Lady With Crystal Eyes Poem by JJ Evendon

It was a bitterly cold night one late November,
a moment in time I shall always remember.
An Arctic wind had blown relentless for days
air whistled through trees like a hungry wolf's bay.
Dark grey laden clouds rolled remorselessly overhead
seemingly applauded by the banging door of an unlocked shed.
A sound came from the clouds - more of a tune than a word
where echoes of tubular bells could be heard.
A blinding white beam flashed suddenly from the sky
saw luminescent particles spiralling down the inside.
Soon the form of a beautiful woman appeared
accompanied by the most soothing music one could ever hear.
She may have come from another world but, I could not have cared,
for I was in love with her looks and short dark glossy hair.
She was dressed in white - like a mountain covered in snow
whose radiant presence matched that of a rainbow
Her eyes had a brilliance never seen before
she stole my heart and, could have taken more.
We looked at each other and then my world slowly started to spin
when she took my hand and led me somewhere deep within.
To travel beyond the furthest point of understanding is a long journey
my guidance, an umbilical cord of soul and harmony
whereupon I reached a place full of stars and clear blue skies
and all this is thanks to The Lady with Crystal eyes
