                                          The coveted snow
                                     as depicted on postcards
                                            Universal price
                                       Receptive to sympathy
                                    discomfort - FM symptoms

Paula Goldsmith November 26, 2024 at 11:11 AM What a wonderful yet sad write/picture you have here. I do not know anything about it. So sorry you have it. Have a blessed day writing away...............

Kim Rodrigues November 25, 2024 at 7:33 PM Interesting…pain is evident

Duke Beaufort November 25, 2024 at 12:03 PM Anne-Lise, I'm lucky that this is one condition I don't have (yet). A lot of people suffer, and it's unfortunate. We should do what we can to provide aid and comfort. Does the snow help relieve the pain or is it a symbol of the pain people feel--the irony of the beauty and the reality. Thanks for writing this one. Anne-Lise Andresen November 25, 2024 at 12:08 PM - The pain gets much worse in the cold, Duke :) - (I've had this condition for many years... there is no cure) - Many thanks for all the poems you have commented on, I really appreciate your feedback with kind words :) - hugs

Sara Kendrick November 25, 2024 at 11:35 AM I would think that having FM would be really hard on a person and very scary when it happens to affect the heart rhythm, or blood pressure. Thanks for sharing. Sara K

Joseph P. DiMino November 24, 2024 at 8:57 AM I am saddened by your suffering. The whys I do not know...the fact that you choose to write despite the pain shows great courage and determination...an inspiration to us others.

Victor Buhagiar November 24, 2024 at 8:45 AM I only saw snow once in Switzerland. It is not good for me, I'm sure, as I suffer from some arthritis. Hugs.

John Read November 24, 2024 at 3:53 AM For many the snow is a welcome guest, for some it's not so welcoming.

Hilda Greenhough November 23, 2024 at 9:05 PM The explanation gave a clue. Cold snow and pain can be difficult to deal with.

Tom Cunningham November 23, 2024 at 1:47 PM A terrible thing to suffer from, I don't think there's a cure and many people suffer in silence and pain. Tom
