I have been away for some time...and I will explain why at a later time. I hope you enjoy this piece.. Myrna

 My Way


I am often asked 

"What is it like to be almost blind?"

And "How do you use your other senses?"

After much thought,

I believe I have my answers.

Being blind is....

Hearing the whisper of stars,

Taating the flavors of time,

Touching the colors of love,

Inhaling the scent of life...

It is simply...seeing it all my way.

I really liked the flavor of this. Your words ring a resonance with me as I lose my hearing and know that at some point I may be like my mother, unable to hear even with the strongest hearing aid. I'm grateful that my myopia and astigmatism is easily corrected by eyeglasses and that I have no sign of cataracts… Yet. We all have to make use of all of our faculties that we have left. You have not lost your faculty to write well, especially poetry, and I love that.

Welcome back and be well,

Ron

Nicely Done as usual, Myrna

I'm taking a broad view of your words, as I feel each person,in their own way carries a certain blindness, that we each, fail to recognize until:

"Hearing the whisper of stars"

we know that something in us has changed."...It seems your in good company,
``````````````````````````````````````
"Shut your eyes so the heart may become your eye
and with that vision look upon another world."

Happy New Year Myrna, May all your dreams come true in 2015

Visions of A Skylark Dressed in Black by Aberjhani

“The woman or man who is a poet, or fiction writer, or playwright, or all of these, is engaged constantly in a jazz ballet of vocabularies, passions, genders, histories, perspectives, death, love, and life. The music of revelation announces itself to
