A bunch of dandelion weeds

Most of us have received a gift that we don't want nor need.
We politely thank the gift er and act as if we are pleased.
A good parent teaches at an early start, no matter what the
gift may be, have a grateful heart..
How to maintain gratitude when it doesn't meet one's needs?
Easy when an innocent child gifts a bunch of dandelion weeds..
What if you need companionship and time to mend but your
family sends you money, doesn't seem to comprehend?
Living alone I'm used to, being in pain, I'm not, expecting
family from out of state, would that be asking a lot?
It's one month this Friday, with two more months to go,
the healing of a fractured pelvis is excruciating and slow..
