They Smiled Eye To Eye

THEY SMILED EYE TO EYE

                                         They smiled eye to eye
                                   As if they met a millennium after 
                                      Strolling down into the valley

                                             They were silent
                                       Touching each other's arm
                                         Quiet flowed the breeze

                                They saw their images in the blue lake
                            Shy moon slipped behind the curtain of mist
                                      Little ripples met each other 

                               Their steps heard the whisper of wind
                                       And stopped short to listen
                                       What she said to the world

                               The road met with rambling forest paths
                                       They stopped near a grove
                                     And kissed each other goodbye
                                      A baby bird cried out in dream.

Great poem! I especially liked your 4th stanza lines where their steps heard the whisper of wind and stopped short to listen. Strong Images in every line. Your poem put me there and I'm also, listening.
