Green Eyes
My green eyes, reflected through
The color of my grandma’s eyes
And those before me.
Like emeralds and other gems
Thrown into the ocean. Like
The soft blades of grass running
Through my fingers. Something
So rare and unusual, but still
Beautiful and captivating.
Only 2% of the population
Has them. I am one of those
People.
