Language of the Eyes

I noticed Pualani's eyes
Sparkling black diamonds shining brilliantly
Her eyes shifted back and forth
Making contact with someone's heart in the audience
So it is with the language of the eyes
Our kupunas' eyes spoke dissertations.
A snap of the neck, a turn of the head
And the eyes were upon you.
Kulikuli ka waha...be silent.
Ho'oha'aha'a...humble yourself, drop your eyes
Cease and desist...i keia manawa ano...this moment
Stern reminders of behavioral expectations
Uttered in loud silence
In the language of the eyes.

A tllt of the head, a soft hand on the shoulder
Eyes that spoke of velvet capes of love
Love from the past, love in the present
Love to come forever
Wordless expression of love, aloha pau 'ole
Love without end
Encourage us to do the same with others
With a depth of emotion whispered
In the language of the eyes.

While our eyes are black, while we breathe the gift of air
Observe the language of the eyes
Perfect the language of the eyes
Communicate in the language of the eyes.
Too many words blur our meaning.
Eyes speak the truth
