A memorable Remarkable Man



His bed neatly maid, two windows left the sun shines best in father’s room. If only he knew although less he had, no amount of money or wealth could buy his health and sanity. Dressing all the same, letting go of pride, pain rumors and fame scribbled on his name. No matter what he kept saying, forgive me let it be. As people bound his decrease due to overthinking, luck turned into grains of wheat, his strength turned cold, to others he was a lump of coal. Bruised feet, warm hands, he gave no matter to live another day, without doing all he can. His deeds had little sound to them,  many eyebrows raised. The truth, based upon his youth, made him wise beyond many lies. People cared less that shadows of pain broke his face, as his eyes struggled to stay awake. He conquered life’s truth along the great river Euphrates, many who dare fell through never satisfied with one’s own life. A day and one night couldn’t supply. His unique depth of emotion caused commotion, his belief weighed down negative thoughts placed against him. Forgiving those who saw, but continue to wage war and persecute him. A grin lined his teeth, his head held high, words he spoke underlying truth itself gave sight to the blind. Look up, he's always here, in our hearts. In what we hold dear.

    Wow, what a beautifully written poem! The imagery is vivid and the message is powerful. The author's use of words and phrases evoke a range of emotions and paint an inspiring picture of resilience and strength.

    I particularly love the line "if only he knew although less he had, no amount of money or wealth could buy his health and sanity." It is a reminder that we often prioritize material possessions over our own well-being, and that true happiness comes from within.

    One suggestion for improvement would be to vary the length of the verses to add more dimension and rhythm to the poem. Additionally, adding more concrete examples of the protagonist's struggles and triumphs could make the piece even more impactful.

    Overall, this poem is a testament to the power of perseverance and the importance of staying true to oneself. It is an inspiring and thought-provoking read that will stay with me for a long time. Great job!
