    Renee Robinson

    I am in the final stages of metastatic colon cancer. I have just finished my 26th round of chemotherapy. In 2 weeks, I will have another scan to see which organ in my body Cancer has chosen to dance with next. It has been a very difficult time. My writing has helped me to deal with death as if it is some sort of supernatural being I need to fight and expel myself. I have to go deep within myself and find my own inner peace and magic. Writing makes me happy, perhaps it is my armor. Perhaps my story is meant to be shared. Words are Power. Words are strength. Words are my legacy. Words touch the heart, the soul and the spirit. I pray my words help in the fight with cancer. Is it possible words can heal?

      It is a squalid time. The body grows tired of being a body. Sweat. Always. A thin film of it on the skin. Do not say dewy. Do not say glisten. I dream of endless green. Of wet. Of rain hammering the Earth. Of buds sprouting. I want to insist on life

      Firefly Angels

      Firefly Angels

      Dancing around

      Tiny light shines

      Beacon to be found

      Guiding my journey

      Leading the way

      Giving me courage

      Everyday

      God's small helpers

      Gentle and free

      Lighting the path

      So that I may see

      Firefly Angels

      Watching you flitter

      A wonderful sight

      Sky full of glitter

      Songbird

      Beautiful songbird

      In a cage

      Spreading her wings

      Memories of old days

      Unable to span

      Wings in flight

      Unable to sing

      In delight

      Along with her freedom

      Happiness taken

      No songs of love

      All is forsaken

      No one to hear

      No one to see

      No one to care

      No one to please

      Confined behind
