The Mirror of Your Eyes ‘Tis right for poet or artist’s eye That takes up what love belies What we discern in all reality Is but conceived by our fantasies Do see then with heart’s spirit blithe Those words shared as we hear them light Sung of souls met, this song sublime Gives one cause to dance in time Would with thee I inhabit such delight If I eyed thee so in candle’s light To mirror me your pleasure just That thee see reflected all love's trust Now Sire, seek these eyes of green Thy trust I have, this, thy love’s dream This one heart holds thy passion’s flame All of which abides, in reality’s name O do please share with me sheer twinklings Of thy spirits that roam within your dreams ~*~ ©Karilea Rilling Jungel 29 October 2000 revised 24 December 2001 revised, yet again, 13 May 2004 |

"Is but conceived by our fantasies" A line to live by. Great read. Really enjoyed this poem. JL  She said: ”You look cute in the dark.” |

"Now Sire, seek these eyes of green Thy trust I have, this, thy love’s dream This one heart holds thy passion’s flame All of which abides, in reality’s name O do please share with me sheer twinklings Of thy spirits that roam within your dreams" Excellent write Karilea...I don't recall seeing this before. I'm so pleased you brought it back. ~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~ ~ Trace my body with your words, in doing so, you touch my heart ~ |

"Would with thee I inhabit such delight If I eyed thee so in candle’s light To mirror me your pleasure just That thee see reflected all love's trust ~ Excellent rhyming and such sweet words of your poetic mind, Karilea. Enjoyed! |

This is a beautiful piece of writing. Your turns of phrases are so exquisitely drawn. KJ Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |
