A poem...For adoptive parents and birthmothers

Shaped to make yours one
One became your guilding star
The other became your sun.

The first gave you life
And the other taught you to live in it
The first gave you a need for live
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 she could do
The other prayed for a child
And God led her straight to you.

And now you ask the age old
Question through the years
Heredity or Enviroment?

Which are you the product of?
Niether-my darling-neither
Just two differnt knds of love.
