The eyes are indeed the windows of the soul. I agree with Ivan it would be hard to find a fault in this poem.10/10. Love, SandraX

It is hard to find a fault in this poem - I look of course because it is very good, & I look because I too can learn. But I think the tight rhythm would be unaffected by reducing just a metric beat here and there... S1L3 'upon' could become 'on' without affect. 'Rows upon rows' is overstating what is essentially 'row on row' - more classical, but not untoward as it is. I'll leave it there because I like what I've read - perfection is just a breath on a mirror away... Ivan
