I know there is a higher power above,
He guides me and shows me much love.
The love of God, our Creator is true.
He
will never ever disappoint you.
*
I marvel at the things God has done for me.
At eight, I almost died from drowning in the sea.
My father saw my long hair floating in the water
He pulled me up before I drifted further.
*
I was nine and needed emergency surgery.
My parents stayed all night to ensure my safety.
I had acute appendicitis and was at death’s dark door.
A shining light in a tunnel guided me home once more
*
Later in life when a deadly cancer struck,
And my doctor in Trinidad gave me up.
I put all my trust in my Maker to heal me.
That was 17 years ago, and I’m alive as all can see.
*
I remembered the woman with the issue of blood,
Who touched Jesus' garment and obtained a flood,
Of healing power which cured her disease.
I knew that he would do the same for me.
*
I had no garment to touch, but I sang like a lark.
With fervent prayers, I touched his heart.
He directed my path to a doctor in Miami.
Through that doctor, he healed me completely.
*
As if that was not enough, a car accident I survived.
The airbag burnt my right hand but I came out alive.
My lips were badly swollen like that of Miss Piggy.
I’m healed and blessed and can tell it all in Poetry.
