Second Chances 2

Second Chances 2
Written: by Miracle Man
1-21-2019
Shortly after SCA
 Had kicked my keister,
I saw my cardiologist 
Just one day past Easter. 
He dubbed me Lazarus 
Upon entering the room,
Referring to my clinical death 
I had reason to presume.

I can't forget this meeting
Nor why I didn't die,
He told me I shouldn't be here
And couldn't explain why.
He told Ernestine too much
 Was going against me to survive,
But God had other plans
Prayer kept me alive.

Being referred to as Lazarus
 Still brings tears to my eyes,
My leaving the hospital
Was to many, a surprise.
But God didn't want this
To be the end of the story.
He wants me to tell others, 
“It's my story, and HIS Glory”
