Excellent message and beautifully written.

Grant,

In my heart I have so much love for you. In this life we will be friends only, but I want you to know I love you dearly. It breaks my heart to know you may have lost vision in one of your eyes..It makes me want to cry out in pain and from grief...I pray every evening for you to have it back, for a miracle to happen.
Take care my brave and sweet friend:)

Hugs and a big kiss,

5/5 Ingrid

Yes old age is no fun, I need coke bottles to get by.

This was beautifully expressed and it challenged me to be more thankful for the beauty God has placed around me. I live in inner city UB so it's sometimes hard to remember how wonderful God's creation is. (: Thank you and God bless.

Grant I'm so sorry my friend. Please take care and follow orders your doctor gives you . I know how you men can be.
Your poem was written with ease. You have a natural talent it flows with out effort..

Okay, first Off..I LOOVE the title :]
it was very captivating, made me ruuun to read the poem, hehe!

New found love for the dirt outside
Earthworms digging way down inside
Fresh mown grass of emerald green
What beauty now my eyes have seen

this stanza was reallyyy good..thought I don't get the word "mown"..overall it was very well written =)

The glory of a rose in bloom
Early this year but not to soon
The setting sun lights up the sky
In a colour display, to please the eye

I love this stanza a lot too, I think it's my fave one..even though the whole poem is really very well written.
I usually think that the poems about life must be written by those wise, mature & decent people, this is why I really admire anyone who writes about life in poetry =)

I love how your sight was never lost even after growing dim it got better again by looking at the beauty of life, no matter how dim it might seem to be :)
I have to comment on some errors though :

A world of colour once was had
I don't get this line..did you mean "A world of color I once had" ?

Early this year but not to soon
just change the "to" into "too"

G, the poem is great I love it :)
Write on
Glad to have checked your poetry =]
