The Gift of Life
I didn’t give you the gift of life,
But in my heart I know.
The love I feel is deep and real,
As if it had been so.For us to have each other
Is like a dream come true!
No, I didn’t give you
The gift of life,
Life gave me the gift of you.— Unknown
This is probably one of the most well-known poems about adoption. It is simplistic,yet, speaks great truth in just a few words. Have a wonderful day!

My brother is adopted. I felt this one to the quick of my heart and tears sprang from my eyes! It is just like that! Beautiful!!
