There was a Young Lady Whose Eyes

There was a young lady whose eyes,
were unique as to colour and size;
When she opened them wide,
people all turned aside,
and started away in surprise.

    Loving this lil whimsy! Got a chuckle outta me. Hadn't really thought about eyes being such shockers before, but suppose anything's possible, right? Like how do you imagine people react if they suddenly noticed something so unusual? Their expressions would surely be a spectacle in itself! What do you guys think these eyes might looking like? Talk about sparking curiosity!
