IF I Never Met You
 
If I never met you
I would never have seen beauty
If I never met you
I would never have found love,
If I never met you
I would still see the pains of an adoptee,
The birds would not sing in my garden
The garden would have no hope.
 
I would not see
I was here for a reason
I would only see sadess,
there would be no stars,
The sun would never shine for me
or tell me where you are
 
If I never met you
I would never find hope,
God would not smile
because I lacked a heart,
If I never met you
I could not see I played a part.
 
In heaven I was made
Now I can see angels in my dreams,
I feel your love,
is all a part of me
 
When I look at you,
there is beauty in the clouds to see
I realized now, without you in my life
I would never see I have goodness in me
 
My God thank you for giving me a soul
I now know where to go,
My God you are there
You gave me whispers in my heart
When I was in despair

What a wonderful God we have....
He is the father of our
Lord Jesus Christ, the source of every mercy,
and the one who so wonderfully comforts and strenghtens us
2 Corinthians 1:3.4

THE PART OF ME I MISS
 
I asked God in heaven
To give me a sister to love,
He gave me someone special
She is a blessing from above,
She is the part of me I miss
I thank God she exists,
I love her more than words can say
Before I die
I hope to meet her someday
 
God in His kindness gave us to each other
The love and caring of the same mother,
When I was grown and falling apart
God whispered to me
Where I can find my heart,
The part of me I was without
Is here within me,
There is no doubt

Where Would I Be Without You
My Loving Friend
 
 
Where would I be without you, my loving friend
Jesus, sent a bouquet of flowers, 
An angel given with all his heart
You and I were meant to be
Loving friends from the start
 
Where would I be without you
If Jesus did not hear my call
I was locked in a maze
For I was all alone
I needed someone
Who could find my all
 
Where would I be without you
If Jesus did not see my tears
I guess I would have wandered
Year after painful year
 
Where would I be, my loving friend
If Jesus did not hear my prayer
I would never have found myself
The hurt I felt would not have disappeared
 
So I want you to know
How very dear you are
I can now help others
Find their shooting star
Where would I be without you
My loving friend, I am where you are.

Written for my spirit sister Heartwhispers, who looked past my bad grammar and spelling, to discover I had a gift God gave me. With her love and kindness, made me not only the poet I am today, but brought me back to God, so I am able to see His beautiful art and with it His great love for me and all who touch the flowers, trees and earth. Listen to the birds sing and butterfly land somewhere over the rainbow. What ever God does is done well.

I Am The One
 
I am the one who sings you to sleep
In my heart
I will always have peace,
I am the one who dries your tears
In my arms
I hold you without fear.
 
I am the one who helps you learn
In my eyes
You do nothing wrong,
You are good, kind and loving to me,
When the time comes
I will set you free.
 
I am the one who gave you your heart
I did not give you birth
Yet, I played a part,
I am the one you call mom
I helped you feel
That you belonged.
 
You may not be my blood
But you are my very soul,
I am the one
Who kisses you each night
Then say a prayer
You will be alright

BABY OF MINE-A POEM OF ADOPTION
 
There is not much time,
To hold you close
I will remember you my baby,
I love the most.
 
You have my hair and eyes
I hope you can realize,
Baby of mine
I made you with love
I must give you your wings
So you can fly through the sky
Into the arms of another mother
One who will keep you safe from harm
Please do not cry.
 
As I let you go
Baby of mine
I need you so
In your heart you will stay
You will never be far away

Some gifts are held in your heart long after your arms can no longer feel them.

HOW COULD I EVER FORGET YOU
 
How could I ever forget you
The stars still shine for me
How could I ever forget you
You helped me be the woman I was meant to be
How could I ever stop loving you
When you always stood by my side
The oceans go on forever
My tears are also that wide
 
How can I ever forget you
With all that we have been through
You may not be my real mother
Still I give all my love to you
How can I ever forget your smile
When the sun still shines
I could look the world over
Yet never anyone like you could I find
 
How could I ever forget you
When in my heart you lay
How could I ever forget you
You carry my soul away
I know I do not have the color of your hair
I do not have the brown of your eye's
Yet my feelings for you do not chance
They could not if they tried
 
I want you to know it does not matter
If I do not have your blood
You love me and took care of me
Now you are with the angels above
Your spirit is now of a dove

                                       A Young Mother
 
 
 
A new day is coming, I can see the sun
I have tears in my eyes,
I have been searching so long
For the child I lost when she was born
What does she look like, can I see her in me
I wonder if she is loved and lives happily
 
When I look out my window
Watch the beauty of life going by
Why did it happen, I do not know why
 
They would not let me hold her when she was born
I was not able to kiss her dear cheek
They left me alone with my grief
 
I searched for my child who was lose to me
I pray to You Dear God, up in Heaven you stand
Help a young mother, please answer my pray
 
Our Lord Jesus loves little children
Please hold out your hand
I am so loving and kind
I love my daughter,
I give my heart and my soul
To see her once more, before I get old

HOW DO I SEE
 
 
How do I see the future
when I cannot find my past,
How do I build foundations
That I know are going to last.
 
With bits and pieces missing
and secrets kept from me,
How do I stop the questions
and find serenity.
 
My mind is always traveling
down roads that I create,
Where quests are finally finished
and much sought answers wait.
 
Scenario's repeat themselves
With solutions changed each time,
I roll the imaginary film
and ending I could not find.
 
My head is always in the clouds
my feet not near the ground,
Can you hear my constant secret prayer,
the song that has no sound.
 
My heart will always be tied
to another time and place,
Until I find the passage
to that secluded hidden place.
 
Where it all started long ago
or once upon a time,
Each day until I find the path
I'm searching for those hidden signs.
 
The one's that will point out the way
the direction I should go,
To stop this life long puzzle
and the past I want to know.

Welcome!

AN ADOPTEE'S PRAYER
 
 
Dear Lord in Heaven, help me today
I feel very lost in so many ways
My birth mother had to give me to another
Please pray with me
For I never knew who I was
My adopted parents could not accept 
I was a little slow. I did not bring them happiness
 
Dear Lord in Heaven, say a prayer for me
To find who I am so I do not grieve
Where did I come from?
What are my roots?
Why was I a puzzle, why was I last
To find out my unknown past
 
I knew not what my name was at my birth
I had to find out as I searched and searched
Dear Lord, You gave me a reason to be
In writing my beautiful poetry
 
Forgive me if sometimes I cry
I found who I am so I will let the past die
You have given me a gift, to share with people like me
I am in your heart, forever free.
