Natasha L Scragg Poet Ode

An Ode To My Eyes

They are one of the smallest
Yet complex part of oneself.
They see, capture and perceive
The splendor of the creation 
Surrounding us.
Even in darkness, they shine.
They exude emotion,
Magnetise and entrance.
If you look at them closely...
You see who I am.
