Gabriel’s honorary aunt, Austin, has written him a poem and posted it on her blog. How very sweet! I’m happy that he is already so loved.
A poem for Gabriel
| Soon your eyes will squint in the light the adorers’ glares warm upon your new-kissed cheeks. Soon your ears will taste the music: a familiar heartbeat among an unknown chorus, a life-sustaining river. Soon your fingers will grasp this world– joy, wisdom, sorrow, chaos, communion Later, much later, your heart will know the love that will not let you go. |
