Lost and found

I can't imagine how she felt
To give you away.
Relief?
Grief?

I can't imagine how you feel
When you found her name!
Connected?
Rejected?

I can't imagine the anticipation
Waiting for the test.
Scared?
Prepared...

You discovered the connection
Written in As, Ts, Gs, and Cs.
Biology...
Genealogy...

Then traveled great distances
To meet us.
Geographical...
Chronological...

We welcome a relative,
Yet a complete stranger.
Paradox?
Unorthodox?

Yet here we are!
Our children play like best friends...
Finally...
Family!
