If only time was her shield

A Haiku

Family photo of our Warrior taken by a loving husband, who remains in awe of his battling bride’s iron will!

Cancer in pursuit
She spies the New Year portal
Escape at midnight

Enemy not slowed
No reinforcements in sight
Troops huddle in prayer

But the Warrior
Unbroken and still fighting
Is strength and courage
