To be innorant and blind and to see inside......very thought provoking is a night to think. Thank you. Very good poem. Like Lincoln's Gettesburg address, short and to the point.

This one is a simply complex one. So much thought, so few words. Intriguing, thought-provoking and insightful are the adjectives that come to mind.
Bravo and encore

Wow. Short poem but it spoke volumes. Each line speaks truth: ignorance is bliss but not many choose that path; and faith and truth in life is often not found until it's too late. A very deep poem indeed. Go pat yourself on the back and have a beer to celebrate :) Cheers.
