Premiere Contest WinnerOracles of the Soul

From the eyes of every soldier
Reflection of blood and death
From the eyes of a rich man
Seeker of power and wealth
From the eyes of every sailor
Sailing all waves of life
From the eyes of a widower
Mourning his dear precious wife
From the eyes of old age
Sorcerer of all secrets hidden
From the eyes of every parent
Who find glory in their children
From the eyes of every lover
Blooming like buds of spring
From the eyes of every believer
One devotion to his worshiping.

From the eyes of every human
In laughter, happiness and pain
From the eyes of splendid Nature
Where rainbows grace from sun and rain.

Deep into all eyes
Lies the Universe’s core
The oracles of the soul.

TOP WIN :) :)

Hello Natasha, Congratulations on your Top Win with this quite marvelous free verse of yours. I really like your view and take on this theme which has definite metaphorical and metaphysical overtones, plus a demonstrable touch of the cosmic from the three verses in the final stanza of your poem. Outstanding Work!! A FAVE TOO!! Cheers and Best, Gary
