There are many wonders of my wife, wonders that escape the gravitational pull of my senses. Her eyes are one such wonder, a profound amazement in my soul. If her eyes were gemstones, the word that is used to describe what captures my breath is the chatoyancy, in French: œil de chat. Someone described this quality as the sheen off a spool of silk. For me, her eyes are the blue shimmer of the Caribbean Sea. My heart, my head, I fall away as I stare into her eyes.
