When I Look Into Your Eyes

When I look into your eyes, I take a journey into your soul discovering that inner being that I love and yearn to know; When I look into your eyes, I dance with the sparkle that makes me come alive. When your eyes meet mine, they dance together in harmony traveling through our psyches without a disguise and little or no reprise; When I look into your eyes, we travel the world of dream--to waterfalls gently caressing our bodies and oceans and lands yearning for us to discover and understand; When I look into your eyes, we soar high into the clouds and land softly on warm beaches, endlessly playing, building sandcastles and whisking the sand between our toes; When I look into your eyes, we are living in a castle near the mountains; the blue in your eyes reflects the crisp, cool blue sky above as we approach it for the very first time; we open the door and the sparkle in your eyes reflects the purpose and pride of fulfilled hopes, dreams, and desires that you saw and helped us achieve; When I look into your eyes, we are positive, encouraging, and compassionate to those around us because the security we have in our love allows us to be so without fear or loneliness; When I look into your eyes, I see the reflection of your love for me and mine for you. We are becoming one in heart, mind, and spirit yet unique and apart at the same time; When I look into your eyes, I see that God still works miracles every day--for our love is so precious and rare that few can compare; When I look into your eyes, I see God and his love for you, his precious child, and you are pleasing in his eyes. When I look into your eyes, I love you. I feel purpose and meaning beyond belief; When I look into your eyes, I feel soft and tender and will never let you go; When I look into your eyes, I trust, believe, and understand; I know where you lead I will go--and I am by your side. Although I am not perfect, I will always try....there by your side.

Person you love must be a travel agent. They are also on line. You must have written this after watching, "Sound of Music" in 1963 or "African Queen" in 1951 or "Rome Holiday" in 1953. Winning Academy Awards are always interesting.

Sara poets said that thousands of years before science discovered ....The eyes really are a window to the soul, according to scientists. Patterns in the iris can give an indication of whether we are warm and trusting or neurotic and impulsive, research has found. Google "Scientists discover that eyes really are 'the window to the soul'"
