Those eyes

I'm in Love with Lena
and I hope my feelings never go away.
Every part of me reaches out to her
as I admire her more each day.
I suppose when you care for a woman
you should know the reasons why.
Let me begin with this reason than
those lovely luscious eyes.
For in her eyes
she holds the key
to all the love
that grows in me.
Thru her eyes
the world she sees.
By her eyes
she judges me.
And if she likes
the man she sees
perhaps her heart
will come to me
and I would thank those
precious eyes for showing me
how beautiful her heart can be.

In her eyes you see the lover you are
In her eyes the man you want to be
In her eyes the dream of tommorrow

Beautiful James

Thank you Sudhir, Beth, Sea, Paula, rosepetal, Mark, Bill, and Marina for the lovely comments.
Paula yes, yes, yes, exactly...you understand my feelings for her perfectly.
Mark when I want a kiss I think of Lena..when I want to feel Love I look into Lena's eyes...she is the most beautiful women in Honolulu...and it is true that she wants me to wait and to go slow and I am trying to honor her desire.
We had lunch early this afternoon at a Korean Restaurant and shared some special time together...
I read her my original copy of this poem sitting across the table from her.
I told her the poem was about her eyes.
She gave me a beautiful smile.
I was watching her closely when I read the part "those lovely luscious eyes".  
Those words touched her the most thruout the poem..she was really happy with it.
When I saw the expressions on her face while I read this poem to her I went Wow..
We enjoyed the silver good luck fish in the entrance of the restaurant...she said I was her good luck...I told her she was my good luck..
A few soft kisses and Lena went shopping and I went to work..I work in the afternoon and evening..
Marina all I can say is hope you are having a wonderful time in Quebec...wish I was there also enjoying the sights...thank you for thinking about me and for your lovely warm comments....James

Beautiful words of love from a beautiful
heart....such sentiments of love and to
share them with us in an honor, you've
shared her beauty with us in the love that
you wrote this with....it shines through in
ever line~

James, that you care for Lena deeply is evident in not only your poem, but the rest of your sharing here about her. She must be very special, to have captured your heart so intensely. Lovely writing, my friend.

Thank you Hoot Owl, Eloise, butterfly, and Claire for your lovely responses.
Claire she is very special and she has captured my heart now if I could only capture her heart...patience...one step at a time..one day at a time...if she likes what she sees she will come to me...if not..than I have tried...James

You have struck a chord with me on this one
Lena was my mother's name and she had the most beautiful blue eyes.
Your poem is so beautiful and I'm sure it will be treasured for always
