Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
nonet of change

Glimpses of Violets

my legs no longer wander the path,
exploring dappled wooded glens,
glimpse sweet purple violets;
multiple sclerosis
suffocates my joy,
chair tied, housebound;
words reach 'cross
where arms
fail
