Through Hazel Eyes~

Did I imagine your voice..
your tongue touching the roof
of your mouth, forming the L
of that powerful word..
your thoughts pressed between
pages of poetry, unfolded and shared
on nights when the moon tugged your soul,
and lit your eyes silver..
some things are meant to be fleeting,
touched for a season,
paving the heart for its continued journey.

At the crest of the hill
someone calls my name..
low and sweet,
in a way I've never heard before,
a voice that knows the color of my eyes,
where my fears like to hide,
being led from the clamor,
as each eyelid is kissed,
and I'm lifted to higher ground.

Great piece, again.  Its refreshing to read you.  Really, really like
". . . in a way I've never heard before,
a voice that knows the color of my eyes,
where my fears like to hide,
being led from the clamor,. . . "

Dearest Sky,
I read this awhile ago and would have sworn I commented (dang my memory). Maybe I got frustrated looking for a word to do it justice. I'm still struggling. It has a sweetness about it, but it is much more rich and full and deep so that word just wouldn't do. Maybe Romantic if written in calligraphy?
Just know I love it! ~L
