Those Eyes, Break of a Day
To me, yea, Iris is all alighting
The scent of yours all pervading,
Behold your face chastised
When I close my eyes.
Can’t see you in flesh and blood
But I can paint you in words.
You are Wordsworth’s daffodils
Membrane of the eyes reeled.
The eyes give light at the dawn
The light that misleads the morn.
The eyes green, sexy and deep
Deeper than the depth to peep.
Genus Iris, sword-shaped leaves
Displaying rainbow colors to relive.
I feel March in your swirling dart
September in your pearly heart.
I see a heart full of love,
With the gentleness of a dove,
You be a window flower freeze
I am your summer breeze.
