The day they took you away
from the only mother and father you knew
I wept deep down inside my soul for you
May my tears help make you whole again
For I'm a mother and cannot comprehend
Why your life with your adoptive parents has to come to an end
And why a man you don't even know, took you away
From the only home you've ever known to this day
Baby Richard please find comfort in knowing God will have the last say
When you join him and the angels on that glorious day.
(Written in 1995, after viewing a Documentary on Baby Richard, then, age 4)
