This Evening in Your Eyes

Pregnant song

This evening in your eyes.

Shadows tilt the sun across the sky

Balancing the weight of light

With the light of dark

One eye on the vernal moon

Spring is none too soon

With it's ecstasies.

Summer in the sudden stopping rain

Breathless in the midst of play

Waiting for the change

One eye on the fading light

Bringing on a night

Of discoveries.

I can feel you all around me

You're like a whisper in the trees

And the promise of

this evening

In your eyes.

Autumn crescent slides behind the trees

Currents pulse impatiently

Coursing thru the veins

One eye on your glowing face

Resplendent in this clearing

Of mysteries.

I can feel you all around me

You're like a rustle in the leaves

And the promise of

this evening

In your eyes.

I can feel you in the swirling breeze

I can feel you pulse impatiently

And the promise of

this evening

In your eyes.
