Tears of Joy

The lord above,clasping hands and giving thanks
                 the gift of life, hearing my prayers
                 daughter could`ve been at opposite side
                 put a halo over  surgeons head.

                2012 may have been start with gloom
                embracing life with gratitude of simplicity
                my world i thank is not in turmoil
                beautiful grand daughter,healthy daughter.




THANKS TO THE STAFF AT JAMES COOK UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL. FOREVER GRATEFUL.
