Leukemia

The smallest warrior
             Goes into battle for life
                He will win I know
             For he runs with wolves
          Look at him but fear him not
          Though he is a fierce warrior 
           Look at his fight and know
       His heart beats his victory song
      The one God will give him strength
                The smallest warrior
                Caemon is his name
                  Learn of his fight
                 For he is not alone
              His pack surrounds him
                     Energize him
   Friends and family will dance to his victory
           They will learn about courage
                     Of Gods grace
           Look upon him he is special
                         He is
                 The smallest warrior

Vicky Tsiluma October 19, 2012 at 3:01 AM Whoa! Caemon sounds like a brilliant person - a warrior with his loving cheering squad. I can't begin to imagine the emotions and the lifestyle changes that accompany leukemia. But I know family and friends play a major role as caregivers. Well written Edmond!
