she was barren ;
he was orphaned at a -young age-she could never have children of her own : :
he had never had anyone to h u g or h o l d him

or tuck him in
or sing him to sleep,
she was able to p r e t e n d . . .
she would pretend he was hers, and she was his
&& all was right in their fragilelittleworld - -
that - ) he was her t r e a s u r e, her precious-little-one,
( because in the end, God knows that boy needed a mother
and -God knows- that woman needed a child. )
