Cancer Leads To Mama

Dual roads to Shangri la
Painted with optimism
External flame keeps them
Perpetually lit and hopeful

Child with rainbow ideals
Leaves this earthly plane
By reason of cancer
Arrives at this heavenly paradise

Enveloped quickly in comforting arms
Saturated with purest mother love
Moonlight smiles in the distance
At their spiritual reuniting

I can see it, and know we are heading there, and it is our REAL home, where we will find more love than we could have ever found on this plane.
