Little Benjamin

[irishman]

I wrote this poem for a mother of a little boy who had suffered so much. He had multiple surgeries by the time he was eight, and hung on to life with a thin strand. I never met the boy, nor do I know any of his family, but I know a God that does--and what a wonderful God he is. He is able; His grace is sufficient for all maladies; Our hope is in Him only. If he is still alive, Benjamin would be about 10-12 by now, and would have received an abundance of the sweet grace of God.

Little Benjamin

I shed a tear this morning
For a boy I do not know;
Little eight year old Benjamin,
Who has suffered so;
Who desires nothing but a normal life,
And has been struggling for even that;
But God

Wow. That was really good. Thanks for sharing, brother.
God bless,
Joel.
