         Beautiful, well composed Blitz poem, Brenda. I loved all of it. Maybe tricky but it turned out so well. Congrats for trying this fruitfully. I appreciate it a lot. By the way thanks for mentioning my name as the writer of the forum introducing John's Blitz poem.

            Thanks Rosina...
            If I hadn't seen that forum you posted...I wouldn't have started my journey to find out what it was...So Thank you.
            
            Things are so hectic right now that I miss alot of great articles.
            
            I'm glad I caught this one and that my writing appears to be good for a Blitz Poem ~ my very first one ever.

      Beautiful Blitz poem Brenda. Thanks to John and you we got to learn this form of poetry. Trust in God helps to bear the pain. He always shows the way when we feel lost and worried. Faith gives strength. Hope things improve at your end. Have a good week ahead. Thanks John for sharing.

         That trust in God does push me passed the bad moments, even when I don't understand.
         
         Doing the Blitz poem was different.

   Good write Brenda! Thank you for sharing this one John. Im starting to understand more a variety on how to write this one. Maybe a few more, and I'll be able to write mine too. Soon.
   
   Regards to you both Bredz and John.

      Thanks Gianella
      It was a bit tricky for me, but I finally got it.
      
      Of course, it helps if you have those numbers right.
      I actually had one down twice which really messed things up.
      
      I'm sure you will get it.  You  are quite determined when you want to be...you even convinced me hospital food was good.

   It was really good Brenda! I enjoyed every meal. Half of them were my favorites since toddler days that they just made it healthier and added some twists. Healthier means either less salt or no sugar. But still taste great. I love exploring various twists of cuisines. Although not with too much spices as I can't tolerate overflowing flavors and aromas. Not to disrespect the cuisines of others. I still enjoy some of their dishes.
   
   This is were prompts come in handy. When you need a theme for some form of poetry and you don't know which one to write about.
   
   Will think about it over the course of the week.
   
   I'm open to suggestions. LOL.
   
   Stay safe Brenda. Ice-Cold Weather is tough on the joints and muscles. I hope power is restored. It's best to invest on some alternative power like Solars or of same kind on emergency cases as such.
   
   Stay blessed and warm.

      Gianella...
      You got that right about those aches & pains. 
      
      Cold weather is not a friend to painful joints and then when you have to be outside it makes it worse.
      
      If only money grew on trees..then perhaps a seperate heat souce.  Maybe one day.

   This Blitz poem covers such a range of emotions, Brenda. It is beautifully written. Reading this poem made me feel like I was walking down this path with you. Our hope is in God when life is so very difficult. I love the quotes and song also.
   
   Thanks for posting Brenda's. poem John.

      Pamela
      Thank you.
      
      I imagine you feel alot like I did the other night or early morning.   
      It's so hard when an illness hurts you or someone you love and you feel like there's nothing you can do.
      
      Putting our trust in God certainly helps.
      
      Keep getting your rest even though I know it gets tiring, but you'll be back up to par before too long.

   Thanks John for sharing Brenda's Blitz poem.  The way you described that night, Brenda, is almost palpable.  Not having access to help made it even worse.  Relying upon your spirituality and belief in a better place also shined.  May God bless you both as you take this journey together.
