I was inspired to write this poem after hearing my brother, James, and his wife, Rachael were seeking adoption from China. Infinite wisdom sometimes sets people on paths they may not have taken. In my heart, I believe special people are chosen by God to love a special child somewhere; adoption is the means to bring this love to fruition. This poem is dedicated to James, Rachael, and everyone else who adopts children; extending a lifetime of love to beautiful children all over the world.
Peace & Love, Anthony

The Miracle of Adoption

From somewhere across the sea
I wait for you to come to me
Although we have never met
Our destinies have forever been set
For into your loving arms I was born to be
From the beginning of time; for all of eternity
Infinite wisdom has chosen two
For me to spend my life with you
To love me as no other on earth
Is the reason I was given birth
For you belong to me as I belonged to you
All that matters is we are now one
Whether I am a daughter or a son
Love is all that matters to me
Love is all that matters to you
I am a child across the sea
Waiting for you to come to me
To take me to our home at last
We will leave the pain of the past
I am your child across the sea
Waiting for mommy and daddy
A miracle child filled with love
Given to you from heaven above
