what is a miracle?
it doesn’t have to be
something supernatural
just everyday happenings
that have turned your
life around noticeably
for some people it means
freedom from a situation full of woe
a relationship
a way of life
or even
from a troubled country
today at the preparation for
a wedding tomorrow of
one of the daughters
a dream comes true
the happiness is obvious
however, only a few years ago
these people were struggling to be
accepted as citizens in this country
so hopeless it seemed at the time
but they are determined people
of good character and integrity
which led to their acceptance
but the father used to say that
he dreamt that God spoke to him
and it would come true someday
so they thank God for their miracle
and minimise their own mammoth effort
