Eyes to Prosper

29 March 2006


This beauty
eyes to prosper
bespectacled to gaze
The inquisitive to intelligence
the heart tranquil to perfect sight

A true princess to inquire
captured within a net of eloquence
As a rose to a thorny bush
her blood pure to breathe

Hair golden spun - silken to softness
of a smile never to be parted in ponderance
Given the spirit of motherhood to taste
neither taken in ways given to life

Her tiara - an invisible halo
crowned in her inner-being
Solace in search of kindness
gathered near - yet held in a distant heart


“Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty:
they shall behold the land that is very far off.”
Isaiah 33: 17 KJV



a poet who cares
