forever mine: an adoption poem.

Forever Mine
"Do I look like her?" he questioned,
as he climbed up next to me.
​"Yes you do, my sweet boy,
​It's that dimple in your cheek!
The smile that you flash,
​Your cocoa perfect skin,
​Your twinkling bright brown eyes,
​That's what you can see her in. "

"I can't remember her," he sighed.
​As he scooted in even closer,
​"She'll always be a part of you,"
​and you, a part of her.
​We can talk about your past and
any questions that you have.
​I'll be here when you're scared,
​and I'll hold you when you're sad.
​
​"Will you be forever mine, too?" he asked.
as he nestled in to me,.
"Oh forever, and a day or more,
I'll love you for eternity.
​You'll always be my brown eyed boy,
​The one for whom I prayed,
​And I'll always be your Momma,
​Forever and a day."

​This is definitely a different type of writing than I typically post, but I felt like I should share this, and I pray it encourages someone! Have you ever written something for your child? What poem have you read that's spoken to you?
