A poem for Tuesday: I am listening..

by Cynthia

I am listening..

Diabetes, what is it you are trying to say to me?

I’ve never really heard you before

Why are you speaking up to me?

Why now?

I trust you will tell me

This wisdom and truth you have to share

You surely must have something to say

after 25 years in there!

 

What do you think your diabetes would say to you if it was able to talk? Would your diabetes have positive things to say?



Here are links to other poems I have written:
Just for you diabetes... (A poem for Tuesday)
Cheek to Cheek (A poem for Tuesday)
Oh, diabetes! (A poem for Tuesday)
Diabetes (Diabetes Art Day poem)
Diabetes, I am sorry (Diabetes Art Day poem)
Because of diabetes… (Diabetes Art Day poem)
My Hands (Diabetes Art Day poem)
25 years (celebrating my 25 year anniversary with diabetes – 2/13/12)
What D-I-A-B-E-T-E-S means to me (fun with letters!)

 

Blessings, light and love,

Cynthia

Heather, You’re welcome and thank you so much! It means a lot to me that you took the time to leave a comment after reading my post. It’s not easy for me to openly share this “poetry” so thanks for the feedback. I checked out your blog – it looks really awesome. Can’t wait to read your poetry too!
