Notes About The Poem

Related image

Private Eyes - Watchful

With quiet reservations he admires

Attuned to all that senses captivate

To sift thru information he acquires

Considering how it may thus relate

He studies all with intimate precision

For his or any sake that might arise

Unless the fates intend on a collision

Leave supervision to HIS private eyes.
