Pink Ribbon Prayers : Breast Cancer

written by Poet : Jeff Pelsang


Julia Jones got up this morning feeling on top of the world,

Positive and inspirational she loved her little girl,

Each day she woke she said a prayer to thank the Lord again,

She ended it with a final prayer to watch over her daughter and man,

Then she would rush to the room to wake her daughter to spend a little time,

An Angel of 3 as cute as can be with blond hair that was gold and fine,

"Wake my little princess lets start our day there's so much we must do",

"Life is precious and so are the moments I spend with little you"

Elizabeth woke with a kiss on the lips and a hug from her loving mom,

She felt so happy and warm inside from their ever special bond,

Each morning the same day after day till one-day something was wrong,

No bedside mom, no kiss or hug, no perfume that smelt so strong,

Out of bed she went with fuzzy slippers on skidding across the floor,

"Wake up mom you sleepy head", then she stopped in front of the door,

Her mother laid lifeless half hanging off the bed, her father crying as he kissed her mothers head,

Julia had fought her last fight and now she was gone, broken hearts and streaming tears she hugged her much loved Mom,

All week long she cried and cried from morning till the night,

Life without her was like a flower without sunlight,

Julia was burried Sunday viewed by family and many friends,

An end of a life a mother and wife to Cancers evil hands,

That Sunday evening Elizabeth her people singing outside the door,

She opened the curtain and it was surely certain that mom was loved by many more,

Across the road and down the street candles were glowing bright,

Thousands of people wearing pink ribbons sang hymns throughout the night,

This was the night to remember Mom and to say our final goodbyes,

A thousand Pink Ribbons, a thousand Prayers, and tears from a little girls eyes.
