Whispers of home

Whispers of Home

In shadows cast by winter's dawn,

A child was lost, then softly drawn.

The city held you close, at five months old,

Along a path not yet told.

Whispers of home, through time and space,

A voice in Ojibwe, with an unknown face.

Though worlds apart, hearts did mend,

Love found you twice, around each bend.

They said she was abandoned there,

By Antoinette who didn't care.

Then came the mom I never knew.

Fostered hands with love so true.

Whispers of home, through time and space,

A voice in Ojibwe, a gentle grace.

Though worlds apart, hearts did mend,

Love found you twice, around each bend.

In hidden truths of Sixties past,

Where identity was lost so fast,

You carry stories deep inside,

Native roots that never died.

A mother's first words, soft and clear,

Forgive me, child, for I was not near.

In silence spoken, hearts unite,

In love’s pure language, dark turns light.

Whispers of home, through time and space,

A voice in Ojibwe, a gentle grace.

Though worlds apart, hearts did mend,

Love found you twice, around each bend.

So hold this song within your soul,

A bridge that makes your spirit whole.

In this land of trials and tears,

Hope endures across the years.

Whispers of home, through time and space,

A voice in Ojibwe, with an unknown face.

Though worlds apart, hearts did mend,

Love found you twice, around each bend.

Whispers of home, through time and space,

A voice in Ojibwe, with an unknown face.

Though worlds apart, hearts did mend,

Love found you twice, around each bend.

Love found you twice, around each bend.
