She has dazzling eyes of emerald green,
She speaks with an angel's voice,
A purity of soul I've rarely seen,
For I fell in love... I had no choice.

Her soft lips kiss... with delicate touch,
She smiles a smile of radiance born,
Her poise, her manner, her grace and such,
I surrendered myself... and my soul was torn.

To love just one, this life we try,
A tightrope walked on slender wire,
And if we fall... both shall die,
For who but a wise man could ignore desire.
          

Poetry is just the evidence of life.
If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash. "
Leon Cohen~
