Tomorrow is my day to take a breath

Team Carrie Powwow For Hope Fundraiser

ends today. It is about cancer death

and about the survivor and thriver!

~

Remission is another term for life

We made it through to fight another day

In life, there will continue to be strife

We end our bids, the T-shirt sales today!

~

Next year will be here before we know it

We will try to get to the powwow then

Missing it this year I don’t like one bit!

Life happens and it can’t be helped, Amen!

~

Leukemia took my sister Carrie

way too soon, when she was just fifty-three!
