Description
Six Gold RingsYour eyes are strong
Great oak trees, once cut down by savage axes
Many times seen.
I peer over the seemingly weakened edge
Of the wholeness that now lies but a phantom
Connected to you as a ghost you will not let die
You continue to watch, learning, and knowing this is
A life you will not remember
But you will not die.
In your eyes are six gold rings
That represent the lives you have fulfilled
Over many, many years
Your soul seeps through to inhabit the phantom
Revealing itself only to those that dare
To gaze in the windows
And see the rewards your soul has achieved
Your six gold rings
Drawn in carefully as reminders
Of the lives you have lived

I have never heard of this before but I find it fascinating since I myself have a golden ring around my pupil. I think the poem is beautiful and conveys (my interpretation of what you meant, anyway) very well. I love: "Revealing itself only to those that dare To gaze in the windows.." *nods*
