Windows to the soul
Blue
Green
Brown
Grey
It's amazing what our eyes say
Sad
Glad
Worried
Amazed
Showing what we haven't explained
Shut
Tight
No
Light
Ensuring no one blinds us bright
Open
Wide
Looking
On
Showing everyone where we've gone
Our
Eyes
Can't
Hide
They're windows to our inside

Linked up with real toads.

Emma, I agree with all you have said about eyes. They are the first thing I notice about a person. They DO reveal so much.
How true...so often we try to hid what we are feeling, but our eyes betray us.
Astute observation - eyes tell all!
Love this take on the "windows to our inside." Clever.
The form, the poem ... great!!
Fabulous, Emma. You've done this so wonderfully well.

Playing with eyes of all colors, showing how similar their function can be . . . wonder if the blind eye is also a window in or if it is a mirror?
