Gypsy Eyes

You’ve mirrored me in gypsy eyes, which never take but borrow You’ve bathed me in your gypsy eyes, which are your pools of sorrow You’ve gazed at me with gypsy eyes, which never see tomorrow ...

I just love this one, Terry. One of my favorite songs growing up was about a girl with green gypsy eyes. I liked to imagine being her with my green eyes!

‡ I Can Only The Beauty Although That These Eyes Have Thus Beheld * In Beholding Your Own Beauty * Tis Easy To Tell From Such Lovely Words As Your Precious Heart Left Upon My Poem A Bit Ago Today * Yesss, I Can Only Imagine Again The Joy, If You Were There * Sooo Lovely; Much More Then These Amissful Gypsy Eyes It Seems ? * My Luv, Rachel ‡
