In thine eye, my island, my love's recluse <br />Where my heart stops to enjoy thy light <br />And eat thy beauties cloying fruits <br />And rest in the iris of tender night <br /> <br />Only seen by thy gratifying sight <br />In mourning I bath with thine tears <br />Drenched in sorrow I take flight <br />And search for thy internal peers <br /> <br />An orchid of orange, in my sight appears <br />Small sinuous lines do I trace <br />In the soil of thine iridescent honey <br />Illustrious in light's blessing grace. <br /> <br />Thy soil changes like the mood of thine face <br />From a honey brown to murky gray <br />When clouds form and it's not to sunny <br />For your eyes to beam in bright day. <br /> <br />For loves salvation, to the sun I pray. <br />To dry thine tears so thy honey may grow <br />And forever on thine eye my love can play <br />In its glisten and in its glow.<br /><br />Kevin Michael Murphy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/her-beautiful-eye/
