In These Eyes

In these eyes

Are visions we leave them.

They see the past we create for them.

And the life we build with them.

If we show them beauty.

They will see beauty.

If we show them love.

They will see love.

If we show them compassion

They will see compassion.

If we paint our world for their eyes to see-

And behave in ways-

We hope for them to witness-

To emulate-

We have created vision.

And lasting memories.

In these eyes.
