To the Birth Mother

My mother wrote this poem in the late 70's as a thank you to a birth mother she would never meet.

To the Birth Mother

You brought her to term
This jewel, this prize.
You gave to her life
This light of our lives.
How can we thank you?
We love her so much.
You didn't cast her out
Just as tissues and such.

God bless you, dear Mother,
With joy in the knowing
This grandchild of ours
Is happy and growing.
