Description
Born into the world without a cry
Poor lil babe never knew her mother had died
For nine and one years she lived with a lie
August eleventh was her tenth birthday
All the kids in the neighborhood came to play
Friends and family came with respects to pay
Her uncle drove all the way from Oklahoma
He said you

I guess the only why I can come up with is to leave a beautiful legacy. Excellent work. Vote.

Excellent work. I almost cried along with her uncle. I've known several people who have never known their parents, and it is still hard for them everyday.

As an adoptee, I have ALWAYS viewed my "real" parents as the ones who loved, nutured and raised me -- in my life, this means my adoptive parents are my REAL parents, and even though they are now both deceased, that will not change...

Family is the one you make sometimes. Love doesn't always have to come through bloodlines. Wonderful piece babes.

Your family are those who carried for you, raised you and help you through the hard times. Beautifully written but full of sorrow, excellent posting.

You are writing with so much feeling. I fear I'm unable to describe this with my english in a way that really expresses how brilliant your poetry is.

Being in a melancholy mood this piece made me want to cry... there is so much feeling to this. Excellent job.

Birth is chance, or fate. Love is Family.
