Easter Miracle
All dolled up in Easter dress
Watching through the window glass
At children searching all around
For colored eggs upon the ground
Her spirits high as clouds in sky
Her smile bright with vivid eyes
She lived each moment for the day
Reality was just a play
Not long after her birthday
Devastating news came way
Plagued with cancer from within
A battle that she couldn't win
Doctors guessed how dice would roll
Survival was our only goal
Friends and family joined in prayer
Asking God, her life to spare
Treatment had no good avail
Emotions raised and love tears fell
As little princess slips away
I can't accept her final day
I placed my head upon her chest
And listened to her heart at rest
I held her body close to me
Then opened up my eyes to see
A bearded man with hands of red
Was standing there beside her bed
Bathed in light and love divine
He said he'd come another time
I knew I'd seen a miracle
Not something passed as medical
The latest news of her condition
Was cancer now was in remission
Nineteen years ago to date
That girl is living out her fate
But now instead of Easter best
She's all dolled up in wedding dress
