That's a great imager for small heat. The imagery is great and tactile. Well done!
Genius ๐ฅฐ๐คฉ I Love It โค๏ธ
Makes me think of a massage chair.
OMG, this reminded me of what my mother used to say, "If this doesn't 'chase the worrisome cramps away,' Iโm calling a priest or a mechanic. Something in there is clearly misfiring." ๐ ๐ ๐คฃ
Been thereโฆ felt thatโฆ
Love this and soooooo glad those days are behind me!
The heating pad is my number one friend at times, love how you wove it into a haiku
Ooh, I've never tried one of these before! Sounds nice!
Yes, heating pads have saved my life during my period. Nice one!
Oh the power of some well-applied heat for aches and pains. Wonderfully original take on the challenge and with such resonance. Really well done
Very well done my friend.
Well, I can't relate to those particular cramps, but I do appreciate some heat for sore muscles. Great haiku ad a solid entry, Tiffany!
๐There is something truly victorious about this piece! I could hear the 'hooray' at the end because of your choice of diction with the word 'retreats'.
I have my trusty Heat pad - yes. Such a comfort. Hope u feeling better. Time to learn some Fun facts: Heating pads can increase blood flow by promoting vasodilation, which helps relax muscles and alleviate pain. How Heating Pads Work Heating pads provide heat therapy, which is known to increase blood circulation in the area where they are applied. The heat causes blood vessels to expand (vasodilation), allowing more blood to flow to the affected area. This increased blood flow can help deliver oxygen and nutrients to tissues, promoting healing and reducing discomfort. The Heart And Brain Benefits of Increased Blood Flow Pain Relief: The enhanced circulation can help relieve muscle tension and pain, making heating pads a popular choice for conditions like menstrual cramps, arthritis, and muscle strains. Muscle Relaxation: Increased blood flow helps relax tight muscles, which can improve mobility and reduce stiffness. Healing Support: By improving circulation, heating pads can aid in the recovery of injuries by delivering essential nutrients and removing waste products from the tissues.

Is it really that good, Tiffany? I have nagging back pains sometimes I would like to get rid of.
Those cramps are the worst! Loved your Haiku Tiffy!
That's an out-of-the-box take on the challenge, Tiff!
This is brilliant, Tiff! It sounds relaxing. ๐ค
