5 Minute Freewrite - Brown Eyes

It has been ages since I have done one of these, thought since I am returning to posting once a day it is only right to start throwing some 5-minute freewrites in the mix again.



Oh, wow, another fun day for me to go and experience, explore and enjoy myself! Oh, look there is mom and dad! I love them, they always make me smile! Seems we are going out again today. It is so chilly in the mornings, but I don't mind. I like the colors. So many colors. Oh, here is mom again... And dad again! So many moms and dads when we go out. I like saying mom and dad whenever I see them. Ah well, guess they were not sticking around for a chat. Guess I will chat to the other moms and dads we see on our little brisk morning adventure.

Where are we going today? I do not know these colors at all, but the smell is kind of familiar. The place where they sometimes make me ouch. Not this time though. This time I only see white, oh so many white. But then after some time, they are touching my face and my eyes a lot. What on earth are they doing. Guess this is a new game, so I will just play along. Ouch! This is no game! What is this? Whaaaa... All the colors... They are... They are not mixed anymore. They are alive. They are sharp. Mom? Dad? Wow... I can finally see your face. I can finally see, your brown eyes.



This piece might make no sense when you read it, so I would like to shed a little light on it. It is something that I have been thinking about a lot and after seeing so many videos and gifs about it my thoughts immediately went to it after the 5-minute timer started.

Babies with extremely poor eyesight. Once they put on their first pair of glasses and can finally see something more than a blur. The joy on their faces. The joy of finally being able to distinguish mom and dad from other people and not just calling everyone mom and dad. The fact of seeing brown eyes for the first time. It hits you right in the feels...

Thanks a ton. I normally make a ton of spelling mistakes as I rush to finish my main idea, but then after the 5 minutes I go back and fix my errors. I almost didn't finish this one. I had some more examples I wanted to use but I ran out of time. These little freewrites are fun, but quite stressful sometimes. =P

Thanks for your kind words =)

Huh ha, thats ok, 😃, we all do mistake often when we type ; both slowly and on the moment when we are fast.

But, a good write is not justified by spelling mistakes, but with the content of the item which judges the basics of the write.Here, for example you passed in all the parameters.

So, good to talk with you, you are one of a gentle authors I met so far.
Keep this up for a long time, may you prosper in the future...
Take care, 👍👏,
@scrooger .

Good to read you're going to be posting daily! :) I must work myself back to that again too.... Easier said than done!

I had a feeling your freewrite was going in that direction, funny, but it's a subject I've wondered about myself too! Good one!!

Yeah, easier said than done indeed. Going to take a while to get back into it. Still struggling to build steam. =P

Seeing the kids see for the first time always warms my heart. :)
