Eyes

Deep dark chocolate ones fill me with pure awe, 
shining with pure empathy and cover every flaw.

Icy blue glacier ones fill me with insight, 
they're a mirror to my thoughts and sparkle oh so bright.

Emerald jewel green ones, twinkle softly---make me dream, 
as they cast their glaze upon me, comes warmth like a gentle stream.


Hybrid hazel topaz ones at dusk or morning light, 
capture me with many hues and bring my heart delight.

As we see such loving eyes, stunning beauty we behold.
Thanks to our Grand Creator----diversity He bestowed.
