My Eyes Are Hungry

My eyes are hungry to taste of your smile
To devour luscious lips at a glance
They savor sweet flavor of sparkling eyes
Lick liquorish lashes at every chance

My eyes are hungry to nibble your skin
Driving appetite your essence to know
Wondering where scrumptious feast to begin
The take you, bit by bit and real slow

My hungry eyes drool my passion in tears
Releasing the strength of my desire
They eat their way into flesh of your heart
With their feasting, they ignite your fire

Feed these eyes; slowly undress now for me
For once hungry eyes have had blessed fill
My hungry hands can reach out for dessert
Invite lips and mouth to join in the thrill

You describe nature so true, Eileen. Interesting to think that our eyes have so much appetite, but it's so true.
