We received a call today <br />To tell us of your great news <br />But all I could do was think <br />Of how I saw your life to be <br /> <br />You sounded so happy <br />But I could not be <br />Even though it’s a blessing <br />And you wanted me to be <br /> <br />I could not bring myself <br />To say I was happy for you <br />You are so young <br />I could not believe <br />What has been done <br /> <br />I know I will be happy <br />Once you return home <br />Knowing that you are safe <br />Because children are such a blessing <br /> <br />No matter what has happen <br />I could never turn you away <br />Because I will always love you <br />For this I have always told you <br /> <br />So I wait for your safe return <br />To our precious and loving home <br />So we once again can cherish you <br />As we once did before <br /> <br />We welcome this new addition <br />To our family with open arms <br />What blessing this child will make <br />We will love this child the same<br /><br />Scott Austin<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/new-addition/
