It was not the best of days

Skipping winter and heading south to our little house by the sea in Florida is wonderful but comes with the price of missing loved ones back home. But two of our loved ones, my daughter and granddaughter have been here in Florida about an half hour away. My granddaughter had a cheerleading competition in Disney. Well today we were going to visit them we were so excited but my husband woke up with a allergic reaction to something and was not well. So the day took a sad turn and we were not able to see them. My husband is fine now but my sadness lead me to write this poem ;
I miss my girl ...

I was so close yet so far from seeing her today.
Now that I know I can’t see her, I am missing her even more today.

Today I was supposed to see her, but things did not work out that way. She is there to stay and I am here to stay, not how I planned the day. I am sad and my heart is heavy and I’ve been on the verge of tears all day. I was so close but yet so far from seeing my beautiful girl today.

I prayed for a miracle, I didn’t want things to be this way. I was hoping she would appear at my door cause I know that was the only way I would see her today. I just needed to hug her and hold her close for a bit. I was so, so close but yet so, so far from seeing my beautiful girl today.

So knowing it was not in God’s will, but mine for this day, I surrendered my will not quite understanding why I was so close to seeing her today. I will try to stay busy and not let the hurt get in the way. I was so close but yet so far from seeing my beautiful girl today.

There is a need in each of us to be heard and to express what we think and feel without censorship or fear of upsetting anyone.

This is why I choose to self express. Thanks for reading if you took the time to do so :)
