"... we are always harking back to some occasion which seemed to us to reach perfection, setting that up as a norm, and depreciating all other occasions by comparison. But these other occasions, I now suspect, are often full of their own new blessing, if only we would lay ourselves open to it. " (C. S. Lewis)

Those Eyes

This photo is the wallpaper on my computer desktop.


I love this photo.
I look at it every time I go past my computer.

Personally, I think he is one of the most beautiful children I have ever seen.

He's not my child.

When I sit down to my computer everyday, I see the same eyes that looked at me 25 years ago across the table in the cafeteria.

He spoke his first words to me, and all I could say was,
"Don't look at me with those blue eyes."

It's true. I thought them, but somehow, I spoke them out loud.

I was not a forward person. I just think I knew if he didn't stop staring at me with those big blue eyes, I'd have to marry him.

So I did!

He had a birthday yesterday.

Happy Birthday, Ken!
I love you!
I love my life with you,
and I still love those blue eyes.



When I look in your eyes, I see the wisdom of the world in your eyes
I see the sadness of a thousand goodbyes
When I look in your eyes

And it is no surprise, to see the softness of the moon in your eyes
The gentle sparkle of the stars in your eyes
When I look in your eyes

In your eyes, I see the deepness of the sea
I see the deepness of the love
The love I feel you feel for me

Autumn comes, summer dies
I see the passing of the years in your eyes
And when we part there will be no tears no goodbyes
I'll just look into your eyes

Those eyes, so wise
So warm, so real
How I love the world, your eyes reveal

By the way, could this man possibly be the father of this child.


I think the "eyes" have it!
