A New Beginning
I was a young mother
17 or younger
She was a blessing
10 fingers...10 toes...
A new beginning
A child with perfection
I never feared rejection
But as years have gone by
I just want to cry
What has gone wrong
It has been so long
Only a phone call away
No response today
Mother and daughter
Left lost and alone
I would so treasure
Those 10 fingers...10 toes...
Another new beginning
Would again make me whole
