A Gift From Above
My family has been through more than most anyone could survive.
Suffered through death and loss leaving me the only one left alive.
The stress it was relentless it shook our family to the core.
Until there was really nothing left and I couldn't handle no more.
With a broken bond with everyone except for one special niece.
Who recently came to me with news that filled my heart with peace.
With all of the disarray and things we did endure.
She's now expecting with new life so innocent and pure.
After years of feeling nothing much but sad.
With only far and distant memories of the family I once had.
Soon will come this new baby and with her a new love.
She can only be received and loved as a precious gift from above.
