From your writings Pam I would have never ever guessed or imagined that you had a stroke. Your most vivid description of your experience leaves a spectacular image in my head. But Im thankful that you're capable to describe it. Im sure that this ordeal left you in this haze that remains. Thanks for sharing

Thank you for posting such a moving piece to remind the reader to appreciate what we constantly take for granted. So many emotions and a bit of fear approaches as read each line. Best wishes & health!

Comment from Pantygynt
I have known several people who had suffered strokes in the past -- I think most us probably have as they seem to be getting more and more common and occurring at a younger age. You will have been lucky to have recovered so well. The two I mentioned didn't and were apparently vegetables for the rest of their lives. You are the first person who has attempted an explanation of what it is like to go through this experience. I have to say i found your poem fascinating. The were no nasties over the display this time either.

Comment from royowen
My dad had a major stroke which rendered him paralysed from the neck down, including his voice, he was without voice, but not so without a lucid mind, it was so cruel, so I have an idea what it's like. Beautifully written again, with faultless rhyme, meter, and as always, eloquent, well done, blessings, Roy

I like the artwork you choose to go with your poem
It is a perfect match
You captured my attention from the first line to the last
You see I can relate to your poem for i had few strokes
Praise God I'm much better now yet, I will never be the same,
This is what I call a food for thought poem
Thank you for sharing

A very well-written poem with a great tip to notice when we may have a stroke and we can find a medication to reverse the damages when we ask the doctor for the wonder medication.

Comment from Alexander Vasa
Hello Pamusart, this poem reminded me of how far medicine has come. First response and early treatment are essential in these situations and you wrote about it so sensitively ... and rhyming. Nicely done and I saw no errors, and your author note helped personalize the poem. Good to see a work of yours tonight. The picture was interesting when you open this window. Cheers, Ana.

A good poem with a good message. The rhyming felt forced but did not take away from the message. Thanks for sharing and keep writing and reading....
...............
Sweat which covered my shirt.......fell off in spurts
Sunshine blinded my eyes....haze arose in my skies.
As I mentioned in my review to me it felt forced. It in no way takes away from the messages.
