Childless Couples Gift
the childless couple pray every day
that a child will come their way.
they tried everything to conceive
and at night, she sits and bereaves.
they go to doctors and clinics
and do all sorts of tests
they do everything they're told
and give it their best.
they showed people what they
expected them to see.
but! their pain is the harsh reality.
hiding the pain that was embedded so deep
but! it was a pain they could not defeat.
they knew they had a couple of options left
either a surrogate mother, or to adopt.
although they knew that the final
decision would be theirs.
they spoke about it hours on end
spoke with family and their friends.
they decided to take a trip to ' boys town'
and speak with others who had been turned down.
speaking with children who were still
looking to be part of a family
and ' how they would search the adoption history'
they asked: do most people looking to adopt
seem to be put on a spot?
a young boy of about twelve, decided to speak.
he said: most adopting parents seek a young child
because they think that an older one
is not worth their while.
they think that there must be a reason
that the older child was not taken.
but! they don't know how much they're mistaken.
we older children have learned right from wrong
and have gone through heartbreak the same as you.
so! ' what are we supposed to do.'
to hide our heads in the ground
never to be found?
we can love and be loved the same as you
and in your hearts ' you know it's true.'
so if you are coming with that thought in mind
there are hundreds here that you will find.
his tears started rolling down his eyes
as he was walking away.
when he heard the mans voice say
' wait a minute my son, for you are the one.
you are what we've been seeking
and our love you'll be keeping.
just give us a chance to prove you're right
for you are GODS gift- this very night.
