    Thank you. I can't take all the credit. I always said God knew I didn't know what I was doing, so he sent me good material. I was blessed with my sons.

I really enjoyed this, thank you for sharing.
Doesn't matter if it fits perfectly in a category, your love for him is clear as day. The wording choice is beautiful and I love the story you have running through.
Stay safe and I hope you have a fantastic 2021.

Your son sounds like a wonderful person, Yvonne. Wouldn't it be wonderful if God had made more people like him. You
must be very proud of him up there on the front lines fighting this virus every day. God Bless him and all the others who selflessly think of the welfare of others.
Well done. Nancy:)

    Thank you. I will pass that on to him. He will appreciate it. They don't get the recognition they deserve.

This is a good entry for the sparkle challenge. You can tell a lot from a person's eyes. It's sweet that your son hold so much compassion in his eyes. This line should say things: shiny thing in sunlight,

Yvonne,

I have read several 'sparkle' entries to this point and I like yours the best of all. It's so full of warmth and sincerity and pride. *smile* I also like that you picked one special thing about him to show off so much of him! Thanks!

    Thank you. I'll pass it on to him. I worry about him and this virus, but they suit up like hazmat people. Flak jackets have been issued for several years now.

I see nothing wrong with sparkle. Many here needs to have that sparkle like he did. The eyes reveal many things and you would know your son better than anyone on this earth. Always keep these good memories. It will strengthen you when needed the most.
My blessing to you.

What a wonderful commentary and tribute to a fine son! I love the way you've repeated the line about the sparkle in his eyes. I've seen that sparkle also in special people, and it's wonderful thing to behold. Eyes tell you so much about what a person is like - it's true what they say about eyes being the window to one's soul!
Thank you for sharing.
Susan

Aw, what a lovely photo, Yvonne, and I think your poem is gorgeous. A free verse is exactly that, free! You can write what you want, and you have. He sounds like a son any mother would be proud of, and I can feel it in your words that you do. As a paramedic, he must have seen some very sad things in the last year, with so many people coming down with the virus. We owe so much to people like him. Well done, my dear friend. :)) Hugs from your SATP xx

    Thank you for those wonderful remarks. I'll pass it on to Stewart. I was really worried about him and this virus. He's suited up like a hazmat team, though. Still . . .
reply by Sandra Stoner-Mitchell on 02-Jan-2021
    I can quite understand that, Yvonne. I would be, too. I'm glad he does wear protective clothing, and masks. You can't be too careful. It can't go on much longer, surely. xxx

    I hope not. It will never been the same world we grew up in. What a shame!
