Legacy of an Adopted Child

Once there were two women
Who never knew each other
One you do not remember
The other you call Mother
Two different lives shaped to make you one
One became your guiding star
The other became your sun
The first one gave you life
And the second taught you to live in it
The first one gave you a need to love
And the second was there to give it
One gave you a nationality
The other gave you a name
One gave you the seed of talent
The other gave you an aim
One gave you emotions
The other calmed your fears
One saw your first sweet smile
The other dried your tears
One gave you up - it was all that she could do
The other prayed for a child
And God led her straight to you
And now you ask me through your tears
The age-old question through the years
Heredity or environment - which are you the product of?
Neither, my darling, neither
Just two different kinds of love.
*from National Adoptalk USA, October 1980*
