Her Lurid Eyes

A token flash from your azure eyes so fair
The snapshot did my ingratiated lids snare
Your sharpened stare did my focus pair
My singed cornea was left in state of disrepair
Your beaming irises cast a searing flare
My dilated pupils your steam did not spare
Reflecting lenses as mirrors cast lurid glare
My glowing retina could not the intense flame bear

    That was a helluva stare or perhaps a glare?! Wonderful imagery as usual, Stephen. Enjoyed! Always, Annalise
