Gravity Defying
Exploring the celestial
there is my child, acknowledged as special
reckoning the stars with eloquence
freely propelled, bereft of spastic persistence
maneuvering his wheel chair-turned spaceship
defying gravity of disability along miraculous workmanship
verily mirth-filled
exuberantly thrilled!!!
Now, unbound from angst of bumps’ torture
anticipated by mother's heart upon mind's posture
h e r e am I wondrously ecstatic
basking under pleasure of dreamy merriment, so therapeutic
delighted at this worthwhile surreal moment
indeed transcending magical engagement---
to wake up verily thankful to the God of miracles
Who specializes in impossibilities*!!!
*Luke 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
