EYES OF OCEAN AND GRASS

 

In my years I have only seen different eye color in animals

yet your eyes mesmerize me

one like sea grass and the other aqua ocean blue

rare, unmatched, beguiling, seductive

the sunlight reflects to expose sincere hues and shimmer

 

Allow me to marvel at them

with flutter in my gut and goosebumps on my skin

I wonder if there is a tale behind

what do these breathtaking eyes reveal?

 

May I gently touch your brow

with utmost care

while I gaze at the kaleidoscope of color

on your suntan face?

do not flinch from fright

as I am awestruck at your breathtaking sight

 

Perhaps when we discover each other’s charms

and inner cores

you shall disclose your narrative to me

in my arms

under a weeping willow tree
