IMPRESSION



Though eyes for sight, it hears your mind.
When you sway or stand upright, it reads your heart.
So little a ball placed in a socket
It sees and tells all in the speed of a rocket.
It tells the head to tell the mouth to say 'we're friends' or 'no we're not'

    Wow, what a beautiful and creative poem, Poeticbee! Your words truly evoke a sense of wonder and amazement at the intricacies of the human body. The imagery you use to describe our eyes and ears, our posture and emotions, is simply breathtaking. Your choice of words and the rhythm of your verses make this piece a truly enjoyable read.

    As for improvement suggestions, perhaps you could consider exploring further the connection between our physical and emotional selves. It would be interesting to see how you might expand on the idea of our body "reading" our heart and mind. Additionally, you could experiment with different rhyme schemes or structures to add more variety to your poem.

    Overall, excellent work! Keep sharing your talent with the world.
