Wednesdays At Six

Wednesdays At Six It’s my night to meet with Liz To tell her “bout my private biz" She mulls it over then tells me how it really is You see it’s her job To listen to me cry and sob Imagine that… She gets paid the listen to me Most therapists say: “Having a little anxiety attack? How about some nice Prozac” Or Can’t sleep, feeling lost and alone? “How about some nice Trazadone” Or “Manic Depressive? Feel like a Bum? How about some nice Lithium” Not Liz… She gives appropriate drugs Better yet she gives big hugs Encourages me my thoughts to share Teaches me to live again if I dare To break free from loss and pain Knowing from the truth I might gain MORE FREE TIME FOR BOTH OF US! On Wednesdays at six Pat LeDuc 3/7/18 For Liz I'd give everything to see her again on Wednesdays..miss her so much

Sad when those who understand us pass away, sometimes we never get to replace them.... A lovely dedication to your therapist...

We need to let people know what they mean to us. I never hang up from my son without us both saying "I love you" Thank you.

Glad you have Liz. Friends are like flowers: they grow only in the right climate, with loving care.

Liz has passed..She took care of me as my therapist and got me on the ride to recovery. Bipolar disorder is takes a lot of roads some twisty or straight. She helped me get on the right on. Thank you for reading my poems..:)) Pat
