ADOPTION UNDERWAY
A child is born!
for all creation to see adorn,
but special emphasis now given
no longer can I be torn
from this way and that way
leaving me so forlorn.
What made no sense,
as regards this poem,
today what was shown to me
is so immense.
As Paul spoke words to his brothers
the Galations,
I too have the knowledge,
that in the course of time, a child conceived
for the purpose of a woman to receive,
would release by purchase
what we all once lost due to Eve,
but then too, we in turn,
might receive the adoption as sons,
for in Christ's death, we are made alive,
when the full limit of the time did arrive for a "hope" I now over 2 years have inside.
