My daughter says my eyes are blue but I know that they’re green

The same color as hers, I wonder what that means?

 

Somewhere between ocean blue and salty waves of teal

Celadon? Emerald? or Jade? Give me a lively look of zeal

 

Does she see something deep inside that I myself don’t see?

Me reaching for the sky not swimming in the sea?

 

My mother had my same green eyes

Her mother bright, bright blue.

 

Maybe mine are some of both 

And that’s what I gave you

 

Keep searching for your vision truth

But to thine eyes be true!
