Love Beyond All Scope

by Bridget Eu Yoke Lin (Malaysia)

The world in standstill watched, grim, in solemn mood
How are the boys? Trapped in cave, days without food
Please tell us that they are alive
As parents, traumatic, keeping their hopes alive
Soon, these boys are beyond their nationality
As the world embraced them in all humanity

The heroic Divers zoomed in
The professional Seals sealed in
International air poured in
Volunteers, far and wide came in
The Government leadership champion in
Latest technology, equipment deployed in
Prayers from all over the world sank in

A united effort to find the boys alive
A rescue mission to bring them home safe and fine
Careful moves, delicate structures, global effort
A mission impossible that must not fail
As wide media coverage, soberly intense
Families, viewers around the world, concerned and tense

Bravo! The boys emerged, in diving suits, glorious!
One, two, three, twelve and coach, out, victorious!
Physically weak but spirits high and mentally rich
To the Hospital, where loving care gracefully enriched
Where the world has witnessed
Supreme efforts, supreme care, global efforts, global care!

The world has united, compassionate, in solidarity
To tell an inspirational story on true humanity
Lessons on sacrifices, perseverance, zeal, love and hope
That God loves us so much, beyond all scope!
