Premium Member That Day When Adoption Changed Me

There was a day my life changed
when I was adopted at 6 weeks of age
what if that hadn't happened? left myself!
where I'd be today? maybe on my last page

But in God's providence never left alone
placing me in a family where I receive care
throughout life felt God's touch many a time
no matter how hard, never said it's not fair

After birth, move into kid's home
left to wonder about life's future
but no memory of my infant thoughts
or days ahead, I may have to endure

Six long weeks it probably felt
till adopted parents came my way
then papers signed so all's legal
moving out to country was I to stay

My dad worked on a farm nearby
while mother kept the house in check
so grateful to live out in fresh air
for pre-school days were my top deck

(Just thinking about my early pre-school days getting adopted and events around these early events in my life. )

At 16

Don't talk to her she's in a slump
Have you seen her belly bump?
Its beyond belief that she's so young
What kind of family is she from

Doesn't she have a mom and dad
Where were they while she was bad
She'll never finish her education
That poor girl she needs salvation

What about the father does she know his name
She was probably promiscuous oh the shame
You've studied together well not anymore
I won't have you friends she is a whore

Ma'am  you're wrong and need correction
Those other girls just use protection
And some get caught.. Go to the clinic
You're uniformed don't be a critic

I was the girl who caused that scene
Yes I was pregnant at sixteen
I had much love from Dad and Mother
A family as good as any other

I was with one boy
Not several more
We were in love
I was no whore

My parents said you have an option
You can give him up for adoption
If you keep him you'll stay at home
You're too young to live alone

Yes I was blessed with that curse
I went to college became a nurse
Raised my son he's now thirty five
My parents love taught us to thrive

Not everything is as it may seem
When a girl gets pregnant at sixteen...

The Adoption of Unreasonable Tykes

This waif-world is adopted.
It was sewn together with patches
torn from consequences.
Old Mother Reality
took it in
out of the cold nowhere.

She feeds it now, but only
the food that it is ready to eat
mostly it's puppy food
and an all-purpose applesauce.

Like any infants,
the earth as we understand it,
wails and throws up,
plays with toys that are dangerous,
ends up
with chocolate cake all over its face.

Old Mother Reality
wipes its confused  mug
(and sometimes its ****),
teaches it one small
acceptable wishy-washy truth
at a time,
and hopes the world grows up
before she lets it go
play in the street alone.

Premium Member Adoption - G and G Contest

For many many years her dream was denied
Every month she prayed, every month she cried

Hospital investigations she painstakingly endured
Sadly she was infertile and this couldn’t be cured

She spoke to her husband about adoption
It gave them hope – it was a possible option

Application forms completed, then test after test
Would they be accepted – they hoped for the best

With guts and determination they continued their dream
Would their chance of parenthood ever be seen?

Then they got a phone call, a baby had been found
Abandoned by its mother and left on waste ground

When she finally held the baby for the first time
The smile on her face was simply divine

No longer childless, with her adoption they did gain
Finally parents with a daughter named Charmaine

Premium Member Adopting Healthy Adaptations

In a nutritional communication sense
we are all adopting muses
within this open Universe
with health v pathology EarthTribe intelligence,
with curious and courageous Natural/Spiritual Ego
ZeroZone Centers.

CAdoption adds natural integrity
to spiritual dignity
of WinWin cooperative LeftYang-RightYin intent
longing to abide peacefully in green sanctuary communions
of co-responsive love,
transparently deductive persons
with vulnerably inductive health,
with politically transportive freedom to universally empower love
to economically transubstantiate freedom from patriarchal dominance
of LeftBrain disintegrating RightWing aggression,

CoAdaptive adoptions add divine integrity to humane dignity's potential
ego/eco-logical re-creolizations 
of interdependent nutritional DNA strings
and humanely cooperative enculturing nurture circles,
health waves and nutritionally robust frames,
resonant qualities 
and resilient quantities of green carbon-balancing adoptions,
re-adaptions for all EarthTribe's mutually compassionate re-solutions.

Here with bilateral enthymeming communicators
transporters
WinWin health-sanctuary inviters
conjoining 
sojourner sanctuaries past to Now
with co-adoption not not yet Here 
polypathic co-operative adaptions,
Left with Right

I'Ll Not Marry Again

I made up my mind.
I'll not go there again.
The marriage institution 
Too expensive to cater for.

