I Looked Among the Stars to Compare

I looked among the stars to compare

And found that among all of them,

None have the glare of your burning stare;

There’s only one that shines like a gem,

Like your lambent eyes of flame;

And this was God’s luminous daystar

In the middle of the sky like a golden dame

Letting her beauty lay bare.

I saw there wasn’t change in the Milky Way,

All the stars are glittering sparks;                          

Like little purses of light in the distance play,

Your strong empyrean-blue eyes as a hallmark

Burning bright in the immense universe.

Ah, your burning eyes; yes, a display of fireworks.
