My Mom and Me

Back sixty-six years ago my mother has told me
That she and I had a fifty-fifty chance to be
And yet doctors don't know all God's plan for our lives you know
He has gven some of us gifts to tell and some of us to show
My mother is one who has shown God's Love over all these ninety years
God has Blessed me to witness her Grace, Love and Beauty without any fears
Throughout the years her Faith has never waivered
For we both know we are Blessed and Highly Favor

My mother had a debilitating stroke twenty-nine years ago, and the doctors did not give her long to live. However, she is still around today. Good write.
