I really enjoyed the imagery of this poem and how you took it full circle. There are spelling mistakes; however, one easily overlooks that as we follow along. My favourite part, absolutely the ending!

"now I know that once not only my eyes were blue "

Nice work!

I'm glad to hear I feel for this poem too - we that live in four seasons climate might know better - can't imagine a tropic clima fx.
When I whas about two years of age my mom and dad took me into a park in the fall and I started crying and saying - the threes are dying. It felt horryfying and it has inspired me to write this poem;-)
Thanks
