize

That’s a cool take on the limerick form! The title Bewitched makes me sing that old ditty (“…bewitched, bothered, and bewildered am I…”). 😉

There was an Irish band who were famous for five minutes over here in the 90s, called B*Witched… you’re lucky I’m not quoting their stuff!

Hahaha! We’ve got plenty of flash-in-the-pan bands (one hit wonders) with bad lyrics over here in North America. I’ll bet B*Witched’s lyrics are a riot. 😀

This was their highpoint…
Say you will say you won’t
Say you’ll do what I don’t
Say you’re true, say to me c’est la vie

faithful, look into my eyes ~ therein, the staircase to the skies ~ freedom we seek ~ love’s truth to speak ~ this way there can be no lies
(this limerick thing is fun) (uh oh, could there be a new book in my future???)

Well, my muse… I just wrote my evening offering (changing a couple things here) and about to publish on my blog.. Of course I am leading everyone right back here because YOUSE, MAH-MUSE!
Now, on the thought of co-authoring… that could be fun 🙂

I love this thread of conversation! ^^ Good luck with that!
And I simply love this limerick. It is beautiful. A joy to read. The eyes I lose myself into aren’t blue, but I could really feel the same thing in your poem as when I look into these eyes…
Thank you.

I’ve been doing my research into self-publishing on my own recently, so this would fit in with that perfectly… tbh, it just sounds like a fun thing to do!
