Thank you for caring



When I fear I would be too frail to walk alone
You accompanied me
When the dizzy spells made me see spots of white
You walked beside me

Simple acts of kindness:
From being patient,
Lending your tolerance,
To an offer of a warm drink to soothe the throat

The get-well wishes you send
Reminds me to take good care
Helps to soothe some of the discomforts
When the pain gets too hard to bear

Not that these go unnoticed
It is just that I don't say it
Thank you for caring
Your kindness touches me

Hi JY, nice to see you around.

The poem wasn't written specifically with you in mind, but I would like to thank you for caring too.

There is at least once that you walked beside me when I was too frail to walk alone. There were times you sent me cards in hope to cheer when I was feeling down.

Thank you for caring
Your kindness touches me too

Yes, JY. I know you aren't wishing for compliments. When will you be back?
