Those Eyes

The warmth cascading over 
me like a tropical waterfall

Dragging me deeper, and deeper still
til I am oblivious to all

The softness, described as the
of silk or pure down

An equal, having been searched for
could never be found

Whether sunlight or moonlight
breathtaking to behold

One glance from afar, comparably
more precious than gold
