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 Rockman
