Lover of Eyes Or Ode To Eyes
ODE TO EYES
Eyes
Hazel or Grey
The biting blue of ice bergs
Breaking knives into the sea--
The thousand shades of green
That hide in shadowy golden lashes--
Brown cold as winter bark
beside the frozen sea--
Black with fierce passion
of a ship in silhouette
Coming to the rescue.
Each enfolds a Splendor.
Beauty is magnified by its
mutability--
Eyes flash hot to cold
Faster than a chemist's burner.
Provocative in timelessness,
Eyes can haunt forever, and forever they enslave--
Fortune, infamous for cruelty,
Is kind in this respect--
Years do not diminish
The magnificence
Of
Eyes.
