Blue Misty Eyes
by Dale Clark → (All Poetry by Dale Clark)
  
Share   Print  Save   Follow   Share on Facebook



As I look into the night sky
I see a face
it’s the face of an old man
with a little boys eyes

Eyes of misty blue
the wisdom of star light
on a salt & pepper face

And the wrinkles around the face
accentuate the eyes which
catch a glint of sunshine in a smile

The disguise was a ruse
just before twilight
The sun sets and a boys
dreams begin and end
in the shadows of dusk
when the day is through

A life is finished
while one is born

I glanced into
the garden of delights
innocence and youth
sorrows and joys
in the boys eyes

After all an old man
has looked into the dark

The boy removes the mask
and in the mirror to his surprise
blue eyes reflect an old face
I believe I know who he is
until the moon rises and shines
like a sliver of a smile

It glows in the sky
as clouds drift by

Under the mountain-
images of snowy white tips
cover the pepper on his face
the glaciers of time
cover the face of an old man

As I look into the night sky
and a little boys face
I see misty blue eyes
