Why Would We Care Now?

When each of our three children were born...we celebrated the day...

Back then, we didn’t care...
if they were bi
or straight
or gay.

We only cared they were alive...had all their body parts...
that they were breathing on their own...and came with healthy hearts.

And each time we were blessed...three healthy children came our way

And today, we still don’t care...
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 gentle souls...and kindness in their hearts

The reason is quite simple...and to this we both avow

If we didn’t care when they were born...

Why...would we care now?
