When You Are Healthy Again (poem)
Attitude important for recovery
Someday soon, the sky will be blue again,
Wide open skies, as far as we can see,
When birds sing sweetly, from high in the trees again,
Life wll be good once more, you will see.
Dark skies happen, and sometimes they´re black,
that makes us feel the pressure of darkness,
Heavy, hot, dark pressure, with no going back.
Like a harness, holding us tight in its grasp.
But one day the harness can hold tight no more,
It stretches and pulls and finally.... snaps!
Our bodies no longer will feel bruised and sore.
We´ll start to feel free.... we´ll be out of its grasp.
Someday soon, the sky will be blue again,
And under blue skies, we´ll walk to the beach,
The breeze blows our hair, and we feel no strain,
And happiness will not seem so out of reach.
Your friends will be waiting to welcome you back,
As l lead you along the sea shore.
Get your feet wet, wriggle your toes, feel things that you have lacked.
Then let yourself go...feel it some more..
The waves will be rippling over your feet,
And the sun will be warm on your back,
The wide open skies, so blue and so bright,
You´ll finally feel everything is alright.
One day ,dear friend, blue skies will await you.
