POEM INSPIRED BY 'YOUR EYES TELL ME EVERYTHING'

When you look at me, need not ask:
eyes say it all above the mask,
as we share glances on the bus,
ignoring any around us.

Your lips, nose, may be out of view
but desire radiates from you,
a gaze that is penetrating
as mine gets when I'm hot dating.

Those two pearl-set orbs, shining brown,
so get me mentally 'pants down',
your mind imaginatively
is, despite suit, undressing me.

Your eyebrows, with fine pencilled fill,
raise like a tiger for the kill,
as if you are about to pounce.
(Can feel the bed under us bounce!)

Author's Note
Inspired by Billy Snagg's 'Your Eyes Tell Me Everything' and the accompanying picture (shown). I set this poem on public transport where (in UK) face coverings are compulsory during the pandemic.
