[hometext] => This is for my nephew, Benji, who just found out that he has cancer.
[bodytext] => He was not expecting The news that he just heard He tried to think back And remember each word. Was there any hope Did the doctor say They would try and fight it In every possible way. He could not think straight He had to clear his head He would have to tell his family And that is what he dread. How would they take it Should he just lie Did he really have to tell them That he was going to die? Cancer was what the doctor said That was taking his life How could he tell his kids And especially his wife. Things like this is not suppose to happen To someone as young as he He thought he would live for quite a while And not die at thirty three. When the doctor mentioned cancer And that it was wide spread He could not remember after that What all the doctor said. His mind was racing On where he needed to start He found the answer Once he stopped and listened to his heart. He got down on his knees And prayed to the man above To give him the strength and words To tell those that he loved. We are not suppose to question these things Even though we do wonder why God put us on this earth And only he knows when it will be our time to die. There is a reason for everything that he does But sometimes it is hard to see But we must trust in our faith more Because one day this could be you or me.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
