Eyes<br />

by Jennie Conway<br />

Amanda Grinvalds<br />

Eye colors are not simply blue, green or brown. No, they are colors worthy of a<br />

Crayola crayon: sea-foam green, sapphire blue, dark chocolate brown, and so on.<br />

My mom’s eyes are a warm, cozy brown that reminds me of hot apple cider on a<br />

snowy day. Most times they melt, and glow like freshly brewed hot chocolate, yet they can<br />

harden like her favorite Hershey bar; still, all variations remain undeniably delicious. Her<br />

eyes are a solid ground that, no matter how tread upon, will never waver, even under nearly<br />

unbearable weight.<br />

My eyes, a fuzzy hazel that cannot seem to decide which shade it prefers, will lean<br />

towards the green side of the shade, probably because I am a plant, finding the ability to<br />

grow and nour<strong>is</strong>hment from the helping hands of the solid ground.<br />
