Silent Ocean Eyes

Silent Ocean Eyes
Quizmo LaGrande

Thank you, my Love,
for your silent, laughing eyes,
expressive green and golden sighs,
that flash as ocean waves delight
to wash upon the shore

with gleam unhesitant to warm
my chilling days of nevermore
wanting life or love to whore
the loneliness, felt certain,
till your knowing gaze pierced mine.

Thank you, my Love,
for seeking the wind,
outstretching arms without rescind,
then coming about on gentle gust
sailing firm in harbored trust.

A fathom full of faith, I see
in golden eyes, now blue for me.
Storm, calm, gale, unaltered true,
ocean eyes that match my hue,
please wash onto my shore.

Please wash upon my shore, my Love,
your ocean eyes
forever more.
