#SeasonalSonnets: 22nd Dec.

Hello my lovely readers!

Today's #SeasonalSonnets entry is in celebration of a huge physical and emotional achievement for me, which is the absolute best present I could've asked for at this time of year.

I am now able to sit out of my wheelchair on a different chair once again - and do so comfortably enough and for long enough to have a proper cuddle with my dogs.

I did it for the first time in ages last night, and it was an utter delight - especially when Darcy then decided to take up residence in my vacated seat.

22^nd December

Today I revel in the joy of sitting,

a rather different kind, though – out my chair! –

and of the fact that it seems only fitting

I could do’t with my favourite furry pair.

I’ve written here before about our cuddles,

but they’ve mostly been at quite a distance,

and yesterday, t’my delight,  my muscles

let me sit in comfort with only slight resistance.

Moreo’er, I was relieved of any pain

by small, warm bodies resting at my back,

who, should my spasms surface once again,

were ready to prevent full blown attack.

I am forever grateful for my pups,

‘cause they both do a great deal t’lift me up.
