...the strength to turn the tide.


  It was by the shores 
of that most mystical river, 
that we had 
the most beautiful vision. 

  I looked into your eyes, 
that were wide with delight, 
and it was in that tiny, 
timeless moment, 
that I was gifted a most revealing, 
insight. 

  You see I've never seen
such innocence,
such warmth in human form. 
It had to have been Divinity, 
for you had the eyes of one newly born. 

   I've never forgotten that look of love, 
of love in its most purest form. 

   I've never forgotten that look 
of raw nature, 
it was as if I was looking
into the eyes of a storm. 

   Now I see it from time to time, 
in that smile 
that has the power to transform.  

   And I feel it from time to time,
 in your words
 that are so encouragingly warm. 

     You see for me,
 you'll always be my Sita, 
who stands so loyally, 
by her Rama's side. 

  For me, 
you'll always be a keeper,
for your heart has the strength, 
to turn,
the tide...
