Precious Gift In my arms I held The most precious thing Known to mankind With ten little fingers And ten little toes Hair of brown and eyes of blue So little and fragile I didn't want to let go As she looked up at me With such uncertain eyes She gave out a little cry There I knew I had to let go I placed her in the arms Of one that could not bear her own But could give her all I could not This person I know will take great Care of her Her life will be happy and secure This I trust with faith and love She will grow to understand It was out of love for her That with a kiss on the cheek I placed her in the arms Of the one she will call mother by Sharon Roberts
