I enjoyed this poem. I am so glad you located your son. I could feel your love for your son through your words. The poem is descriptive. Well done.

    Thank you so much for your kind review. It just so happens that this afternoon in about an hour or so that sound will be calling me to talk with me for a while. I haven?t talked to him in several months.

This title, the picture, poignant sparse notes, candid poetical verbiage and biographical theme combine to render (IMHO) a personal bittersweet write
with a faith-filled and pious redeeming ending. Thanks for sharing such
an intimate and emotional "life" story in your poem. teafor2

    Thank you for taking the time to review my work and for leaving such a nice comment. Yes this was a better bittersweet thing to write. I actually wrote the poem before I met the sun. It was something it was on my heart about a year later.

Author, your poem is heartwarming and poignant.
You express the loving pain of giving up your son; to me this is the ultimate sacrifice any mother can make.
I'm so glad you found him and your tears turned to joyous ones.
Blessings,
Cindy

This poem, Adoption, is a great acknowledgement of the sacrifice and loss when a child is adopted. Knowing, or finding that he was raised well would be a cool plus for sure.

I am glad you did get to see the son you gave for adoption. I know you are a kind and loving person, and thus I know you must have done what was best for this child. I also like your rhymes. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

My dear lady and good friend you are a heroine beyond my ability to express. The sadness of the adoption but oh the joy of the reunion. The story of this episode in your life swells my eyes with joyous tears.
God bless you,

A very brave write, I received a message of unbound love in your poem, an act of sacrifice that gave love a front sit over selfish desire, God bless you.

    Thank you for the review and for the words. I didn't see it as thing other than doing what I had to do, that would be right in the sight of God. I believe God has richly blessed me for my choice 58 years ago.

Appreciate the author notes, as it seemed to present a great insight to the reader that before the after life, you had an opportunity to see him all grown up...That must of been such a heartwarming meeting to cherish to this day..Thanks so much for sharing your true poem. I liked it very much.

    It was a wonderful day when we met for the first time. When I told him why I had given him up for adoption he thanked me for giving him life. A life that others wanted me to abort...

    You were very wise to not listen to the others, then..He seems to be a gracious son who is very appreciative..I know that made your day to see him, & for him to meet you...Thanks for replying to my review....C.
