Brown, 

Sepia brown. 

Inky, crinkly, sepia brown.

Travel by wagon was hot and slow.

The sun blazed in the sky, orange and low.

Written in words as vivid as a 64-color box of crayons

The eyes! I realize. 

The girl has Aunty's eyes. 

Soft and shining. 

Sepia brown.

Humming, strumming, ringing, singing
