Patty

Patty  what a beautiful name
we met by the garbage can
me on a walk, her carrot cake slaine
good intension our laughter rang
on thought gone here and there
I walked away with a poem in my heart
She the beholder of the jewel in the artists game

Thanks Patty                                                                 Caithleen Carter Steeves

Adopted

"Your adopted" said my Aunt
Never thinking her words would haunt
I was five and very much my curiosity alive
"What's adopted mommy?" my little voice did ask
"That's when daddy and me walked into a big room
and all the other babies past
"We chose you from all the rest"
That remark gave me a very large chest!!!
So right away I was quick to tell the others how special I had become
My cousin hurried home wanting to be adopted too from her mom.
So today no matter where I go there is a special place for me
my mother told me ,Im a child of God tis so tis so tis free.                                                                   Caithleen Carter Steeves
