I was lost in the depths of my loneliness Drifting on a darkened sea The light of day a fleeting hope And love a lost memory Then I saw your eyes and shadows brightened Laughter echoed through the dark I saw your eyes so full of passion Shining softly through my heart And sunlight shimmered in the darkness Like a light across the sea Bringing me home out of the shadows Where you are waiting patiently I saw your eyes like loves own beacon Calling out across my pain I saw your eyes with joy uplifting And I know how much I've gained |

A beautiful poem, Paula! The eyes are the mirrors of the soul. And if the soul is beautiful and full of love, who can resist?! Love and hugs, Lizzie ![]() "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |

A wonderful poem of rescue and reckoning! Mmm, mmm, mmm! I do love to read about finding the best things in life. And, I believe, love is THE best thing. This flowed beautifully and held me from title to end. |
