A Messenger of Love

Oh eyes, oh lips!—by Cupid they’re enticed
To form a smile rippled in his face;
Without the one, the other fails to prove
That he delights in words my tongue expressed.
To see them sharing both the myst’ry
And the joy of lighting candles deep within
Our souls, sweet feelings spring from purest fount
When eyes to eyes such subtle graces send.
Thus worlds unfurl, unlocked by sight alone,
A hidden wonder wrought by lovers’ stares,
Where we are slaved, eternity to spend,
Within the colored orbs of passioned souls.
Oh smile!—how potent is your simple art,
Messenger of love, and master of my heart.
