Mother's Angst
Agonizing over boy's incessant seizure-attacks
grieved with girl's lamentable worthlessness' woes
caring mother, heart-wrenched, weeps… frightened...
helplessly witnessing oppressive wrestling bouts against restlessness
her son’s infantile spasm epilepsy and daughter’s paralysis
now obviously progressing toward retrogression...
Yet...with love for her children, clinging in faith to GOD
Who knows what's best for them
she can verily triumph* with peace
to prevail against misery!
*2Corinthians 2:14 "Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ..."
