You did it!

by Ruth
(England)

Well here we are my daughter dear
The day awaited for many a year
All the turmoil, tears and triumph
All wrapped up in a graduate gown.
You tried so hard to win this battle
and no one knows how hard that was.
From teenage years you have had to struggle
with illness always hanging in the balance.
The others seemed so strong and cheery
wanting to party,drink and be merry.
But for you the listless body was weary
and many a night you cried in agony.
Yet your heart was willing to see it through
and with gritted teeth kept going on.
The lectures you missed were so many
with days in bed followed by night oil burning.
You did your best despite body shaking!
Day and night you laboured on
'Will I be alright' your mantra cried
to worried Mum and anxious Father.
'Yes of course my daughter dear'
Our stock reply; but did we know
was this a delay or maybe the end?
You saw it through, I don't know how
but here we are and we are so proud.
Today is Yours, you've earned the glory
God bless you darling daughter.
