I have a dear and special friend
Who is only five years old
An angel from heaven god did send
So her story can be told.
She is sick with a disease so rare
It is hard to comprehend
How someone so little with this cross to bear
Has a very precious message to send.
Her name is Meghan and she is only five
She never complains, she always has a smile
With courage and strength she says I’m alive
Then inspires with a hug as big as a mile.
She walks to school each and every day
With her grandma in tow she has no fear
She has taught us it can never be okay
To give up without a fight or care.
Meghan you are the most precious one
Sent to us on loan from the heavens above
To inspire us all, each and everyone
With your gift of courage, laughter and love.

Poetry: The gift
It was never seen or heard
And so many people just thought it was absurd
But it filled him completely from within
And pointed
The Gift
Here’s my gift to you.
No strings attached.
Watching you open it
Is my reward.
The wonder in your eyes
As
You are the perfect gift...
I will love you and cherish
you for always and forever...
I know I'll never own you,
You're

He watched the angels give the news,
Of a savior to be born.
He watched the shepherds kneel by the manger
That first Christmas
A gift is what I give to thee
To drive away thine misery
I do not have much but I will send
My gift from my heart within
