Forgive my tardiness. It's a challenge to gather my daughter to type for me as I peruse these wonderfully uplifting poems! I always sit in awe of your talent, my friend. I am very blessed to be the subject of your poetic grace!

Many thanks, Katenina

Nicely done, Dolly. I'm sure she heard your words, for" When trouble saps our inner strength" it is always good to hear from friends wishing you well. Even when alone we face adversity, if our "inner hope are words of love that give us energy, "we (can) look it in the eye."

What beautiful words of encouragement! Thank you, Dolly! I especially liked how you understand what it's like to be sick and recovering from surgery. My favorite lines were:
"But when we win we feel the heavy burden has been lifted
as body, mind and soul survive, our faith is truly gifted;"

Beautiful get well soon wishes for Karenina. Your use of internal rhyme is great, as usual. It really is up to the patient to speed along their recovery and often takes time and a lot of hard work. It can be discouraging. It is true that a person can feel so alone even with all the support. I like your thoughts about facing adversity. With hope and energy, we can do it. judi

    You're very welcome. It's up to the patient to do so much of the work herself. That doesn't seems fair, as it can be a lengthy process. judi

What a lovely tribute and get well wish to Karenina. Your meter and rhyme sublime, and the message one of hope.

I feel confident she will love this, and will be back with us in no time at all. :)

A truly meaningful poem that outlines what happens and how trouble is dealt with when it comes. We accept it and do what it is we have to do with the goal of recapturing the way we were again. Nicely said and I'm sure that is how Karenina sees it, as well.

Hello Dolly.

Your rhyming poem describes circumstances surrounding one who becomes ill and deals with all of the unknowable things that come with that. Your poem describes the circumstances that Karenina has just experienced.

Nicely written.

Robert
