Big brown eyes searching, seeking
Catch my bright blue orbs a-peeking

Brown haired tyke shuffling tiny feet
Is it my brogans you’ve come to greet?

Biding there beneath my growing girth
What could a moment like this be worth?

Bending down we meet face to face as
Brown blends to blue in subtle grace

Bambino blinks slowly as I grow older
Then lays his head on my broad shoulder

Brilliant rows of unblinking eyes
Stare at us with dumb surprise

But do they see what’s happening here?
And what brings that ringing to my ears?

Beyond my blaring auricular condition
I hear a trumpeting, an angelic rendition

Bestowing sight to those unnaturally blind
To the benign child in all mankind...

Behold, two souls have breached time and space
To ogle each other in this most ocular place.
