Eyes judge, that is just what eyes do.

They look a person up and down

and by appearance, judge what’s true.

All the eyes that looked on him found

only one truth, one from them all.

He was no good to have around.

What they could see was only fault

nothing he did was ever right.

Except in two bright eyes so small

he could do no wrong in her sight.

His shortcomings she did not know

but cheered him with love every night.

Others saw him as a zero

but to her, he was her hero.
