Is It Enough

Is It Enough


What stretch of the imagination does it take
To imagine what lies in a Mother's wake

Knowing her health is at stake
And every heartbeat is a heartbreak

A mother who always was keenly aware
Having healthy was answered prayer

She kept prayers in her heart for the many who
Sat beside sick , deep in prayer, too

She prayed for the , the parents, and more
For doctors and nurses, and those who cared for

The poor little hearts who are stricken so young
At least once a month, prayers for every one

And now some years later an ugly face rears
The face she avoided for so many years

That kept her aware of how life's so unfair
Confronting her now, she's caught in it's snare

What does she do to protect him from this
It's way beyond a boo boo bunny and kiss
Beyond any stress that the asthma could stir
Powerless this time her eyes start to blur

And her prayers sound more desperate than they ever did
As she bargains and whimpers and begs for her

As she desperately asks all the why's and the how's
And questions her Lord about what he allows

And she knows that her faith is all that is there
To float them during this horrible scare

She can't take on his illness, his fear, or his pain
But can faith bring hope to their lives once again

And is it enough to keep her from going insane
While ripping him away from this abhorrent bane

Wishing that your son, and your entire family is bestowed with the energy and courage to fight through this very difficult period in your lives

spoken from the heart of a true mother... this is beautifully sad.
