When someone you know isn’t feeling well, what this person most likely wants more than anything is to feel good again. Though all of us want a fast recovery when we are sick, we don’t always get what we want. The body seems to heal itself at its own pace, so we must be patient and look at the bright side as we recover. We must grab every ray of sunshine that comes our way and embrace it, especially each ray that comes to us in the form of a get well wish.
If you know someone who isn’t feeling well, consider sending this friend, co-worker, or family member a wish for wellness. The ray of sunshine you send their way will make them smile and brighten up their day. It could even help them feel better, so don’t hesitate to send that person your get well wish. Send one of the following get well soon greetings if you are at a loss for words.

Get Well Soon Poems
When someone you love is feeling unwell, a short, cheerful rhyme can lift their spirits, letting them know you care.
- If I only had magical powers,
the whole world I would scour
to find you a potion–
I just have a notion
you’d be well in a matter of hours.
- A little bird told me,
while chirping from a tree,
that you’re confined to bed.
This well-wishing note,
to recover, I wrote,
to soothe your poor sick head.That little bird, I hope,
when next within my scope,
will say you’re on the mend.
But if, perchance, that bird
has not a cheerful word,
another note I’ll send!
- My dear friend, it saddened me
to learn that you are impaired.
I wish there were more I could do,
but I want you to know I care.My dear friend, do let me know
if there’s anything you require.
I’ll happily run for what you need,
or anything your heart desires!My dear friend, I wish you peace
and a very speedy recovery too.
But for as long as you’re laid up,
tell me if there’s anything I can do!
- To my sweet and wonderful friend,
who is feeling a little bit frail:
I hope that you’re soon on the mend
and looking a great deal less pale!A friend as good and as kind as you
deserves only the very best care.
With this poem, I send all my love,
because, sadly, I cannot be there.
- If I were a witch, I’d cast a spell,
or concoct a healing liqueur.If I were a hummingbird, butterfly, or bee,
I’d fly to your side in a blur.If I were a mermaid, I’d call upon Triton,
or dive for sunken treasure.If I were lavender, or an orchid or rose,
I’d blossom for only your pleasure.If I were a fairy, I’d dance in a ring,
or ask my queen for a boon.If I were an empress, I’d give up my crown,
if only you’d get well soon!
- Darling, your courageous smiles that inspire me to cover miles
Your soft speech that melts the stoniest heart and gives hope to the earth
Your liveliness, alongside your loveliness
I dearly miss them all, which makes me to reach out and call…
I call forth your speedy recovery, sweet heart.
- I cry when you cry, my love
I laugh when you laugh, my dove
And, because you’re sick, I’m also sick
That’s why I’m saying, dear, get well quick
