Your Eyes

If a man is coupled with a woman who's eyes are so beautiful that upon seeing them his heart is gladdened even after the saddest moment, then is he to bid her by his side and hide her from all the world so that others never share of those eyes? Shall we hide the stars from the night sky? Shall we stop the tides rising to the moon? Shall we turn away from a child’s smile? Shall we stop-up people ears from an old woman’s wisdom? You and your eyes are only best appreciated when shared by others. That is my promise and it is my wish.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed."
