Poem
Albedo effect in full force after appreciable snowfall After descent of eventide luminescence of freshly fallen snow still illuminates the terrestrial firma bright even upon the onset of dusk, when dark shadows betoken the edge of night analogously herald outer limits invoking intimations of the twilight zone, which visibility amplified with appearance of full moon accentuating brilliant blinding white across the bucolic expanse. No matter familiarization with precipitation falling to Earth as ice crystallization, nevertheless a child like mirth bubbles up inside of me, the shear beauty worth more than words can spell. These transitional bifocals I wear become naturally tinted (upon exposure to radiance) courtesy law of reflection which states that, on reflection from a smooth surface, the angle of the reflected ray equals the angle of the incident ray essentially darkening material comprising lenses for glasses, which constituent chemicals for lenses come in four types of plastic: polyethylene, Trivex, polycarbonate, high-index polymers, and glass. After looking away from brilliantly shimmering raiment displaying full regalia donned courtesy the nearest solar body, one might see dark spots or patches within field of vision, which ocular entities called afterimages. Afterimages happen because the cells in your eyes that help you see, called photoreceptor cells, get tired from the bright light. There are two types of these cells: cones and rods. Though myopic, I still marvel and feel blessed at ability to experience capability, no matter nearsightedness insync with color vision deficiency (CVD) diminishes fullest breadth and scope to see with perfect (meaning 20/20) vision ever since a wee lad way back in second grade nearsightedness became quite evident and difficult to ignore forsooth in while deep in the womb visionary genesis made with slight inability unable to distinguish one or more chromatic colors also in the chromosomal store and so-called “floaters” like my own private kaleidoscope played tag across field of view in the process concentration wore out ability to attune other senses to lend even a shade now as an older fellow, who dons bifocals with pride eligible by optometrist/ophthalmologist to undergo laser surgery to shine on (me) lens and render spectacles superfluous as necessary guide once anonymous philanthropist pens adequate check for costly procedure, whereby ocular weakness to hide, whence ability to see keen as a hawk with zoom empowered by tens meanwhile this wayward fellow will pilgrimage to the oracle of Delphi hoping the priestess can deliver like some divine miracle worker for near blind and if prayer (to be free of glasses answered) will become prophet (written on subway walls) well nigh and wordsmith will no longer make spectacle of himself, additionally no longer at the mercy per groping in the dark for misplaced eyewear to find able to discern celestial objects far away in the sky which cosmic phenomena t’will hypnotize this inquisitive mind.
