Notes About The Poem

With Love

Helpless.
           Time had run out.
          Unable to conceive
adoption brought relief, and love
                 to share.

Adoption can be the most wonderful gift in the world, for the adoptive parent and the birth parent. I loved this little gem Paul!

Thank you Jan. Quite a few people that I know in our village have adopted children, mostly from abroad. They integrate quickly in the community. Hugs // paul

Adoption could mean make or break for many children. At least they are given the chance of experiencing family life. Thank you for your lovely feedback, Sandra. // paul
