as i walked through the hospital corridors <br />i saw this child coming towards ne <br />her head was shaven and very red. <br />she looked up and smiled at me <br />and made my heart skip a beat. <br /> <br />in a voice so soft that i could hardly hear <br />she wished me joy and good cheer. <br />i knew right from the start <br />that this child had a loving heart. <br /> <br />for even though she was in pain <br />from everything that she had gone through <br />and it was hard for her to walk <br />she stopped and smiled and started to talk. <br /> <br />she was born with a sickness at birth <br />and was daily fighting for her life. <br />but she had such faith in god above <br />that she would be alright <br />and knew that she had to fight. <br />this battle that they said she could not win <br />but to her -giving up was a sin. <br /> <br />i started to choke up inside and the tears started to roll <br />from my eyes.she gently wiped away my tears. <br />and whispered gently in my ear. <br /> <br />if only the world could see and feel what i have <br />locked up inside-that god has given me <br />there would be peace and harmony. <br /> <br />for the lord has shown me what is on the other side when i die <br />but! i will be here for a very long time. <br />for there are many hearts i've yet to touch <br />before i am taken away. <br />and true love will forever stay. <br /> <br />i started to choke up again, and when i looked up again she was gone. <br /> <br />till this day i ask myself who could this child have been? <br />that put faith back in my heart and showed me <br />the unconditional love from god above. <br /> <br /> <br />? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?<br /><br />louis rams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mystery-child/
