    Poem Commentary

    Introduction to someone I have known my whole life.

    What Can I Say?

    Don't feel bad for me if you see that tear in my eye.
    It's for you, not for me that I cry.
    Not hard to meet, even easier to find.
    Only way to miss me is if you choose to be blind.

    Hello will always get a smile of mine.
    Help, only word needed to bring me to you.
    Now, if all else fails, write a note, my treasure for the rest of my time.
    BUT if you choose not to meet me and you had the chance to,
    No blame, not yours, not mine. 

    YOU'LL never know what YOU are missing, hope you never find out
    Because I may not make a lot of noise or stand out at a dance,
    The saddest day in my life will be your not taking the chance.
    Only to know the shadow of doubt.

    I know this because to live with me my whole life,
    I know what I can do and what I would do for others.
    So I will never turn away, always smile, say hello and offer help in strife. 
    A hand when needed because, when the time comes when you need the cure 
    I will not hesitate to leave this world that you may stay.
    Hope to meet you someday.
    It will be my pleasure, of that I am sure.

    Meeting people has been the pleasure of my life.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
