Dr.Ram Mehta Poet Free verse

The Windows of the Soul-Win

The eyes are the windows to the soul
My ardent desire is to keep her eyes
Eyes so beautiful
Eyes so omniscient
But how can I conserve it?
Is there any preservative?
Can a hospital do it?
When they cremate her 
How can I look into her soul?
Or she can look into mine?
I can’t think of her to be lonely.
She believed in pure love 
And she also said “No love without a touch”
She even refused to accept flowers
As they need not be considered the proof of love
I am much agitated and unhappy
As in death even her eyes sparkles iridescently.

Aiyah Torres April 2, 2014 at 8:42 AM quite sad in some lines... _-eyes- _ the window of our soul... if there's only way to preserve it, and be the window to each soul forever... But I believe , God has made another way around to see someone's soul... it's the heart and mind that can travel along 'til infinities... This is a great poem ,Dr. Ram... ^__^
