Love Poem: In Her Eyes

In Her Eyes

The arc of her eyes
makes the rounds
of my heart
a circuit of dew
and gentleness

In halo of time
cradle the nocturnal
I do not know
if I had ever lived
because her eyes
have not always
seen me

Leaves of daylight
and moss of dew
reeds of the wind
perfumed smiles
her clever sorcery
I am spellbound

My daylight
depends on
her innocence
my whole world
in her eyes

I am a hunter
of sound
seeking fountains
of color
the sky and sea
in her eyes...
