in the eyes of a stranger

A moment's glance
lingering look
so deep the mystery
and yet familiar
I find a home
within the gaze
so warm and inviting
as if I've been here before
Tenderly held
within these orbs
compassion
and love
I've seen before
Vaguely, clear
I catch a glimpse
reflected image
of a Friend,
Creator
in the eyes of a stranger.

This poem was written to all my peeps in Christ who daily reflect their love and passion for God. I am always amazed when I can see Jesus in the eyes of people I barely know. May His presence continue to be in your countenance.
