Once to a woman born from a fall
A child was born - she named Jamhal
And soon to follow in the sun
There came another who she named Juan
Identical in every way
But separated on this day
Adopted out and set apart
There was no time for bond of heart
But mother love would win the day
She searched and sought to find a way
She hunted high and hunted low
And did not know which way to go
She married rich - had not forgotten
Her bastard children she'd begotten
She looked high and searched all places
But of both could see no traces
She found Juan - could not find the other
Her husband said it's too much bother
They're identical, the tale's too tall
And if you've seen Juan - you've seen Jamhal

* a little bit of silliness

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown

...it may be a whim of silly...
and yet it is all too true.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.

enjoyed the ending,  cute...

I have two children that do not know who
their fathers are.  But they don't seem to
worry much about it,  because they have my
wife and I...we have taken that place,  with
love and pride...
