My Old Blue Eyes
I’m lost within his gentle gaze, swallowed whole in the bluish hews
Of old blue eyes, my heart melts within his tender gentle embrace,
This romantic bard whom speaks poetry without words expression!
Dancing moon lovers are we, swaying unto the stratosphere’s timeless
Waltz of everlasting devotion, lunar beings of twilight amerced within
The spell of loving!
Oh sweet prince of the ethereal dreaming realm, you’ve slain this
Damsel beneath thy lance of passions desire, concurred the dragon
Of betrayal leaving bleeding on the blackened field of past regrets,
I’m your queen of hearts, and you are my ace of the reddened rose!
Elder royals are we, my king and I, living in the crystal castle of
Dreams illusions, amongst the ageless hills of remembrance!
Fallen tears of angelic angels, are as the tender emotions shared
Within these keepsaker’s of the devotional, bound moonbeams
Flickering across the timeless seas of eternal love, rippling in
Colors array on this aquatic reflective surface of memory!
United roses intertwined by vows promise, in the golden
Bands two youthful hands, are unified beneath the gaze
Of the spiritual sky above!
Burnt embers of spent flames are we, as the age of
Melted candle wax drips downwards against the
Crystal hourglass of time itself, trickle do the grains
Of Silver sand, until the spark is just a twinkle!
Yet In the eyes of my lover, time stands completely still,
Continuously beautiful, in the elder years amongst the bouquet
Of the tarnished forget-me-knots of loving!
One by one let the rose petals fall, as leaves of the emotional,
Wistfully blowing freely in the breeze of passions heart’s desire,
Seductions wind dancers twisting in the winds of the romantic,
My old blue eyes, my king, and I!
Within his timeless ocean, let me this damsel of loving thus
Drown, beneath his tender waves, I’ll not struggle but embrace
His liquid aquatic motions, as a mermaid of legends caressed
By her prince of dreams!
Thunder creatures flashed by the lightning blast of seduction,
Storm dwellers, striking at one another in the thrashing twilight
Of the hurricane, than unwinding as we approach the shores
Of landfall dissipating ever gently as a light summer rain,
Than changing again as the morning mists at sunrise!
Here we’ll dream in the fields of tomorrow,
In our private kingdom amongst the clouds divide,
Within the castle of crystal clarity my king, my lover
My ruler of hearts and I, forever dreaming!
