Your Eyes

After all the passing years when your skin sagged and your hair turned to gray I noticed something that didn't change despite the long journey. Your eyes, your eyes... still as deep as the ocean; still as bright as the starlight and yes, still mine, and mine alone. 1st PLACE BRIAN'S CHOICE W, any form, any theme Poetry Contest 5/25/2020 2:28:00 AM Sponsored by: Brian Strand

As Charlotte Bronte once said: The eyes are the interpreter of the soul. Even the passing of years cannot erase that...his/her eyes will always speak to you...will always be your interpreter. ~ Regards // paul
