82.Behind Your Eyes

 Forgive me--
      If I hold you too long,
      Or too close,
      Or just plain too much,
 But you must understand
      What trance lays
      Before my wat’ring eyes
      When I gaze upon
 Those two shim’ring
      subtle oceans blue,
      soft pearls
      of a joyous smile so bright,
      and all of the beauty that lies behind them.
