Open His Eyes Poem by Rich Okun

Open His Eyes



There was a young boy, who grew to be a man. with a long ago dream, to see like Peter Pan.

Wanting magic and awe, to fill all of his days, but to be able to see, he needed a special gaze.

Then along came a puppy, whose name is Maya. She was about to inspire; and set their worlds on fire

Before she got there, she had already arrived. The answer to a prayer, over time had survived

He could feel her coming, and could hardly wait. His heart was a drumming, their love to create.

Was she a premonition? or just a wish. This sweet magician, from start to finish.

Who might these two be? (asked an angel up high ;) "anyone and everyone, they are you and I".

And so it began, with love, not disguise. To achieve his plan, help to open his eyes.

She shows him how, to live in the now, to see his way through, she wants to help you too

So lets get snappy, just follow her heart. Sing and be happy, never too far apart.

She will open your eyes, and let you see through. Light your world with surprise, with her love for you
