Iris - Day 315 : 5 Minute Freewrite: Thursday

Iris is a Greek Goddess who is also an Egyptian character as well. I don't recall that name at this time. I don't remember what Iris stood for or did.

Iris is a name for many different flowers. I saw some of the pictures when I looked up the word iris. This species looks very colorful.

Iris is one of the parts of the eye. 7 to be exact. There are seven layers of the skin, seven layers of ... damn the knowledge escapes me at this time. Seven is an important number though.

Pokémon has a character named Iris. I never watched but like two minute of Pokémon. That show annoys me. Void of anything intellectual or entertaining. Just words with a lot of flash image.

Iris - Siberian. I don't know what this connection is.
