Lavender Eyes
To be behind a slight disguise
behind those liquid lavender eyes
long search hard to find
a special soul nothing unkind
a feeling strong a heart that’s true
but wait I think they’re deep deep blue
I stare into a certain fate
I feel the pulse with quickened gate
spirit image and magic call
I am certain this is no illusion
wonderful real no confusion
lavender eyes forever together
sharing time with my beautiful feather
lavender eyes no disguise
I gaze into those lavender eyes
