Special Victory

Freely surmounting impediment hill
            My special child propels himself with mirth
Geared up well by his wheelchair journey thrill
Signifying another milestone worth.
                        
Behold his triumphant contagious glee
Toward great well-being zest, he does flee
Perspiring, exuding thanksgiving spree.

      Such to me is a miraculous sight
            Highlighting answered prayer of faith’s might
                        Assured by divine grace against doubt’s blight.

Trusting the Lord, I keep peaceably still
            Assisting my son to enrich his dearth
      So he can be what God wants him to be
            Victoriously* soaring for progress height. 

*1Corinthians 15:57 …Thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
