Here,
where there are
stands on wheels
and plastic bags
marked with long,
medicinal names
Here,
where children
must endure
fear and
so many
****** of pain
Here,
also exists
a world of perspective
and a world of kindness, too
a world of hope
and understanding
with dedication
true.

Here
Another world exists
and my heart
wishes to fly into
each and every room
and offer comfort
to these tender souls
to tend to them as flowers,
to watch them shine
and bloom
Hush now, no more tears
Let the pain disperse
into the air
We know that you are fighting
and that life is not always fair
Here
the doctors and nurses
are tough angels…
unable to be soft
yet not hardened
kind and strength-giving
as they administer the
remedies
to sweet children
at all ages
and all stages
not letting their disease
be pardoned

I know that the most strength
Comes from the Beautiful Child herself:
And she is my shining,
amazing being,
my Pixie of hope, my gorgeous elf.
I send my prayers
Up above
And thank the Universe
The stars
For giving us a freedom
A strength that is only ours
For releasing that unwanted thing
For giving us a miracle
And I raise my head up to the skies
Bless the spiritual
mental
and physical
And we continue
This process
of medicine
to keep it all away
just once a month
for a few hours
and exactly
four days

"May she always
and only be healthy"
are the words and prayers
to go with this endeavor
yes, only Happy and Healthy
from this day
onwards
into
her own
Vitalic
Successful
Forever

(Amen)
for my daughter
