-1Fear Not Mine Eyes

Fear not mine eyes as they comprise,

Scenes of adventure, discovery and surprise!
At the break of dawn, they open up wide,
All bright and welcoming clear blue skies!

Fear not mine eyes because of their size,

Reflections of parents no doubt, I surmise!
Full of warm memories and meetings arise,
Among joy and laughter, tearful goodbyes!

Fear not mine eyes for they are wise,

From mother nature’s teaching all that ties,
Us together in worlds of beauty, truth and lies,
Of love and hatred, the latter despise.

Fear not mine eyes since they reprise,

Hopes and dreams of floating butterflies,
Over fields of green and deep blue seas,
Into eyes that shine past the day time dies!
