Blossoms by Janet K. Brennan Lyrics

I gazed down at that shining face
A face that was mine own
While knowing that this precious love
I would not see full grown

A child am I, yet wiser now
My blossom from such root
No vows exchanged, no lesson learned
"Too young to bare pure fruit."

A plan is made and he is gone
In three days from that time
To strangers arms while I a pawn
Now suffer for said crime.

Another child, another time
And circumstances pure
Yet she not well, her soul returned
Now two. . . I can't endure!

Long years have passed and I am not
That neophyte once lost
A boy and girl and shadows cast
So many bridges crossed.
Now as I gaze with love and pride
Into my grandchild's eyes
Two blossoms gone, and one returned
For Lord, your plan is wise!
