Eyes

Green eyes
Soft emeralds
Bringing promises
Of love and friendship
Full of ancient knowledge
And mysterious power
Forever bright
Even as death claimed them

Red eyes
Beautiful rubies
Strong and wilful
No matter when
Lit by childhood memories
Love is making them shine
Always there
For their precious ones

Blue eyes
Bottomless sapphires
Morning sea and night sky
Entwined into one
Signs of an endless search
Proofs of eternal love
Windows to a beautiful heart
Separated in two
