Why is the sky blue?

Why is the grass green?

Why does the parrot look at me with red fethers preen?

But I guess that I am lucky,

for there's a story of three men,

and I will tell it to all of the Den.

When I looked into the first man's eyes,

I noticed they were white.

And here I am just taking things in spite.

The second man was better off,

but still had gone astray,

for he told me that I was the perfect shade of gray.

The third man was the best,

but still in quite a catch,

for every time he tried to dress, he'd never make a match.

What do these men have in common?

What do they all share?

If you can't tell, then look again,I've seen the answer there.

They were all blind?

They were all blind?

Yep. different levels of it though-blind, color blind (sees in black and white), and color blind again(Mixes up colors). I was thinking it was a one guesser.Good job!

all three men are the same person with color-blindness?

Your last one (mixing up colors)=color confused. I know a guy who thinks that shade of poop brown and british racing green are each other. He thinks one is the other. It's so weird. Because I had a green car and another guy (it was a job) had a brown car. So, he'd always think mine was brown and (Ben's) was green. Strange phenomenon.

Thanks. I didn't know the tecnical word for it. I know guys (twins) who mix up red and green. when they were little they'd tell their mom to stop at a green light or vice versa. They also got bad grades in pre-school because when doing those color coded things that make a picture when your done, their Christmas tree would turn out red with green lights!
