In Remembrance Of My Father Comments

Part - 2 your mind as a dream are taking you away to the past which was full of love and affection among you and your parents. May God bless their souls to rest in peace. This poem which is touchingly and movingly inscribed here is a great tribute to them. The last Stanza is much impressive and touching. Thank you dear madam for having a share this poem here with us.

Part - 1 Through this poem I came to know that your father is no more who was a teacher as well as an artist and had experience on cultivation. You had fine parents who had many sacrifices not only for you but also for the human kind. It was a doomed day for you when your father was diagnosed of Parkinson's disease. The memories appear in

I admire the great Poetess love and respect for her parents and the recognition she gave for their sacrifices and hardships for the family. As children, we could never repay those sacrifices but we can make them happy by doing the right things and tread the path they want us to be. Beautifully written. Superb imagery as always.

An insightful and emotional poem too as it tackles the issues of old age and sickness and how family members come together to cope up with problems brought about by these issues. The great Poetess expresses in detail the effects of Parkinson's disease in one's body thereby informing the reader a hands on knowledge about the disease.

A great and touching poem. A wonderful remembrance that captures the love, care and sacrifices of a father for the family and the wonderful bond among family members.

It is very sad to hear that your father could not pursue his love for artistic work as he grew older. Parkinson's disease cripples one's abilities. It is difficult for the loved ones specially, to watch him grapple with the disease.. But i loved your dream Valsa. May it come true that he sits at the foot of Michael Angelo to learn his art.

Valsa, we are happy to be born to good parents with values and high ethics. It is these teachings that has taken us this far in life. Anything and everything i do i attribute it to the tender care and love of parents. I feel the same way like you Valsa. As years pass by, the memory is even stronger. I always wished i could have done much more for them. An emotional poem with great love for your father......10++++

It evokes very nostalgic images particularly when Mr George Sr was affected by Parkinson's disease. Very poignant piece indeed. Thanks, Valsa ji. No superman, a meek soul A teacher, a farmer or an artist He was each of these.... Rolled into one

A meticulous and emotional poetic portrait of a lovely father by his grateful daughter. The poem brings to fore the formidable and down to earth persona of the poet's father, his love and sacrifices for his children. The gratitude of children for their parents has also been reflected.

On diagnosed of Parkinson's disease.........perhaps On diagnosis of..... He saw the disease weeding............perhaps wheedling a great poem. Parkinson's sucks, but at least 'you' found one way to brighten his life; i'm sure there were other ways his family brightened his life after his brush-holding days ended! to MyPoemList. bri ;)

Father's love is bright ever that brightens sky of hope of children. Like a warm breath of air he hovers memory. Remembering father is a great tribute of affection really. An interesting poem is beautifully presented that brings emotion...10

Thank you for sharing the beloved memory of your father, the secret of your artistic talents, May you be able to maintain the artistic talent imparted by your father. Best wishes.

Dear valsa ji, A wonderful write, Thakyou for sharing your fathers artistic aptitude and talents, His blessings are really your talent, His creativity is your is your asset. You are blessed by God almighty to follow his foot steps. Thank you again

A loving portrait of a An artistic father from a loving and artistic daughter. He imparted all his love, his teachings and his artistic inclinations to you as inheritance. Thank you for sharing your lovely sentiments Valsa.

Hi, Valsa! It’s hard to see our parents reduced in their abilities. With my dad the mind that was so quick compared to mine, that loved word games, that made him a formidable opponent in Scrabble, became slower and unable to remember things he always knew before. Later we guessed he had had some small strokes that caused this. What a pleasant dream! My father made an appearance in one of mine which I relate in my poem I Was Visited. Thank you for this tender reflection. Glen

I vividly remember reading and commenting on this poem in fb. Wonder why you didn't simultaneously post it here too. A very poignant write and am sure your beloved dad is surely in Michael Angelo's heavenly company. Peace, peace, peace. (10)

It is beautiful tribute to your father who was a prominent teacher as well as an artist at heart. Children can't forget the love and affection of father. All lines are touching.The last scene is painful. It may be quoted... He lost interest in everything We saw him sitting in his armchair So immobile, for hours on end His eyes stretched to a far horizon. May God rest his soul in peace.

This is a wonderful tribute, Valsa. This honours your father and brings out the complexities that made him unique. You draw out such fine elements of his personality, of his very being. A 10.

On diagnosed of Parkinson's disease His world abruptly lost its sheen He saw the disease weeding Its way into his life Suddenly grown old He lost interest in everything We saw him sitting in his armchair So immobile, for hours on end His eyes stretched to a far horizon...............A touching poem, may God rest his soul in peace. Poetess' love for father has made this poem very effective.

this poem is filled with love. i love this work. most of the time i feel that parents are among the mysteries of nature. may God bless them.
