Dearest Physical Therapist

Dearest Physical Therapist~Ryan:


?When you see the rough coating on a
pineapple, do think of me.......

The outside, rough and hard to open.
The inside, soft and loving as can be!

Thank you for all your work with me.
Four full months, with a-stubborn donkey.

Who, by your magic, is now quite happily,
Out of bed........and so very, very, ambulatory!


Thank you!
Pangie

They are Angels; they could be doing jobs that pay a lot more. They want to serve. Love serving. "Thank you for all your work with me. Four full months, with a-stubborn donkey." What did one donkey say to another? Hee-haw!

In CA, they are more than well paid! Not a Burger King salary. I never asked but I know the neighborhood he lives in. Expensive. Medical people here, well paid and great personalities... but, he is an angel to me. A did give him the card. It had a big pineapple on the front. Love your joke 3/29! Pangie

Hi Belle, I want to thank both you and Lisa who have compassion and understanding. A basic requirement for poets!! Without those, how can a poet write? Poetry is far above popularity or winning. It is about one’s humanity and care for others. Especially, in a poetry community like this. Humbly, Pangie xx

Dear Pangie - Hi. Your dedication and tribute are wonderful. Great to hear you are doing better after a long hall of healing. I know of your words and of therapy as well. Yes, it is not an easy road. Thank you for sharing and again I'm glad you are doing better. I'm sorry its been a long time since I've visited your page. Remain well. (smile)

Lisa... no apologies, please. Glad you understand of what I speak. I wrote from my hospital bed every morning at 2am. And every day since I Landed here. I had great care. I am not a great reader...I like writing far more. So apologies go to you.I love your picture. Send me a soupmail if I do not read you. It’s never done on purpose. I love readers with HEART AND SOUL,and that my friend, Lisa, is you. I will pray for your health and mine. My passion is true poetry from one’s heart. Pangie xo
