When my eye rests on You,

I feel warmth in my heart.


Unfathomable bliss surrounds me—

Envelops me in its warm embrace.


Do not blind me with your light;

I will not see when I am burning.


Your angelic being forces my smile,

That just will not budge—

For when my eye rests on you,

It is an everlasting delight.


You are sweet as candy,

Sharp as a knife,

And warm as fresh bread.


I will never tire of thanking the existence of serendipity

That my eye has chosen You.


The author's comments:

I gathered inspiration for this piece from the last word “serendipity.” I decided I wanted to surround my poem with love and affection that finally thanks the existence of luck and chance that I have been given the gift of You.
