(01/11/12) <br /> <br />So many children are waiting in the wings <br />For being adopted is their thing. <br />Afraid to make plans for they don’t know <br />What lies ahead - their future is something <br />That they do dread. <br /> <br />Some move from home to home and never <br />Finding where they belong. <br />Many were abandoned and left on the street <br />With just their clothes on their backs and no food to eat. <br /> <br />Some were newborns left at police stations <br />Fire stations, and at church doors <br />Never to see their parents any more. <br /> <br />They have dreams like so many others <br />But they would prefer to have parents <br />And a sister or brother. <br /> <br />A person that they could say that- this is my mom <br />And this is my dad and I’m proud and awfully glad. <br />That I have parents as so many other children do <br />And knowing what it is to be loved like you. <br /> <br />We are all adoptable if given a chance <br />Look in our hearts and you’ll understand. <br />We don’t know why we was abandoned <br />Or what we had done wrong, but with <br />Parents is where we belong. <br /> <br />I’ll wipe away my tears so that you could see <br />The love and pain that’s inside of me. <br />If you can’t have children or have a kind heart <br />Then adoption is where you can start. <br /> <br /> ADOPT<br /><br />louis rams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/adoption-4/
