Love Stretches [Adoption]
by Melissa Martin

Loving her adoptive mother,
Longing for her birth mother.

Symbiotic fantasies
Of a Beaver Cleaver family.

Why did she give me away?
Why didn't she want me?

Searching for her identity,
Sealed away in a locked file.

Feeling like a misfit
Amid her caring foster family.

A young woman grown,
A family of her own.

Yearning for wholeness,
Still hunting for her maker.

A phone call to her flesh,
Daughter and mother reunited.

Smiling through the tears,
A woman thankful for two mothers.

Melissa writes about the God and human connection and condition.
