Guess this color. I don’t think it should be too difficult.
It’s the color you see when you pull your finger out from a murky, slimy pond.
Sometimes a chicken lays egg with a sheen of it.
It’s the color rain leaves behind.
If you look closely you can see it in the ocean. Just a hint of it in sea foam, glinting in the afternoon sun.
You reminisce for it in autumn when the leaves are crinkled and dry.
It flashes on your face in a moment of jealousy.
Ducklings are colored in it’s offspring.
It’s the color of the man on the cereal box who stole all those charms.
It’s the color you see when Mother Earth smiles back at you.
You have it on your face before you get your sea legs.
Some think it’s lucky.
You’ll see it in my eyes, if you look close enough (I realize not all of you have done that). But cats have it too.
You probably all know it by now.
