Billy Poem by Colin Ian Jeffery

A very touching and heartfelt poem. Billy still manages to love life even after overcoming many obstacles. Good.

Thank you, Colin. My love just passed from ALS (Motor Neuron disease) , and with Billy, you capture her bright soul articulate with mind intact, though speechless, as well; and it helped me remember her smile, which she kept to the very end. It can amaze us the way some have to leave this world, but, more amazing is the courage some keep when faced with the end.

This poem is wonderful and truly deserves being selected as Poem of the Day. Congratulations. Well written.

Congrats, in a material world who has time to think about a human being, mentally deformed.

Very touching piece of art, of human tragedy and the hope that is ever lodged in the human heart. Thanks for sharing.

The soul is immortal and once we are free from earthly shell, we can sing nonstop. A poet has both the privelege and the pleasure to do this while still alive, in his own ll

So very heart touching! 5 Stars full

Very well done and thoughtfully expressed. One has to ponder the life of people that suffer brain trauma, yet they are just as alive and human as all people are and they still have consciousness.
