The curve of your eyes embraces my heart <br />A ring of sweetness and dance <br />halo of time, sure nocturnal cradle, <br />And if I no longer know all I have lived through <br />It’s that your eyes have not always been mine. <br /> <br />Leaves of day and moss of dew, <br />Reeds of breeze, smiles perfumed, <br />Wings covering the world of light, <br />Boats charged with sky and sea, <br />Hunters of sound and sources of colour <br /> <br />Perfume enclosed by a covey of dawns <br />that beds forever on the straw of stars, <br />As the day depends on innocence <br />The whole world depends on your pure eyes <br />And all my blood flows under their sight.<br /><br />Paul Eluard<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-curve-of-your-eyes/
