Soul Eyes

As my eyes, with age, are losing their sight And able I am not, clearly, anything to see My soul’s eyes, in wonder, are opening wide Praying, my Lord, a glimpse to get of Thee! © Demetrios Trifiatis 07 JANUARY 2015

My dear sweet poet...This is a superb write. My computer is playing tricks on me...or perhaps it is the storm here in Beirut which tends to affect our internet connections. I had written how much your poem touched my heart. It is one of your best....I hope that your lovely eyes continue to sparkle with clarity. I wish you long life, health, and happiness. Your soul's eyes are beautiful too! Hugs

You are spoiling me my dearest Eileen! You so generous and kind! Be careful though for there is a slight possibility to believe all those nice things you write about me! Ha-ha! Thank you very much for your gracious visit! Hugs

Hi Demetrios! Powerful golden pen ! I really enjoyed your beautiful prayer to God my dearest friend. I believe He's already letting you have a glimpse of Him and much more to be gifted to you one day according to His promises. in Heaven our bodies will be transformed and made perfect like were intended to be but for sin entering the picture.You'll always be able to see better thru His eyes and your very kind heart and soul.A solid 7 from me! I wish you the best in 2015! Have a very lovely evening! :) Love and hugs! xxx D.""

Perhaps with dimming eyesite we may be able to listen with greater clarity. This is a very nice reflective piece Demetrios.

When more than 80% of the information comes through the sight I cannot see how clarity of hearing could help, dear friend! I believe that one sees the light, Richard, he doesn't hear it! Thank you!

The heart is material the soul is spiritual, isn't that so, my friend, Tim? Through spiritual eyes one perceives divinity! Thank you for your kind visit and comment!

Yes, eyes can see material reality: phenomena! Soul's eyes can see transcendental reality: Spirituality, God, dear, Toquyen. Thank you for visiting!

The small voice you refer to my friend, David, is ringing in my ears for a long time. Now I try to perceive transcendental reality through the immaterial eyes of my soul! Thank you so much for your loving visit and comment!
