Envy

Her eyes, Her beautiful, hypnotic eyes……..
Jade green eyes……
They amaze me…….
But am bewitched by her green eyes that I see

She binds me in her hypnotic spells
Within her my thoughts of her linger on and dwells

She looks on as she walks by
She is aware of my warm yearning sigh
This enchanting temptress of my dreams 
Is walking away and my heart for her it screams
A mere mortal like me
A mortal I will be
Temptress she walks away
As on this grassy bed I lay

How glorious and wonderful she looks as she departs
She has seized, my dying heart

Do you know the song Green Eyed Lady? I always liked it because I am a green eyed lady. This is a cool poem, Sashi. It also embodies the lyrics of that song I loved from my teens! Interesting how you entitled it Envy. I envy one with such magical powers too.
