The day you were born
and you took your first breath
I bet the skies were blue
And God's arms were outstretched
The day you were born
I bet the flowers were brighter
and the scent of each one was
carried on a breeze that was lighter
The day you were born
I bet the fairies danced
and the angels in heaven rejoiced too
When they took their first glance
The day you were born
Don't you know this was all true
because with every birth
God is there with you
(18 June 2007)
Hope someone was there because on the day I was born think it was just the Dr. making arrangements with his friend another Dr. to adopt me....I always think of the day I was born as the day I was given away.....I like your version of our birth much, much better...love, marci.
