"THE GIFT OF FAMILY"
The little child said hello to this world,
Graced this Earth from the
great empyrean heights,
Alone he came on this
journey,
With no one as friendly
company.
Opened he his eyes to
behold,
The figure of a woman kiss
his infant head,
He looked on, wondering who
she was,
Deep within, magic healed
his broken sores.
He cried with a wiry voice
Probably out of bewilderment
But she held him close to
her bosom,
Told him he was a sprouting
leaf that'd blossom.
She nourished him with milk
from her breasts,
As water from a living
spring,
There the connection came to
be,
The truth lay bare before
his eyes so he could clearly see.
He called on to her,
And she answered him with
tender love
That carved a mark in his
soul,
As a horse adores her foal.
She held him by the hands,
Silently he thanked God for
this privilege
Not all infants his age
could see,
The gift of love and family.
