-- The Real Miracle -–
John Herlihy
Can we call any miracle ordinary,
As the unexpected enters our life?
A moment seems extraordinary,
As it lifts us from our daily strife.
What is, then, a miracle anyway,
An event to go against natural law.
To touch the heart in a unique way,
To see a thing that no one ever saw.
A miracle lives in the act of a smile,
Ordinary, with power to fill a heart.
Forgiveness offers a unique style,
Its rare power may change a life.
A moment to seem extraordinary,
A real miracle there in the ordinary.
