Silently the the white stuff fell
It called to me, it did compel.
All night the quiet, white spread
As I lay snoozing in my bed.
Finally I could wait no more
I got my humans up for sure.
Out into the snow white yonder
The landscape fill my head with wonder.
Off across the field I scurried
All around the white stuff flurried.
I danced and pranced all around
My ball with me new youth I found.
Playing about just like a puppy
Then home for breakfast, I am so lucky.

Female, wife, full time mother and Grandmother. I am not as happy go lucky as I used to be but I am still bubbling along on simmer! I have three handsome sons all grown and flown.The youngest married with a beautiful wife and two sons of his own. Back in 2010 I was working, running a home, driving and socializing then bang in a split second all that was gone. I had an accident at home. I broke my back, not for the first time, I had broken it 10 years previously as well. Unfortunately this time I had broken it really badly and it was truly messed up so I had to have two operations. I was told before each operation that the outcome could mean I spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair. Still as some guy once wrote "I am still standing " yes "better than I ever was " I no longer use the walking stick . I had lots of friends before the accident but when things like this happen, you loose most of them. Their lives move on and mine stood still and so they left me behind ...I know that is just the way life is but it hurt and always will. Then I looked around and saw those who were still there for me, these friends are the roses in my garden they need to be tended well. They are the diamonds in the dust. I will of been married 53yrs this comming year. I have found different ways to approach life, use my pain befriend it almost...yer right , well that is what they tell me at the pain clinic ROFLMAO ...... if only I could! I have found an outlet for my fears, frustrations and night terrors . I have started writing poetry if that name can be applied to my writing. I hope I do not come over as a moaning winger. I hope I am past all that. I also hope that you might see how the poetry is moving from very dark through the grey and hopefully in to light.
My back is no longer straight it is C shaped because of the injury and I have lost two and a half inches in height but my Pilates and Core teachers have helped me to stand up as straight and be as strong as possible. Pain and depression are still hanging on my arm but I have weapons to use against them and if I say so myself I cope well.
I have made lots of new friends, real diamonds. I am also very grateful for all the support and help I have encountered here on Wordpress. Hugs and welcome to everyone who visits.

So cute xxx
She is the best 💜💜
The pictures are so pretty. The dog is so precious 😊
Ruby is our precious, she is nine years old but snow makes her a puppy again 💜💜💜
My dog that passed away at the end of October was the same way. He loved the snow.
They do live snow don’t they
Yes they do 🙂
💜💜
She found that ball under all that snow, so cute.
Yes it just got buried 😁💜
The scenes are eerily beautiful (probably more so because I live in the tropics).
Yes I doubt you get much snow there. I do love a snow scene, it’s always better if you can see it from inside in the warm though😁😁💜
Fun stuff.
It certainly is with Ruby 💜
Sounds like a lot of fun, Willow
It was Ruby loves the snow 💜
Lovely poem.
Thank you Miriam 💜 happy
How fun – my first smile of the morning. Thank you dear.
I am glad to help 💜💜
Thoroughly enjoyed seeing Ruby in the snow. Also love her “song”! 🤗❤️❤️
She really adores it Betty 💜💜
I can tell 😊❤️
We finally had a light snow here this morning, but not enough to stick. So pretty coming down… hoping for more. ☺️
Lovely when it’s falling but lethal when it starts to thaw then freeze 💜💜
Yes, ice is the worst. Do take care! ❤️❤️❤️
I will do, and you must too. Our middle son has already sprained his ankle!
Oh no! I hope his ankle heals quickly. ❤️
Fingers crossed so do we, he is doing as he was told by the hospital. Rest, elevate and ice 💜
No fun…. Using crutches too, I presume? Might try slathering on some arnica cream every four hours.
Yes off work for a couple of days then insisting he must go back to work …men !
Hope his ankle is much better now!
❤️❤️
It’s definitely improving 💜💜
