When our first child is born
we celebrate the day
at that moment we don’t care
if they are bi or straight or gay
We only care they are alive…
have all their body parts...
that they are breathing on their own…
and come with healthy hearts.
And each time we are blessed with a child
we celebrate that day
still not caring at that moment
if they are bi
or straight
or gay.
We only care that they are close to us…
that in their lives we play a part
that they all have gentleness in their souls…
and kindness in their hearts
And so parents of the world I ask this question:
As we think back to our initial vow…
If we didn’t care when they were born…
Why should we care now?
