Country Lane

Country Lane

The leaves are a luscious green

Flowers, the most beautiful I have seen

The waters are so calm

Every living thing has its charm

To appreciate so dearly what I see

Its all there to inspire me

To carry on this fight

Every smell, sound and sight

Did I take the beauty for granted ?

This seed of doubt, in me planted

That I will see another day

Its for others to say !

I just know I must be strong

For no one knows how long

.........................................

Walking down this country lane

Nothing now seems the same

I was told I only had months to live

But now each day God does give

I wake up with resilience in my heart

This beautiful world and I will not part

Wonders surrounding me, giving me hope

This effort and will to tackle every slope,

Coming from this wish to be free

Of this cancer inside me

When given the news, I cried so

But now I truly know

The meaning of life, with all its splendor

And the glories of mother nature

Thank you so much Tracy for your comment. Having lost so many to cancer, we must all support research to one day make it a thing of the past ! x

This is a beautiful and very strong write.  I am hopeful that there will be a cure.  Until then hope is the evidence of things unseen and sometimes what we do see creates that resilience in the heart as we see the greatness of God's magnificence along a country lane.  Excellent write.
