Legacy of an Adopted Child
Once there were two women who never knew each other… One you do not remember… the other you call “Mama”… Two different lives shaped to make you one… One became your guiding star… The other became your sun…The first one gave you life… the second one taught you to live it… The first gave you a need for the love and the second was there to give it… One gave you a nationality… the other gave you a name… One gave you talent and the other gave you aim… One gave you emotion and the other calmed your fears… One saw your first sweet smile and the other dried your tears… One sought for you a home that she could not provide while the other prayed for a child and that her hope would not be denied…And now you ask me through your tears, the age old question unanswered through the years…Heredity or environment, which one are you a product of?? Neither my sweet girl, neither…Just two different kinds of love.
