Show me how you see the world,
you're twice as clear by half -
Too quickly I unsheathe my sword
and n'er sure when to laugh.
Knowledge is the game I chase,
a Master and a Passion -
Once instilled I'll not erase
what I believe my ration.
Yet if in craving such as all
another I do injure,
this for me, a lowly fall
which nothing soft can nurture.
Show me then in truer light
the ways I see not clearly -
for yours is knowledge, beaming bright,
and I do love you dearly.
Be my mirror.

What a beautiful poem. I believe you see the world very clearly, and it has not been to kind to you at times. Truthfully, I do not know anyone who is so knowledgable as you, you know everything about so many topics. I found that reading journal entries, I received a whole education about the galaxy and astronomy. About a man who was homeless and a whole town was against him, only to figure out that this man was Jesus and you were teaching us something. You have written poems that I cherish. You see very clearly my friend more clearly than many. So looking back at you from my side of the mirror, I see a wonderful woman, filled with so many beautiful facets, a teacher, a giver, a poet and most of all my forever friend. God bless you Luddie.
That is all of us from time to time
