~ Arabesque Eyes ~
by S. Anne Gardner
Arabesque eyes…. seductive eyes that I drown in.
Eyes that encompass the warmth of the Sahara wind.
Eyes that fill me with dreams of the Gardens that fill the Alhambra.
Eyes, arabesque eyes that hold the promise to beauty beyond compare and fields of yellow roses.
Jasmine fills my senses as I drown in the beauty of those eyes.
Jasmine, sweet scent that encompass this world of old with a promise of the new. Past, Present, Future….eyes, such beauty in your arabesque eyes.
Jasmine, sweet scent that envelopes two lovers as they are held in love's embrace…sweetness, such sweetness. Such beauty in your arabesque eyes.
Water, water that is life in the sands… water that from a fountain brings forth the silent gift of a secret.
Water, witness to a love that fills the Alhambra with the magic of times gone by.
Water, witness to countless lifetimes is at awe of said love…..water, sacred water that runs in the ruins of the forgotten glory of the Alhambra… water weeps at the beauty of the words and the love of two lovers in its gardens...in the fortress of the ruins of the Alhambra.
Water, witness….such magnificence, a great love again lives at the gardens of the glorious Alhambra.
