This Is the Day the Lord Gave

I did not know then what gods there were And was never concerned or thought about But I do know for certain now He can come to us to any form. I had been attacked by the dragon “cancer” Threatening to take away *my talent to speak. I heard his voice, “Come unto me and rest” Lay down, thou weary one, lay down thy Head upon my lap, don’t be sad or downcast”. I did not see him positively in any of his form But I did feel him in a divine way never felt before. He came to me as a doctor diagnosing earlier Giving many years to live and roam the world over To see and to play with my grand children As if that’s not all, shortly with great grand children. That was the day He gave me the perfect health And relief from suffering, turmoil and labor. *• Cancer of the Vocal Chords ( in 1994) +++ January 30, 2015 Second Place win Contest: This is the day the Lord gave

Hello Ram or should say Dr. Ram. This poem was highly favored. I adorn you with high marks; therefore, 2nd place you are. "I did not saw him positively in any of his form..." (should be) "I did not see him positively in any of his form..." Congratulations! Sending you a smile and a hug, Verlena
