My Thought On Life
My Thought On Life
Miracle Man

Life was meant to be a journey of unknown steps,
but for many, death comes before first footsteps.
Unwanted by a mother, some are sentenced to death,
an innocent life claimed before it’s first breath.
Claudia Elezibeth Benzio
Written: by Tom Wright
We never met little Claudia face to face,
But she gave hope to our lives for a time.
A monthly letter or picture she might trace,
Was enough to make our lives quite sublime.
The Orphanage tutored her in English preparing,
For the day we both felt sure would come.
That this little life would our lives soon be sharing,
Only to learn that things would soon turn glum.
For soon, her correspondence suddenly stopped,
A living mother had returned with prior claim.
Thus slaying the plans we had to soon adopt,
I've prayed the loss we felt was Claudia's gain.
