Miraculous Day
 


How do I attempt to explain?
How do I find words to express?
My life was changed forever
The day I received a miracle

Definitions and parameters
Shedding labels of the years
Emerging from my cocoon
Feeling free as a butterfly

Patient for so very long
Never in my wildest dreams
Had I imagined the feelings
I experienced in that moment

On that memorable day
I shed the shackles of diabetes
Gave up my seat at dialysis
All because of a selfless gift

July 13, 2007 was the day
My life changed forever
My second chance began
With the miraculous blessing
Of my kidney pancreas transplant
