Briefly
breeching love's
path
Crossed mother and
child
Dispelling
fragile fears of
all brave
Babies
Fostering their
Growth
In your nurturing
Care
Engulfing
Temporary child
within Faith's
Embrace
@November 4, 1996
This poem is dedicated
to my mother,
who has had over
50 foster children in her home.
With each child
a piece of her was taken
and a piece of them left.
