Miracle Worker
Miracle Worker
by Rick Rucker
That, from a ugly lump of clay,
You have moulded me today!
That, in what seems like a minute,
You have saved what others would say "Bin it!"
You have saved a wretch like me,
Healed my Heart, set me Free!
We were walking on the sand,
And you slowly took my Hand,
And told me, soft and true,
That I would always be with You!
Your words evaporated my Fears, so frightening,
Like a searing bolt of Lightning!
I couldn't even hide,
How happy You made me feel inside!
I had told You, also true,
That I only wanted to
Live together, build a Life,
With You starring, as my Wife!
And, if you felt the same,
That means I won the Game!
I'll hold my medal made of Rhodium,
Standing on the top step of the podium!
As they keep the crowds at bay,
My song they'll loudly play.
Though it may seem a little stark,
The speakers will blare "MacArthur Park!"
Why would this piece be chosen for me?
It's really simple, don't you see?
I never thought that, again
I could be that Happiest of Men!
