Poem

This story is about a mother and her little girl…and another mother and her little boy…
and how sometimes in life sadness and sorrow is linked with happiness and joy.

After years of happiness with her son…we find one mother crying
from the news his heart is failing…and her son is slowly dying.

The other mother and her daughter used to laugh and sing and play…
their life was one of happiness and joy…until fate took her daughter away.

The mother of the daughter in the midst of her sorrow decided to give
her daughter's healthy heart away…so that someone else could live.

So the doctors took her healthy heart and when the surgeries were done…
the one mother’s daughter’s heart now beats in the other mother’s son.

They meet up occasionally though they live quite far apart…
so one mother can thank the other 
and the other mother can listen to her daughter’s heart.

I imagine there will always be a mix of emotions…sorrow tinged with joy
when the one mother sees the gift of life flowing in her little boy.

I imagine in her heart sorrow and joy will also swirl…
when the other mother closes her eyes and thinks of her little girl.

But what I’ve learned from one mother and her little daughter and another mother and her little boy…is that sometimes amid the depths of sorrow can be found a little joy.

Certainly that’s not always the case 
as sorrow is not easy to mend…
but it’s nice to know every now and then
It’s joy instead of sorrow that wins out in the end.
