Togetherness – Baydreamer Writes ~ Lauren Scott, Author

Togetherness in Isolation

Isolation could slide into a deafening-silence loneliness,
Suppression of joy needing a breath of a gentle breeze,
Or it could fashion new moments with love and
Laughter even with a faint line of essential distance.
Adapting to this unique state of ‘togetherness’
Takes time like slow healing of energy – it’s not the
Ideal means of making postcard memories, but who needs
Ordinary? For the both of us in these circumstances, there is
Nothing like being comfort and company while isolating together!

letting inspiration in during Covid
finding the silver lining
finding the smiles

I was so overwhelmed in a good way by the outpouring of compassion from yesterday’s post, that this poem came to mind. But be aware, I wrote it on the fly. 🙂 It may not be the best, but I hope the message comes through loud and clear. I also learned that pink is the color for gratitude, so my rose is shared once again.

Hesitation can be a crucial sign
Listen to our intuition
But it may just be fear in disguise
Holding us back from consolation.

Kindness pours in from around the world
Taking time to listen with a big heart
Lending a hand through encouraging words
Sending virtual hugs to erase the hurt.

I am humbled by the compassion
I am grateful for the suggestions
I ache for the pain you feel, too
But moving through is the best we can do.

I will catch up on reading blogs later today. Thanks again for all the wonderful suggestions that I will look into. Like I mentioned yesterday, one day at a time.

Hugs, Lauren 🩷🙏🏻
