Green Eyes

The beauty in your green eyes
Steals and it seals,
The beauty of your heart
As well

If only I wish
I was much younger, than still
Your beauty I'd devour at will
But it’s too late in my life,
The sun is about to set,
The horizon is far, distant away…

I can't stay,
Even if you want me to play

My good times have lapsed
And passed away
Some other time,
We shall meet, we hope
And
in your life flowers will someone lay
Who with your loveliest eyes can play?

Adieu ma'am,
My times up
I can't your eyes ever cup...

Too real. Honest and gentle, simple even. I see nothing I would alter. istan

You might feel attacked by me at times but it's a compulsion that takes me when I read lesser works by those who I know can do better.

I am touched.

This is definitely one of the better.

Stanza 2, line 2.........I think the afore mentioned problem might reside in the word "than". Have you considered changing it to then or maybe deleting it? I agree with those above that this is one of your better poems..........stan
