Wide, boggled pair of brown eyes, <br />Stressed, no hand to stretch– <br />No lending hand to find, bittered– <br />Staring at the sky, almost weeping, <br />like a soldier scuffing a foot, <br />ffter a bullet nailed his heel. <br /> <br />Hapless pair of brown eyes, <br />labored its pupil like a gander, <br />elongating a cherished neck over <br />Klondike plated fences, <br />waiting for great white hope… <br /> <br />Days, after serving penitent patience, <br />from crimes gestated by tamed felons, <br />obscured by their vicious schemes– <br />Poor eyes, about to surrender by dawn. <br />But, its valor endure, to hold a promise, <br />A hope that every eyes thirst to capture.<br /><br />Daffodil Decarie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ah-nothing-but-pain/
