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 yours one...
One became your guiding star, one became your sun...

The first gave you life,and the second taught you to live it..
The first gave you need for love, and the second one was there to give it..

One gave you nationality, the other gave you a name...
One gave you talent, the other gave you aim...

One gave you emotions, the other calmed your fears....
One saw your first sweet smile, the other one 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 questions through the years...

Heredity or enviroment.... Which are you a product of?

Neither, my darling.....neither, just two different kinds of love....
