Очи Зелёнaя, Green Eyes. Rextarian sonnet

If I had one-hundred lifetimes,

and I could live out each one,

then go on to the next, when one dies,

I would want to spend ONE lifetime of mine

doing my favorite thing under the sun:

let me spend one lifetime looking in your eyes!





ALL  is lovely about you and your eyes:

as lovely as is possible, and as is dreamable!

You are the thrill that thrills ALL my senses!

Such "common" things: eyes; one winks, one cries.

But, Oh!, the gaiety they show!  Ineffable!

And that gaze utterly controls--NO!--DESTROYS my defenses!





Those cool pools, where desire lives, and ne'er dies:

Oh!, Love's absolute refuge: a lifetime, looking in your eyes!


Author's Notes/Comments: 

I would try to NEVER blink!!!  Mon Coeur.

Teddy, I think this is one of the most sensual poems I've ever read. I hope your wife appreciates you.
Your friend,
