Title: Grey
Length: 500
Rating: Gen
Notes: Colour poem (a variation on)
Summary: 50 shades of Victorian grey
Author's Notes: I found 50+ instances of the colour grey in canon. Very startling for me: I've never met anyone with grey coloured eyes so I always attributed grey eyes as something special and, in my mind, specifically linked to Sherlock Holmes, but when you do a 'Find' search of canon, you realise EVERYONE has grey eyes. It's very, very strange (and thus, perhaps, fitting for the month's prompt as it was poet who had the revelation). I mean, Victorian London must have been populated by nothing but grey eyed people! Anyway, this poem started out as one thing and became something else. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy.
