When They Took Away the Tumour

Neville

When They Took Away the Tumour

 

When they took away the tumour

They left us with a scar

 

Yet my love goes so much further

Than the star I named for her

 

Some scars go on forever

Whilst others not so far

 

Yet my love flows so much deeper

Than all the oceans sailed for her

 

When they took away the tumour

They left us with a scar

 

Yet my love is so much brighter

Than the brightest super nova to be sure

 

When they took away the tumour

They left us with a scar

 

Yet my love for her is stronger

Than the strongest super-steel or super glue

 

I just wanted you to know that

So I send it in this scribble

      Super sensitive write - I can empathise - My wife had kidney cancer 7 years ago and had to have a kidney removed - the surgery was touch and go but she pulled through and is still clear. She has a 14ins scar but I love it - it means she is still with me. Thanks for posting this Neville.

        Yes, glad is all well now. We might never know what some folk have been through. We had special prayers for a couple of church members. But they 'departed'. Some say there is healing in that - relief from pain, etc. I might have supported them more, but did not know them too closely.
