Dear Daughter,
When you are born
I will hold you in my arms
With the softness of a butterfly
As delicate as psyche, my soul
I will name you Alessandra-Amara-Amariya-Akasha
Because you are my world
And you are beautiful
I will teach you
Many things
Kindness, compassion, charity, humility, generosity
I will show you how to own
Passion and anger
So you will be strong
You will never hold your tongue
For want of words
For I will teach you
Art and expression
Through the spoken word of
Lips, a pen, and a piano
And the world will hear you
For I will lift you up
And teach you to
Shout.
Dear Son,
When you are born
I will hold you closer
So the world will not pry you away
From my intentions
I will take your hands
And show you
Revolution
I will teach you how to initiate change
Through your will and example
I will empower you with the blessings of
Gentleness, love, understanding, and education
I will enrich your mind
With history, critical thinking, and respect
I will challenge your facts with myths
And the myths you will learn with truth
And baptize you in magic and dreams
I will name you
Alexander-James-Anwar-Kaleb-Akasha
For you are strong
And you are my everything
And I will give you the advantage of
Truth of equality
For I will lift you up
So that you may see the world
And I will teach you to
Observe.
Dear Adopted Son or Daughter,
One day you will be born
And for some reason,
You will be left behind.
I will not know you yet
And because I do not know you
I will not come to get you.
You may get lonely
And some days you will cry
And even though I do not know you yet
I know that I loved you
Even then.
There may be times when you feel unloved
And I will want to hold you and
Show you how much
I love you
Even though, chances are
You do not yet exist,
Know that I loved you
Before you were even a thought
So that you never doubt
That I will love you forever.
There will be times when you will feel unwanted
But you have never been unwanted
For I have been waiting for you.
There will be times when you will feel ordinary
But you are not ordinary
You are special, and you harbor
A touch of destiny
Because I have picked you out
Over anyone else
Many years ago
You are my child and have always been
Even if we dont know it yet.
One day I will find you
And I will see you and fall in love
I will take you home
And we will never be separated again
Like we are now
I dont know how long it will take for me to find you
But I know that I will.
And regardless of the age you will be
When I take you home
I will hold you
I will hug you
I will kiss you
I will love you
I will help you heal any scars, bumps or bruises
You acquire on your heart
I will help you mend
And tears ripped into your soul
And I will help you affirm
How attractive
The body God gave you is
Because your body is a temple for your soul
And I know that you are beautiful
I am your mother
And I have always loved you
And I always will
I think of you every day
And I will continue to dwell on you
Until you come home.
Be Patient
For I am coming for you.
Love,
Mom
