The glint in your eyes
They speak a thousand words
In unheard languages
I am yet to comprehend
Or atleast allow me my pretense

So what is it you will have
A joy de tour on springy boards
Hastily in out of bound outskirts
Battled passion beneath pristine white
For the cleaning stewardess to find

Or the dance in silence
Where I am waltzed against walls
By invisible hands in caress
Love tumbled and awash
Still held upright by your eyes

Will it be the war of words
When the tongues all they want
to explode in a tango the lavish
The lust felt wrapped as love
While we debate on rights and wrongs

So tell me how would it be
All laid out as business pleasantries
As we conclude profound debates
Not a word heard or registered
The only take away the glint
An undying lament in sheathed eyes.

Eyes ©seemakjayaraman

I look up into the vast endless skies
Deep azure in endless white
whenever I remember you
and your engimatic eyes
I could never tell
where exactly the amber gems
dipped in laughter
And ringed with copper
seamlessly faded into a tapestry
of endless serenity

They say eyes are the window to the soul
but I say yours are gateway
to heaven and beyond
They are portals to divinity
Dynamic and fluid
I see imprinted within the tawny iris
The code to the point of your origins
On a yet unnamed star
In a far of galaxy
But such finely tuned homing devices
They will unfailingly take me home
Only I don't have any memories
Or recall of the interstellar experience
Within your eye

Eyes on a flight into endless space
to discover the reason for my creation
They carry the spark of God
And the intent for this creation
Within liquid honey
many a floating flints of gold
Seem to melt into an unmapped horizon
On unchartered journeys
expanding into infinity

Eyes Invitingly, let me dive in
They convey many a sign and revelations
Thesaurus of love
Codified in language of eloquence
With speeches devoid of sound
Energy emerges telepathically
And detail insights of great adventures
And immense learnings

What are we without
Our distinct eyes
They mark us as higher beings
On the path of spiritual evolution
Distinct from land locked vegetation
Each pair of eyes hold that
special spark of recognition
They set of pyrotechnics
Sparkling within dilated eyes
Oscillating to predefined vibrations
In the vicinity of a soul twin

Eyes
Of lotus blossoms
A limpid pool of bottomless dimensions  with 'mrignayani' shape
Neither oval nor oblong
They don't exactly match any shape or description
And no matter how deep I dive
And how far I swim within them
I never could set my feet at the bottom or  find the end

I found tawny eyes
lit with love inside
showing me the way
lest i stumble and retreat
But i know the journey
to discover this truth
Is a one way dive
into the intensity burning bright

A star soul
you have the imprints of all the dimensions
and divinity in those copper ringed eyes
brimming laughter of golden sunrise
And many a spectacular sunsets
Into the indigo of unending space
a beacon for me to strive and unravel
unlimited possibilities of you and me
oscillating on the spindle of love
till we funnel someday into
the 'bindu' of unity
replete and complete
as a potential, potent

Eyes eloquent sweep me away
On a tsunami of unspoken needs
They speak in many a tongue
Conveying in silence
many a complex meanings
Pouring forth from the oceanic eyes
Are verses, love poems and reams of paeans
As spring tides and tidal bore
They frighten me with their fierceness
Declaring their undying love for me

Eyes they  lead me on
To gamble on an adventure I did otherwise have never dared or known
Someday I will find my moorings at their bottom
dock and end my explorations
Till then the fragrance of paradise
pulls me on
I had expected darkness and shadows
Many a hidden passages of grief
But alchemist eyes work miracles
Holding only joy and peace
