Deep into the eyes of heaven I stare, Singling out colors as they form in the air. Reds, greens, blues come out of nowhere, As water droplets are caught in the suns glare. Frantically running towards this brilliant pleasure, I desperately seek to find its hidden treasure. There it lies shimmering before me, Its radiant beauty spanning as far as I can see. The cool, wet mist caresses my face, My arms extend, reaching for its grace. "Can it be?! Am I finally here?" Opening my heart as I wipe away a tear. I thank the "Lord" as I look to the skies, As I am reminded of nothing, but the beauty in your eyes...... |

Yep - they're truly awesome - Ever see a double rainbow??? ------------------ Nay, if our wits run the Wild-Goose chase, I am done: For thou hast more of the Wild-Goose in one of thy wits, Than I am sure I have in my whole five. ~ ²1592 Wm. Shakespeare ~ Romeo & Juliet ~ ii. iv. 75 |

Beautiful....*sigh*.. HUGS ------------------ You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. |
