WOW, that is a beautiful poem, the truth Marianne Moore speaks!!
Anyone can write of eyes
but can they give them life
can they find the words to make
them move, or glitter, or tear filled,
or happy or sad.
What I am saying are there, in their repertoire enough adjectives, to expand and detail their writing.
Sheesh, I never read that anyplace. ;0)
You inspired me.
