Eyes
                Mesmerize
                                  Tantalize
                                                  Hypnotize

Shed tears
                Reflect fears
                                  Shift gears
                                                   As passion nears

No blinking
                Keep thinking
                                  He's winking
                                                  My heart's sinking

Into his pools
Warm, brown
Eyes

Carolyn, came here again to thank you for your blog comment and observations. I do want to blog someday about lay and lie, two of the most misused verbs in our language! How interesting that you also taught these things. Have a great weekend. Luv, Andra