I'll not marry again.
Once beaten twice shy.
They say.  
I have believed what papa told me.

I was not too young for it.
I was not poor for it.
But never met her satisfaction.
I'll not marry again.

Were it not for my friends.
I could have gone nutters.
All my rights were her wrongs.
I loved her but....

Not an element of love left in my heart.
I won't love again.
A better leaf I thought I was turning.
But I was wrong.
I won't marry again.

Mama expect no grandchildren.
An adoption can do it right.
Let me follow my heart.
I won't marry again.

Fathers Day Coming Up

Therefore, “Come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.” And, “I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”
2 Corinthians 6:17?-?18 NIV


In, dedication to the heavenly Father
Which, through His son provided
One a way to receive His promised spirit
That those who receive come in unity
Myself, God revealed I was going against His will
Falling  victim of listening to word of mouth 
Allowing the world to teach me about God
Blinded by the ways of man 
In which blood related families
Are becoming more scarce in unity
Many, fathers playing the role 
Of mating and abandoning
Not judging any but bringing awareness
That hopefully one might seek truth
It's not who we once were 
For all need new birth unto the living 
Not people to determine your souls fate
May , God bring to life the worst dad in worlds view
To show His majestic power within
To show these kids a new love
That is greater in you than the world 
For mankind is the only separation from
Being able to walk out your door 
To see all with love and family 
Only, Christ spirit can separate
And bury the old self to begin
A fresh new start of conforming 
Ones mind and heart unto why
He came and gave His life that we might live
To bring glory unto His father
Bringing forth, true adoption into His sonship.
That, why in this world we might be pulled
Out of it into a new family in unity
Praising the God of the living 
Praying for all dads on this fathers day coming up
For, myself can not be the dad my sons need
Without submitting unto God's will 
To seek to show the love 
God has placed within 







to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.
Galatians 4:5 NIV


For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”
Matthew 12:50 NIV


If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
Luke 11:13 NIV

Who mentors to me by Your guiding light
Thank for teaching me to work through Your ministerial might
By Your instruction, ordering me --- Your chosen to obey You with delight
So I can wholeheartedly finish my course toward rewarding celestial flight.

Adoption

Just one year ago today we found you
abandoned, neglected and left for dead
With one stringy vine drooped over the pot
I would have discarded you but instead

My wife felt something stirring inside her
that said you were struggling so hard to live
She moved you to a warm spot in the house
and gave you all the love she had to give

At first your leaves died and fell to the floor
I thought that perhaps you had given up
But she nurtured and talked and sang to you
she let you drink deep from her loving cup

By a miracle it happened one day
a tiny leaf showed itself to the world
With every day that passed you got stronger
til you let your true potential unfurl

Today we might see some scars of your past
they don’t diminish the beauty that’s true
But create the you that stands proud and strong
all because she never gave up on you

From just one person giving all her love
now this life will be able to survive
All it takes is some love and compassion
for something to become healthy and thrive

My Adoption

"MY ADOPTION"
       "1979"

ON THE DAY I WAS ADOPTED, I WAS PLACED UNDER PAM & BOB'S WINGS..
I WAS BORN INTO THEIR HEARTS, IN A VERY SPECIAL WAY.. 
THEY OFTEN TOLD ME HOW MUCH THEY PRAYED & DREAMED OF TAKING THEIR LITTLE RED HEAD BABY GIRL HOME.. 
THE DAYS & NIGHTS WERE LONG, AS THEY WAITED
4 THE FINAL SAY THAT I WAS LEGALLY THEIR DAUGHTER.
MY MOM OFTEN WOULD TELL ME THAT MY BRIGHT ORANGE HAIR STOOD OUT WHEN THEY
WOULD VISIT ME..
WHEN THEY FINALLY SIGNED THE LAST PIECE OF PAPER, THEY HAD TEARS OF JOY AS THEY HELD ME IN THEIR ARMS AS THEIR NEW BABY GIRL.
THEY SAID I WAS THEIR PERFECT LIL ANGEL
THEY HAVE ALWAYS WAITED 4..
AND THEY HELD ME TIGHT &
MY NAME CHANGED TO
MELISSA J. DEMONT..
