of course عيون عليا

you are right , but we often use the present simple not the continuous

but if u are discribing a movement or an action that usually takes up long time , u can use the present continuous

like

it's raining

the birds seem singing

and so on

keep in ur mind that

the trees are green
is not in the present continuous

do u know that ?? if u want me to explain it further , i don't mind
