Life is what it entails

Calm for the human eye to view

A thumb like this, a fairytale

Safety and growth we do all pursue

If eaten, one might be cured

Good luck is what you’re guaranteed

Your vision enhanced, stability endured

Beyond hope you will exceed

But once its monster lays eye on you

You’re filled with envy

And bothered by the others too

But mostly carressed gently

You’ll find renewal in nature’s beauty

Because that’s all green’s duty

Laura was listening to “Green Eyes” by Erykah Badu while writing this poem.
