For starters, I thoroughly enjoyed the poems this week. Though the sheer volume of work was a little scary at times but careful consideration and delicacy yielded actual fun from it.
I myself resolved in the beautiful poem On His Blindness that the writer is trying to convey a message of Using your wisdom and individual gifts that were bestowed upon you "...(T)o serve therewith my Maker..." Don't hide them for your own selfish gain. Trade them in and build on them to further your wisdom and gifts for Christ. Just my personal take. It was very challenging.
I agree, some of the work was intimidating and overwhelming at points. But I absolutely love the way you interpreted the poem. :)
