This writing gave a sparkle to the reader's eyes in this wonderful vision of sparkle in the eyes of a caregiver and dad. You are right in that sparkle outshines those of diamonds.
Beautifully written and appreciated.

The author's words are engaging, beautiful and creative. I pondered
on the theme of this poem and thought about people who care deeply. As
this author says - I am able to see the sparkle in their eyes. The artwork
is perfect and compliments these words. Have a Wonderful New Year!

I am glad you wrote about your son. You describes something very special about him. Especially during these times of wearing masks, his eyes must be very important to his line of work. I enjoyed your writing.

You are right that there are so many sparkles in this world, nothing can compare with the eyes of your son. You gave reasons and observations to support that. I agree with you.

This line impresses me the most: "his eyes have soothed many people,
so I'm told..."

Aww, such a sweet poem for your son. I bet he will love it when he reads it! Being a paramedic is no easy job, especially in these current times, that's for sure. Fair play to him!

Eyes are windows to the soul and the sparkle in your son's eyes appear to create magic around him. We look up to heroes, men of honour, great husbands, and fathers, and we want our sons to be like them one day. Thank you for sharing the wonderful poem. May 2021 be an extraordinary year!

    Thank you for that. I always say God knew I didn't know what I was doing, so He sent me good material. I was blessed with sons.

'Sparkling Eyes', is an exceptionally well written and delightfully descriptive piece. Penned with craft and skill. It was a pleasure to both read and review this talented poet's work. To me, this is a six. I look forward to seeing your next post.

I don't know much about free verse - have never really tried it. But I do know how it feels to have a son that has that sparkle in his eyes that others find soothing - especially when they are stressed or suffering. OUr son is a cancer massage therapist. I don't know how he can massage little children who are undergoing chemo or radiation treatment. But he does - and he soothes them. Kudos to you for honoring your son with this lovely tribute.

    Your son has a noble profession. He does what other people can't. He soothes their hearts as well as their bodies. It takes special people to do these things. Thank you, June.
