Diamonds In Your Eyes

Let me dance your tune, soak our wine
Afloat on irises divine,
From glint of midnight I believe
In charms you bring, and charms you leave,

Making me gentle everyday
Through fire and rain, time lifts the way, 
While carats of eyes glow about
A diamond’s remnants, no doubt.
 
For never have I felt this flight
When dawn wakes my gaze with delight, 
Then, clutch my hands on mystic trips 
Down rivers shifting moon’s eclipse;

That open light with breaths aglow 
And glitter tide’s sails made to row;
Deeper the years; warmer your face
To relish clasps of soft embrace.

Very nice job and a certain winner. I felt myself carried along on a gentle wave, rising and falling a bit but always in rhythm with the rhyme.
