The following poem I wrote after watching a special on St. Jude Hospital on TV while living in Wichita Falls, Texas and a member of the United States Air Force. I do not have cancer and hope to never have the dreaded desease, but I could feel what the children on TV feel while watching the special. If anyone read this poem has the desease and wants to print it out and hang it up, I give him/her permission to do so.                            Timothy K Robinson Sr.

The Cancer Poem (for victims of cancer) Although I have cancer My life does not have to end I don't have to stop my smile Because I'm living all the while. I can enjoy the sun Play and have fun For I hope and pray And believe one day Of this malady I suffer Will inspire another To find a cure all together, So we all cancer won't suffer. This sickness may persist you see And have a grip on me But it won't defeat me Just be brave, because happiness is my key.             Timothy K. Robinson Sr                  7,8,&10NOV84
