Still Waiting

I'm still waiting.

Day after lonely day I'm still waiting...

Waiting for that special someone to walk in the door and notice me.

Me.

The little kid in the corner.

The one lying in the crib staring at the ceiling.

I know that I may never win any beauty contests....

And I'm not going to be the fastest kid on the block.

I'm probably not going to be very good in school either.

In fact, there is very little about me that would cause anyone to notice.

I'm just the little kid in the corner.

Waiting.  Watching.  Hoping.  Praying.

Longing for someone to walk in that door and notice me.

Wondering if I will ever be carried out of this place.

Wondering if anyone sees the special me that is inside.

I don't have much to offer anyone if they look at me on the outside..

But give me some attention, a lot of love, good food, a warm bed, a few toys, kisses and hugs every night, gentle words and a new name and I guarantee that you will never ever ever be the same.  I may not look like much on the outside but I guarantee that your cup will overflow each and every time you see my face light up with a smile. 

I also guarantee that you will learn a lot from me about God and love.  I have so much to teach you if you would just notice me. 

Please - I'm still waiting.

Won't someone hear my plea?
