Your eyes are like the sunset <br />When they close at night <br />Across your beautiful face <br />Two peaceful souls side by side <br />Hitting the hay together <br />In each others grateful company <br />Sleeping gracefully at rest <br />The stand still of a photograph <br />With midnights silence <br />Prolonged until the sun reawakens <br />And your eyes open, a new sunrise <br />As the rays of morning glory cover us <br />In a blanket of warmth <br />A smile spreads from your lips <br />And your eyes glimmer <br />Shining and sparkling <br />In the knowledge <br />That in this new day <br />All yesterday’s troubles <br />Are gone, distant <br />Like the moon they are <br />Far, far away…<br /><br />Stephen Beckett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sunset-eyes/
