blind spot

apple, angel, almond
bright, brave, burning
cute, cold, cutting
deep, dark, deathly

in the eyes you can
catch a glimpse
................of soul
an appeal for mercy
a plea for understanding
pure mother-child love and
longing, desire and lust

so much can be discovered
in the peak and vales of the eyes
that one needs many lifetimes
to comprehend all their secrets
but the favourite eyes
for this temporal are
those smiling eyes
