"Traveling The Universe Of Your Eyes"
"Traveling The Universe Of Your Eyes"
I look into your eyes and travel a universe created in love.
I gaze deeply, going back in time to the beginning and I see the tears God must have cried knowing the journey of pain he would use to make you, you.
I see the billions of stars that represent the billions of tears and the trillions of times you didn't understand.
I see the years and the tears and how you fought back with laughter. How the heavens opened up in your smiling eyes.
I see the love that God must have felt at the first spark of life that led to His children, a spark that never ceases to shine in the eyes of a mother.
I see the light of love in its many iterations, most clearly in it's recent form, made twice as beautiful by the light of love being reflected from mine!
As I travel the universe of your eyes, I follow the constellations of life, loss, joy, pain, hope, hurt, innocence, loss of innocence, dreaming, failure and redemption.
The journey from innocence, through pain, to love, found to be more pain, to joy in new life, through pain, and now new love through a return to innocence.
And again an end in pain!
As I stare into the heavens tonight, I see your eyes, a Universe in my mind's eye that draws me close to you, and takes me on a journey, through the Universe of your eyes!
Thank you my Beautiful Wife, Celeste'.
About this poem
There were many beautiful things about my wife but I think my favorite were her eyes. They were where her language began and ended, and she never stopped speaking until she closed them at night. They were that last journey I took at the end of each day and reason enough in themselves for me to wake the next day! "Baby I Love Your Eyes!"
