grandma's lesson

my grandmother and the cancer

And she’s fine

And I’m not

And she’s strong

Where I’m weak

 

Her body fragile

Her mind steel

Her heart beats

Her spirit yields

 

I learn from her

She learns from Him

I dry my tears

I pray again

 

She never stopped

curt to the point of being cryptic but packs a powerful emotional punch
