This week I’ll be participating in D Blog week.
Today’s topic:
This year, Diabetes Blog Week and TuDiabetes are teaming up to bring out the poet in you! Write a poem, rhyme, ballad, haiku, or any other form of poetry about diabetes. After you’ve posted it on your blog, share it on the No Sugar Added® Poetry page on TuDiabetes, and read what others have shared there as well!
*Note: I used to write ‘tons’ of poetry in high school and college, creative wring was my minor. But I haven’t written much if any in the last 15 years. I wrote a free form poem-like post last week that felt great to write. I am going to try a different one for Day 2 of DBlogWeek…
Dreaming of numbers too high or too low
lots of information I never expected to know
lost in a world that can’t be explained
watching, helpless to remove her pain
but she’s stronger than I am and smarter too
she remembers and does just what she needs to do
even though it’s just beginning, she got it I know
my brave little girl, will continue to grow
and I will support her and pray for a cure
and she will continue to surprise me more
even though it’s not fair and hard everyday
I will love her and cherish her come what may
This is so beautiful, thank you so much for sharing. Your daughter sounds pretty amazing, and so do you!
