United colors of Benetton

United colors of Benetton 

The face of that dark skinned girl

Looking over from the hoarding board

With piercing blue eyes and light brown hair

With no expression and no smile anywhere

The face that looked deep into you

Yet was just a placard, an advertisement, a ruse

The eyes that followed wherever you went

As if always waiting for you to see her face

Yet it was only an advert for the brand it endorsed

To show the people unity, where none existed ever at all

Everyone can write a poem. But for it to have a deeper meaning, a meaningful subject, an insight, well, that is another thing altogether.

But there is also a saying, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. Or in this case, meaning lies in the mind of the writer/ reader ;)
