In To Her Eyes

Capped with soft golden hair Her blue eyes opened She smiled At once She knew I was there I reached for her tiny hand She gripped my finger With fierce intensity I kissed her forehead I knew I loved her completely The girl child Of Moondust and I Born in summer She cradled her To her breast As we looked out And saw in to her eyes Of sunsets And eagles flying in the west

Hey Matthew, Another great piece! I've just returned to PS after a long absence. I just realized that you had commented on a lot of my work in 2007. I would like to thank you now and to apologize for the long long delay. I have just begun to read your work and will continue to do so. This one is priceless! Now you know how it felt when I wrote FIRST BORN (For Andrea) Congratulations, Matthew! Once again, thank you for your support and your advice. God bless you and your family!
