Her eyes they shine
The deepest blue, matching the sky
In the evening, looking off east
O’er the Cascades, latest July
Through smoke roasting leg of beast
Can’t look away, though I do try,
My mind recoils from the feast.
Across the office, right at lunch
I notice the tumbling sea
Crashing waves cause pebbles to crunch
Tsunami rolls in, wild and free
Afraid to move, I ponder brunch
And ask those eyes to come with me
Across the table, crystal clear
Aquamarine gemstones shine bright
Facetted perfect shed no tear
Refracting starlight in the night
Bringing me peace, removing fear
Those eyes make me feel I’m alright

Her eyes they shine
The deepest blue, matching the sky
In the evening, looking off east
O’er the Cascades, latest July
Through smoke roasting leg of beast
Can’t look away, though I do try,
My mind recoils from the feast.
Across the office, right at lunch
I notice the tumbling sea
Crashing waves cause pebbles to crunch
Tsunami rolls in, wild and free
Afraid to move, I ponder brunch
And ask those eyes to come with me
Across the table, crystal clear
Aquamarine gemstones shine bright
Facetted perfect shed no tear
Refracting starlight in the night
Bringing me peace, removing fear
Those eyes make me feel I’m alright
