Ruby's Eyes

Ode to one I never knew

Enough to make
The heart quake…
The smile on Ruby’s lips

Enough to cause
The pulse to pause…
The curve of Ruby’s hips

Enough to light
The darkest sky
The sound of Ruby’s sighs…

Enough as such
The feel and touch
The heat of hands and thighs

Enough…and yet not quite
The most stunning sunset
Canna’ match the light

Not the brightest moon
Nor the brightest star
Nor the warmth of love on a night in June

Are not the equal of
But only a sequel to love

…The light in Ruby’s eyes…

Author's Note

I just liked the phrase "Ruby's eyes" and had to do something with itl
