The Acceptance What use in experience, If not breathed From the sinews of our being? In forgiving, the butterfly Can spread her beautiful wings And, with her delicate touch, Offer and receive in humility. For, when there is nothing more To search, other than to accept Herself serene, to know her best, She takes her flight to find Her rest in harmless eyes. Ruby Esprits heartfelt poetry about her experiences of being adopted give an emotional insight into her life. She candidly relates her reunion with her siblings and her birth mother and father, drawing her reader into this tale of adversity. Her details of her time living in an orphanage and her struggle with the decision to find her birth parents highlight the difficulties that she has experienced. Yet, ultimately, these poems are uplifting and are truly a story of self-discovery.
