No More Blues for These Tired Eyes

No More Blues for These Tired Eyes

 

Dear Sir,

I write with regret

to inform you ..

There is a tendency

these days

for my eyes to play

more tricks

on me than usual ..

Regardless

of the time of day

or indeed,

the circumstances ..

It seems

there is a failing light

and I have lost my way ..

Indeed blue,

is well out of reach

and now

denied me altogether ..

          Prayers and warmest regards. I've had problems as well on and off and it could be the hypertensive fluctuation as even my prescription lenses at such times are quite useless and even bothersome.

            Thanks CB .. my problem started with a non arteritic anterior ocular ischaemic neuropathic episode or NAAOIN .. 🕶️😎🕶️ .. Neville

            Rather sad but intriguing write. I had hoped your eyes were better. Its one of our senses that a lot of folks take for granted.....not me! Wonderful write..x

              thank you Christina8 .. 💜x

              I googled NAAOIN, a condition I was not aware of, and am saddened to think that this has afflicted you. While your vision may be affected, your words are always strong and vibrant. God bless dear friend, hoping for the very best for you.

                quite possibly appreciated more than you might imagine my friend ... much more than muchly even 🙂

                dear Hope,
                I write to renew my subscription
                I tried shopping in-person, but the market stalls
                are empty...
                (your insights
                are my introspection's
                guiding mantra)
                absolutely love this Hyung
                beautiful in tone
                and empathetic eloquence

              • Parisab

                Your words have the gift of sight,
                May all your senses be right.

                • Neville


                  thanking you kindly and true dear Parisab ... N

                    Poignant, endearing, blue. A craftwork sir. May all be with your sight.

                    • Neville
