Doctors Know a Praying Soul



Baffled by medicine's numb edge
Confounded by mysterious healing
Doctors marvel at who miracle saves
Despite themselves, physicians in tune
with the metaphysical allow introspection
Accept performance beyond their gift
Science unravels but has limitations

Conditions medicine fails to cure
Conditions physicians fail to erase
Point to a higher salvation

Doctors marvel at what miracle saves
Accepting that they and medicine cannot
heal all who throng through their doors
Doctors and nurses know and accept
A praying soul has hope of healing
A praying family surrounding a patient
Has hope multiplied a millionfold
Wrapped in hope’s miraculous aura

Doctors and nurses know piled evidence
Prayer’s efficacy delivered with no rhyme
Channeled through faith with no reason
When all efforts fail, we sigh and resign
Accepting the time has arrived


--My dream has loved paper so much for so long because it gave influence to the parched voice of a fashionista poet. Finding this outlet, that voice is now replete with expressive sound.
