Language of the Eyes
Uriel Dana ©1998

Our eyes meet,
And I stand naked before you.
Nowhere to hide,
Washed up in the tide
Of a sea of gopis.

Our eyes meet,
And every cell of my body
Remembers you.
I pray my eyes
Do not betray me,
For yours truly
Take my breath away.
Pools of Light,
Messengers of Destiny.

Our eyes meet,
And the God in me
Sees the God in you.
All that was hidden
Is now exposed,
But only to each other
In heart and soul.

Our eyes meet,
And your love fills me
With the music of the spheres.
I am under your spell,
Touched by the stars
In your eyes.

ARTISTS NOTES ON “LANGUAGE OF THE EYES”

Language of the Eyes was published in the December 1998 issue of Outstanding Poets of 1998, by The National Library Of Poetry.

This poem was inspired by the love between Krishna and Radha. The Hindu story tells of a November evening when Krishna goes to his favorite spot in a forest and begins to play his flute under the full moon. His music is so hypnotic, 900,000 gopis (milkmaidens) come to him. In the midst of these women, Krishna looks up and spots Radha. Well, talk about a one-in-a-million kind of woman, one look at her and his clothes fall off, and he drops his flute! In fact, he is so taken with Radha, he refused to let go of her while he made love to the other 900,000.
