When it was time,

For you to stand in play and assembly lines,

You stood in OPD and testing lines.

When it was time,

To hold your hand and meet your class teacher,

I hold your trembling hand and met your doctor.

When it was time,

To sit and review your school days activities,

You sit and discussed the next date of chemotherapies.

When it was time,

To carry a bag full of goodies to satisfy all your childish binges,

You carried a bag full of injections and syringes.

When it was time,

To triumph and smile at your exam grades,

You looked up with soulful eyes at the number of tests for the next day,

In all these moments of trials and trepidation, my child your one smile brightens up my day,

Cause by that one smile you have overcome and fought to survive to see GOD'S another beautiful day.
