A Prayer for Robert

I met him through my sister
He made her his wife
Three children later
Confronted with strife
The big “C” word
Cancer is the name
We've only just heard
No one is to blame
The doctors fear the worst
The cancer is very bad
The kids are aware
With a tear for their dad
I've been lost for words
Until this poem I now write
All I have to offer
Are prayers day and night
I sometimes doubt their effect
Then more prayers I try to find
Really, how hard is it for me
I don't face the grind
Please Just a thought or two
For Robert, Linda, and the kids too
I know it is not much
But it is all I ask of you.
Now that you've read my poem
I thank you for your time
For it is your kind thoughts
That helped to make it rhyme

Balmain_Tiger, I really enjoyes this poetic joureny by you as I had a really bad year last year as I came extremely close to loosing two very close people in my life but was given a miracle and lost neither. Thank you for sharing your awesome talent and for pouring your emotions into it. I for sure will pray for you and the family. Wonderful Poem.

Thanks everyone for your kind words. I beleive in some sort of greater power and even the smallest of wishes and gestures help to provide strength to those in your thoughts. On behalf of Robert, Linda and her daughters. Thankyou for your strength
