My Special Wife

Facing hardship every day
Without asking why it came her way

Chronic illness is her cross
That she carries without fuss

She looks forward to tomorrow
Whether it will bring peace or sorrow

On a typical day she is at rest
Up and about she gives her best

A degree or career she has not
Yet her wisdom is often sought

The innocence in her eye
Tells she cannot lie

The cheerful smile on her face
Says that she has been touched by God’s grace

To our children she devotes her life
I love my beautiful special wife
