My Life Began In Six Weeks

My life began at six weeks Why indeed should that be? Because up till that point My parents I did not see An adopted child I was As my new parents did say Who were my real mum and dad? I never knew to this day I lived among the flowers and the grass As the countryside was my home Where I enjoyed the fresh air With space to wander and roam But many challenges lay ahead School, job and all of life Many changes come my way Survived it all even the strife Now looking back on my life I see the divine hand Looking after me all the time Holding me up so to stand poetgord@2013
