Intimate Sonnet

Nothing is more intimate than the eyes To pursue love in the depth of round orbs Then descend as invitation complies To find a softer realm love can absorb The truest distance is measured between When our eyes warmly meet in their silence As honored guests ushered when eyes convene With due respect and sense of compliance Aware of love's status with eyes open A welcomed gesture we gave without fear We'll enter with a sense of wealth again And find truth is held worthy to revere When eyes answer with sensual replies Nothing is more intimate that abides 8/30/14

Oh, so beautiful, Frederic. You made me remember how it felt to look into my late husband's crystal-blue eyes. This is very well written and, for me, the message is definitely true. Best wishes in the contest, my friend. (Jameis Winston played poorly last night - you were right. Perhaps I should eat my hat now.) Love and a serving of humble pie, Carolyn

Lovely sonnet with lovely theme. Eyes reveal what lies inside; and often no words are needed ... they have their own special way of expressing things. gl in contest! // paul
