EYES

Eyes that scan you
in every movement and in everything you do
While waiting
of an assent or a dissent
of a smile or a tear
Eyes that follow your steps
in the day and in the night
in the sun or rain
Eyes that are silent
waiting for a look
perhaps lost and now far away
for an instant or for the eternal
Eyes that look at the stars and the sky
the sun or the clouds
the sea, rivers and lakes
Eyes that follow the flight of a kite and a butterfly
the blossoming of flowers, the falling of leaves
and the colors of the rainbow
Eyes of a father or a mother
in which to get lost and finally recognize yourself
in which to mirror yourself
and finally meet again
