Thank you Poem to Mind Charity

I appreciate your kind words about my poem @Ross_Scope I have emailed thank you to the Mind Chairy because the help they gave me
Thank you poem to Mind Charity
One day I started feeling stressed and depressed and was not able to rest.
And I was feeling the best.
There were nights I cried myself to sleep.
That was till I was able to speak to a councillor at Mind Charity
Who started getting my thinking more positive outlook on life.
Then one day, I started to express my feelings and emotions through poetry writing
Which started fantastic joy in my heart again.
This renting a flame in my heart
I started to bring many smiles to other peoples faces through my poetry writing.
Which started giving me a sense of pride.
I started rising from my knees again
I am now starting to feel ten.
Now I started my day by writing an exciting new poem of my own
As I am in a good headspace now.
I use my blank page as a canvas to express my poetry
Which know to take a long road to learn the craft of poetry writing.
I started watching youtube videos to learn some techniques to improve poetry writing.
I started to make my poetry writing rhyme after some time
I started to shine a light on topics close to my heart, through poetry work.
I stop lurking in others shadows
As I started following my dreams
There are days I feel like screaming when things don’t quite go right for me
I started to use my failures as a learning experience.
Which has started in a glorious position.
I started with a vision.
I knew it would not be a given that I would succeed straight away.
My poetry writing started opening doors to new opportunities.
As I started writing positive poems about living with cerebral palsy.
As I started to inspire others people with disabilities to follow their dream.
I have started campaigning for change for people with disabilities through my poetry.
As I started getting people thinking
I started to stop people from sinking by lending a hand
I started giving back to the charities that have been a big part of my life
As the sun rises every morning.
I started by thinking about how I can help someone less fortunate than myself.
I started writing poems for different charities and setting up just giving pages for people who want help with the cause.
I even started a visual round of applause from family and friends for trying to help others.
As I started to smother negative thoughts from my head.
This has led to positive change in my life
As I am on the crest of the wave
I started to believe in my ability
I started having rebound agility to get off the mat.
I started looking out the window when writing my poetry.
I started writing poems about nature.
I started to get the feeling of nostalgia whilst writing.
My poetry writing started to capture many people's senses.
Which kind words to thoughts who read my poetry work.
As started to smirk smile upon my face as I learnt a poetry writing style
I started to perfect the style of writing on poetry.
I started to be unlighted through different ways of writing poetry

I just received this response from Mind CharityThank you for reaching out and for sharing your poem. It’s a lovely gesture, and it's great to hear you have benefitted from Minds services.
If you would like, you are welcome to post your poem on Facebook and tag Mind platforms and use the hashtag #FightForMH to join in and spread the conversation: : Mind on Facebook, Mind on Twitter, Mind on Instagram for our followers to see.
If you are interested in sharing your story and experiences, we do have a small platform called Blog for Mind, where you can submit your blog and we’ll review and let you know if we can publish it. However, we often get far more requests than we can publish or respond to. Unfortunately, that means that we are not always able to publish posts or provide feedback. The best place to submit something would be via this page > https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/your-stories/blog-for-mind/
You might also like to have a look at the ‘media volunteers’ section of the Mind website which gives you full details on how to use your story to help Mind spread the word about the issues around mental health > www.mind.org.uk/get-involved/volunteering-participating/become-a-media-volunteer/
