This Last Three Years Poem by Janice M Pickett

2007 I found out I had breast cancer
2007 I also shattered my knee
Both events were shocking
and two operations in as many weeks
left me looking at my life
a little differently

2008
Brought the treatments I required
radiation for four whole months
and a change in my whole thinking

Life became more precious
and I became wiser and more grateful
for simply being alive

2009

This is the year of receiving
For much has come my way
I shall never take anything forgranted again

This is the year of great progress
The year of acceptance
The year of spiritual fulfillment
When dreams come true

I greet 2009 with confidence
and a stronger understanding of life
I have big plans which will be realised
For I am a survivor and a winner

HAPPY NEW YEAR
May you too have your dreams come true.
