ROAMING EYE

ROAMING EYE

A Poem by Rene Velez

She smiles in her
passive aggressive accusation
I am guilty of a roaming eye
Observant, I am a servant
Locked in a struggle with beauty
Allowing me to see but never feel
My inner artist is real

A vessel for images and forms
visions that perform for me
A daily dance of chance,
I am in my writers trance
Breathing and creating beauty

Words are my window
Seeking warmth in the cold
A passage to a soul
Not barter nor sold

And so I smile, a shy eye
I reach and hold her hand
I tell her...

" your love is real in my visual land"

The eyes can tell us a thousand stories if we are allowed to look into them. I like the gentle and kind poem. The lines told a beautiful story of eyes that can make us content or become sad. A strong ending to a excellent poem.
