First a loss of close-up vision, and then a gradual blurriness of long-ditance. Honestly! It was like a switch went off in my body..."You are now 40 -- time for your vision to go"! Talk about Twilight Zone! (I remember that TZ episode too!) Love that the eye is green in your piece. I have hazel eyes, but I always wished for startling green...Virginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15381185614415585450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4615771382535734644.post-39479807163831861812009-08-03T22:17:08.388-05:002009-08-03T22:17:08.388-05:00Thanks Sherry!

Have you ever seen the Twilight Zone with Burgess Meredith as the last man on earth who wants nothing to do but read, and then breaks his glasses?<br /><br />I guess we both has eye doctors on our mind lately.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08425809129458460775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4615771382535734644.post-62880246347555366022009-08-02T22:31:28.851-05:002009-08-02T22:31:28.851-05:00Very insightful comments Robert !

I like the different elements of this, it makes me think of the necessity that different parts of our body have for each other.<br /><br />When I write (since it's fantasy) I sometimes think about what it must have been like in a medieval society for the poor. Surely most couldn't afford such luxuries. I had the thought to write a character that had that flaw. You don't see it often in books.Robert W. Leonardhttp://www.robertwleonard.comnoreply@blogger.com
