“A Mother’s Legacy…Reveled in Faith”

Like a gladiator at the coliseum arena, enthralled in a fierce battle; my mom delivered a formidable fight, but the cancer progressed like a thief in the middle of the night;

     And so the family tried to be strong; relaxing the mind at minimal ease;
As we faced the harsh reality, of a grotesque and frightening disease;
We witnessed our mothers courageous spirit---to the very, very end; but most cannot imagine, what my mother had to defend; Every day she defended her life with a display of honor, grace, and dignity; And so we forget not my mother's journey; her life, as well as, her leg-a-cy.

     Her winning smile was a delight to see as she lay in bed just as fragile as can be. So, I dig deep down in the pits of my soul, relinquishing all my fears; oh, how I wish I were tenacious like my mom, but I cannot contain the tears; I pray to my God, "Dear Lord, allow me the privilege to partake; " Then, suddenly, I hear a voice..."It’s time to let go, dear daughter; For The Lord makes no mistakes…"
