All I See Is You

When I look into the sky
To see stars shining bright
I should see them twinkling
But you're all I see tonight

And when I look to see the clouds
As they go floating by
Your face is all I see
As I gaze into the sky

When I look out on the swells
To see the mighty ships
I have to catch my breath again
Cause I see my name upon your lips

And when I close my eyes at night
To dream of love so true
I know it was there all along
Cause all I see is you

When I look into the mountain sky
To embrace the smoky mist
Your face is all I see
As I remember our first kiss

And when I see a Daffodil
I'm truly mezmerized
Cause all I see is you
Waiting there in disguise

No matter where I look
No matter what I do
The movies of my memories start
And all I see is you

You see her when you look at all these different things. What do you see when you look at her?¿? Perhaps another poem? Well done! I'm jealous!

Jeffrey,

**SIGH**  Beautiful writing my friend.  You see so much these days.  Truly incredible.  I know she has inspired you more than she is aware.  I hope she sees the love you hold for her.  One of your best, I think.  I love the end . . .

Jeffrey, certainly your heart and head are filled with poetry, to write such tender verse. I enjoyed this too.

There are places inside our souls -
that have never been touched.
There are places inside our hearts -
that need to be loved this much.
