Adopted




I didn't come out of my mother.
I don't have my father's blue eyes.

No one in my family looks like me.
People are always surprised.

I think we're a happier family
Than if we were all kings and queens.

We're so lucky we all found each other
That's what being adopted means.

by Pamela Espeland and Marilyn Nelson
