Possessor of Two Eyes

You are the proud possessor of two eyes

Gifted by the Creator; hidden unless

Some of your blonds limn out to a nicety

Then emerges as a conscious propriety

Of your dark two eyes!

All bundle of anxiety finds a safe harbour

For safety, security, and killer of maleficence

Its nest is the human fence rests in serene peace

Sheens in its entire firmament, haloed

Then diffuses, and the whole world eyes!

They have been your barbary slave masters

Hard-hearted souls yield in your eyes

When covered by your tresses, eyes

Pierces the nefariety with the tenacity of redeyes!

Vision gray and you would succumb to decay

Ephemeral grandeur, like window-dressing!

Holds tight with louring but loses untied

No bond attracts! Time strips gloss -

Twilight beauty with a slackening knot

Au revoir the sunken sun on the shore!

Your dark two eyes!
