Poem of the Week: I Dream of You

Tuesday November 29, 2005
Written by Tom Fisher, "I Dream of You" is this week’s poem of focus. An adoptive parent of one from China, and currently waiting for daughter number two, Tom focuses much of his work on the plight of the birth mom who must choose to abandon her child. Here is my favorite stanza:
    Please forgive me little one
    There was no other choice
    When you close your eyes at night
    Your heartbeat is my voice.
