Within Your Eyes

There is within your eyes a certain light --
a glimmer sparkling like a comet’s trail
 within the growing darkness of a Summer’s velvet dusk,
the sapphire star that graces clear skied evensong
 and calls the postulant to prayer,
the warming gleam of crescent dancing candle flames
 within the alcove of a darkened room
 that animate and golden glow the night:
They are now hushing me.
They that make me still and gladly powerless
and soar me through the spinning heaven’s heights.
