Your Eyes

Untarnished beauty of the night.
Your purple stained lips; Blossom
whether night or day hot or cold
dry or wet, my eyes lock tight.

To the Deep seas'. Fountain blue
of speckled caves of a clear sky,
your face Worn; i see not a blemish
i see.

Cleopatra, of Queens,
a budding flower, A new
Born child. a lions cub.
For all these i see beautiful
but cannot touch.

I stroke your face,
for i am Adam and you are Eve
The world is our garden
yet. here. i see no snakes
our bodys tremble.


The morning is Young.
Tomorrow is close,
a timescape of non existence,
wrapped around us, our own space.
Forever now i lay, or death take me
with  battle, they close.


so when my eyes lock on yours.
my heart beats a tempo of justice
and i am forever lost.

    I never wrote a comment on this

    a timescape of non existence,
    wrapped around us, our own space

    those are my favourite two lines of poetry in the world, no lie.

    i love you

    Hard to Do

    For an old former English teacher, ignoring is hard to do. However, if I do your poem expresses a variety f emotions well. Its flow and pace are excellent.
