One family, six members
One color, one race
I never imagined
We were missing your face
The doctors said, “No more”
But God had a plan
Though your mother is different
You fit right in our hands
For months we knew not
What your name would be
No information about
No image to see
But none could deny
Our immediate bond
Before I first met you
I knew you belonged
The first time I saw
Your most beautiful face
I tucked you into my wallet
Carried you all over the place
Proud to call you my sister
With you there’s no maybe
I’ll cherish you forever
My precious China baby

I love this poem!! Thank you for your heart for your brothers and sisters!!
ReplyDeleteSam - What a beautiful poem and tribute to your sister. I know that your Mom cannot express the deep welling that she felt as she read it, because I can hardly express how it made me feel.
ReplyDeleteI am so blessed to know you and your family.
Blessings,
