Poem: He Had Such Quiet Eyes- The synopsis

Hello again, have you read the poem in the previous post? Now, let us look at the synopsis of the poem: He had such quite eyes by Bibsy Soenharjo. Make sure you are able to get the gist of the poem.

The poem is about a persona, a lady who fell for the wrong man. She was fascinated with his ‘quiet eyes’ and believed that his eyes showed his true emotion and feelings for her. The man’s eyes had the power to charm her and made her believe him and be nice to him.

            However, the man was actually a ‘pleasure seeking man’, a flirt. As the lady was truly fascinated and charmed by the man, she did not listen or did not want to listen to any advice concerning the man’s true behaviour. In the end, she realized her error and was broken hearted.
