Life Poetry of an Adopted Baby: Poems of Spirit and Transformation

Benita Rainer was adopted as a newborn baby. She became a teacher and is a musician, poet, and writer. Despite having wonderful adoptive parents, the effects of not knowing who she was in terms of her natural and genetic heritage had profound lifelong effects on her. At the age of 23, and at a time when no help was readily available, she found her natural mother and was accepted by this family. She is still seeking knowledge about her natural father.

In this volume, she openly expresses the soul angst and fears of abandonment so common in the psyche of the adopted person and reveals some degree of resolution. She hopes that this book, so illustrative of the long and difficult path of the adopted person, may be of help to others in the adoption triangle of adoptee, natural, and adoptive families.
