bob-- you should read my stuff when you're tired more often; that way I don't have to cringe in fear every time I see your name on the replies for the threads. You should post the poem about your grandfather. Grandpa's are so great.
Doe-- I'm glad you got that too. Thank you for reading!
Leanah-- Thanks! And welcome to the YWS. I hope you're enjoying it so far. PM me if you need anything, okay?
Got YWS?
"Most of us have far more courage than we ever dreamed we possessed."

I love the emotion in this poem. Even without actually seeing your grandfather, I feel almost like I've met him. Good Job! Perhaps a little more rhyme would have been in place, however the mood is still captured perfectly.
The bird that would soar above the level plain of tradition and prejudice must have strong wings. It is a sad spectacle to see the weaklings bruised, exhausted, fluttering back to earth. — Kate Chopin, The Awakening
