Ailing

A cool winters wind; 
A friendship in need;
A call one could not bare;
The worst kind of health scare;
Incomprehensible destitute now;
True allegiance, duly proved;
Recovery, slow but true;
Will the scars ever heal.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Strange coincidence, your reference to 'a cool winter's wind'. I was diagnosed with cancer in November of 2003, towards the end. It was a close call. 'Will the scars ever heal ?' - the physical scars remain if faded, but the emotional scars do heal. Thanks for sharing David.

David,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
