Within Your EyesGentle captor, hear my plea Your eyes, your voice, imprison me Awaken stirrings from in my soul to be held by you, my sweetest goal Your gaze induces mine to dream Your eyes entice this conscious stream to flow and ebb, with soft surround in pools of hazel, I dearly drown For in your eyes I clearly see a wish fulfilled with honesty and tender, trusting, solemn sighs are mirrored, love, within your eyes ~ Claire |

"Melt..." Yes, I think she's right... that is exactly the effect this had. Sigh. |

Claire, this is so beautiful...I love looking into my love's eyes...although they are blue, not hazel..gorgeous work, it's so wonderful to have you around again! *Krista Knutson* "Cherish your vision; Cherish your ideals; Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts. If you remain true to them, your world will at last be built." ~James Allen~ "We've made houses for hatred...it's time we made a place where people's souls may be seen and made safe"...~Jewel~ |

Ahh...yes, the eyes. The passage to the soul and the light of all life. Great feeling in this one. Love the way it flows. |

Dark Angel, Martie, Chris, Krista, Eloise, Tracie, and Mark...thanks to each of you, in earnest, for reading and taking time to let me know you enjoyed this little piece. I wrote it in response to a poetry group challenge, to use simply "Your Eyes" as the theme of the poem. Thanks again for such kind words this morning. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Oh dear muse! What sweet reverie is this? Captivating... Awakens a time in my mind I had long since forgotten... |
