We can dart here and there,

Though we always stay in one place.

We can smile or shed tears,

Show our pleasure or fears,

And you'll find us on everyone's face.

(Eyes)

I am a window,

I am a lamp,

I am clouded,

I am shining,

And I am coloured,

Set in white,

I fill with water and overflow.

I say much,

But I have no words.

(Eye)

I'm double, I'm single,

I'm black, blue and grey,

And the same either way.

With a nail at the end.

The more I am shared with others.

If you touch me

I may be snared,

If you lose me

Nothing will matter.

Like a double eedged sword,

And not my brother?

On two at noonday, on three in the evening?
