OUT OF THE DARK

Out of darkness, into light
as I watch a lovely sunrise.
Scattered clouds make it interesting–
reflecting yellow, gold, pink on my skies.

Such is this cancer journey,
a dark diagnosis for me,
but each team player is doing their part
to ensure I will be cancer free.

Chemo treatments start in two days–
a blessing in disguise.
It will shrink the unwanted tumor
to a safe-surgery size.

Do I see this as entering darkness?
No, I’m heading for light.
When all this process is over,
I know I will be alright.

Yes, there’ll be clouds along my way,
trying to block my view,
but they’re only temporary,
as healing light shines through.

Faith, trust, and a good attitude
are keys to being cancer free,
along with loving, healing thoughts
from my extended family.
