A NEW FAMILY'S EMBRACE

In darkness, he wandered, lost and alone,

A soul forsaken, with heart turned to stone,

Both parents gone, his world shattered wide,

A future uncertain, his path unclear inside.

But then came strangers, with hearts full of gold,

A family found, that his story would mold,

They took him in, with open arms and love,

Gave him hope, sent from above.

Their kindness and care, a balm to his soul,

Helped heal the wounds, made him whole,

Their laughter and joy, a melody so sweet,

Gave him a new sense, of life to greet.

With every step, he found his footing strong,

A sense of belonging, where he didn't belong,

Their support and guidance, a beacon in night,

Led him to brighter days, and a future in sight.
