»The Eyes Hidden Behind Themselves«

by Andrew Eaton

Her face a sculpture of a
Body formed with elements of earth
Pearls of soil, found in oddest of places
The same cards dealt with the same odds

Find a gem, or receive a winning card
A glance for love, catching the sparkle
Eyes that flicker like diamonds under water
See clear a gem presented

A stone of clarity, earths gift to us
A lesser gem is an emerald of value or outer shell
A flawlessness of a diamond is what's focused on

Her eyes combine a gem or stone of wealth
A pearl traded for a diamond, a heart traded for the same
