Here I am
Arms wide open
Eyes full of stars
Searching for Mars
Please don’t keep me waiting
You see my friend
So many times I nearly died
Or allowed the blindness of this world
To make me cry
And now I see it was a shame
To lose myself this way
And so it is I stand here
Full of hope
For what may be
Now that I have come to understand
The truest deepest
Part of me
Is still alive
And full of smiles
You see I needed all of those tears I cried
They were only sent
To water the growing seeds
Of my dormant self
For now here I stand
Knee deep in clover
In a garden
Slowly blossoming
This is a GREAT poem. The content, as well as the title!

I love it when sometimes I get that feeling I can really be alive again Ivor.. it comes and goes… this came out of one of those times… I hope when I come alive fully I can come and visit you and have a cup of tea… I dream of those encounters.. Much love, dear friend… ❤
