Proud of Me
most of life travelled alone
childhood memories
filled with much gloom
some things cherished and good
but not too much room to bloom

marriage and children, wiped their tears
kept them safe, guided through fears
now grown and gone
with babes of their own
now far away from home.

growth gained on my own, yet wandering again
along a different path
fulfilment in numbers
is now of choices
i'm blessed, i'm doing the math

adopted i am at this late date
beautiful folks ~ love birds to boot
said your "Proud of Me"
made my tears flow
never heard those words before

thank you Ma and Pa ~ your words i will cherish
keep them close to my heart
i will glow inside
thank you for being who you are
and for being at my side...
