PRECIOUS GIFT
For many months I
waited to see him.
It was a boy - so I had been told.
Oh, how I longed to
touch him
and look at his little fingers and toes.
Nothing could have prepared me
When I finally
saw his beautiful face.
My
emotions overwhelmed me
As I held him in a
gentle embrace.
I felt the love deep
within my soul.
It was hard to believe he was mine.
He was so perfect
- God's blessing
As memories took me back in time.
I kissed his face time and time again.
No
matter how hard I tried
As I held him - my feelings took
overAnd the
tears pooled in my eyes.
My heart nearly broke
the day I left
As the roads
between us are too far apart.
But, he
will come to know his grandma
As he will feel the love within my
heart.
