Victorious Vanquishing

”But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1Corinthians 15:57 of the King James Bible

Vanquishing blight for victor’s flight
My heart is gripped with mother's love
Assisting son’s development height
While he propels himself above.

Optimizing promise of hope
Vanquishing blight for victor’s flight
My patience is stretched with peace-slope
As special child smites spastic blight.

Beholding each milestone delight
My faith trusts God for strength and grace
Vanquishing blight for victor’s flight
Possible upon prayer brace.

Maneuvering wheel chair with zest
My dear son conquers struggling fright
Secured around faith's caring best
Vanquishing blight for victor’s flight.

Beata, you write so tenderly with a mother's love and joy as you watch your special child continue to excel! Congratulations! Blessings! Your poems about the ways your son grows, despite struggles, always bring a warm glow into my heart. Continued prayers and blessings!

I really took this one in and to heart, Beata . Both my children have had childhood struggles dealing with impairments and mountains to climb. As a parent we have faith, but we have fears... their struggles are never theirs alone. Well inked and congratulations on your win.
