This is amazing. Well done.

I confess that prose poetry often leaves me cold because it is hard to do well, but this example did just that. As I read these two paragraphs, I heard rhythm, like poetry, though a rhyme scheme I could not find.

The phrases framed the images like pictures in an art gallery, adding to the poetry element, that kept the reader diverted away from typical prose.

The message is clear. "We start life with rough edges, but life has a way of smoothing off that roughness, until we reach our last day."
