Honey In My Heart
By: Annette Thomas
I have never once feltUnloved by either of you.You took me into yourLives at a time whenYour daughter hadJust came out.
At an emotional timeWhen you yourselvesWere processingYour own feelingsAround that news.But what did you do?
You opened, not onlyYour home to me,But your lives.You could haveDone as many othersHave and rejected me.
But No. You pouredHoney in my heart – That same sweet and Unconditional love That you gave yourOwn daughter.
Then 4 short monthsLater, when I came toYou and asked forYour blessing as IWanted to ask ElaineTo marry me…
What did you do?Did you tell me no,Despite any of aNumber of emotionsOr reservations youMight have had?
No. You once againJust opened your Arms and heart,Pouring in moreSweet unconditionalLove into my life.
So, as I stand hereToday and make myVow to Elaine, I alsoWant to say thank You for pouring allThat honey in my heart.
