Teamwork
by Jenn M.

*I wrote this poem when I was trying to convince myself that my role in my son's life was just as important as the role of his (adoptive) parents.*

I gave you a mouth –
They’ll help you say what you feel.

I gave you arms –
They’ll teach you to hug.

I gave you legs –
They’ll help you run after your dreams.

I gave you eyes –
They’ll teach you to look deeper.

I gave you ears –
They’ll help you listen to every word.
 

I gave you a heart –
They’ll teach you to love.

I gave you a life -
They'll teach you to live it.
