Analysis of BROWN



So much is said of eyes, except for brown.
The blue reflect the glimmer of the sea.
The green are royal emeralds, rare and round.
Most glance past brown’s unique vivacity.

My guy’s kind eyes make brown arise and shine.
My favorite eye shade is the color of
The eyes I see and love much more than mine.
Their brown turns gold, a sweet effect of love.

Like embers, brown eyes gleam in the sun’s beams
And emanate a simple, flame-lit glow.
Brown eyes hold tight to secrets, thoughts, and dreams
They know to always keep but rarely show.

Though blue and green are frequently addressed,
There’s not a doubt the color brown is best.
