So I Have Decided To Write Poetry

SO I’VE DECIDED TO WRITE POETRY

RobertBenThoughts.blogspot.com


Stroke recovery - poetry or journal,
I’ll try poetry from thoughts internal.
I don’t know the rules as one might,
I just write what seems right.
Will it be pleasure or will it be pain?
I just hope you think it’s sane.

Stroke survivor page helps me while low,
Having this stroke is one big blow.
My story is different, as you know;
But much in common so here we go.
You’re all so encouraging even when sad,
We have each other so it’s not so bad.

It’s been over a year since that day,
I miss the games I used to be able to play;
Now I long to run a 5k which is far away,
Why didn’t I do that before that day?
My friends, family supporting me,
So I feel it’s meant to be.

That’s it for this first try
I’m amazed I haven’t started to cry.
How did I do what do you think?
Just don’t send me a link.
Pray for me as I pray for you,
It’s the best I can do.
