Yorkie’s staring at me vacantly
Like I’m a strange tattooed bikie
Sitting on him, me anxiously crying away
Why am I crying, he quietly says
Looking at me with those big silver eyes
Pondering whether he’s hurting me
Is the ride too much pain
Is all the walking a physical drain
No !! None of that I exclaim, crying tears again
I’m crying wondering, if I’ll ever get there
Crying, because I cannot wait to be there
Crying with embarrassment, for the tears I’ll shed when I’m there
Suddenly, Yorkie barks out at me
Oh Ivor, keep pedalling, toughen-up and and you’ll arrive
Yes, me and my companion Yorkie, have become friends.

I hope she’s not too harsh on you. Don’t try to push things too hard Ivor. Getting back to full health is what matters, not how fast you get there!

{{{{{{{{{{{Ivor}}}}}}}}}} I’ve done my share of crying and talking to Solomon. You’ll get there. I understand and have felt every word of this. We’ll get there! We got this. ♥.

YAY for your new friend Yorkie who wants to help you be all you can be! 😉
Don’t be too hard on yourself! One ride at a time! You WILL reach your goals, I just know it!!! 🙂
You know I’m big on crying…I cry when I’m happy, I cry when I’m sad, I cry at weddings, I cry at sweet TV commercials, I cry when babies are born, I cry when anyone else is crying, I cry reading certain poems, I cry looking at a beautiful piece of artwork, I cry when I hear certain songs…ETC…well, you get the picture. I cry a LOT! 🙂 Don’t ever be embarrassed to cry. We need more people like you in the world, Ivor…people with deep, precious feelings, compassion, big hearts, wonderful souls!
(((HUGS)))
