Bright Eyes

Bright Eyes

What do you see, 
when you look up at me,
And your face lights up with a smile?

When you watch my face, 
and reach up to embrace,
Your eyes so intent they beguile.

You study me though,
I know not what I show.
But I wonder sometimes, is it true?

Do you see there the grace
Found in every Mom's face,
The shining of my love for you?

Do you find, as I do,
That love colours your view?
Do you see through this physical guise?

What makes your smile glow,
When you look at me so,
My bright boy with the questioning eyes?
