I'm looking for a poem by Fleur Conkling Heylinger on adoption.  All I've been able 
to find is the last stanza and I know there is more.  Here is the last stanza of 
the poem:

"Not flesh of my flesh, Nor bone of my bone,
But still miraculously my own.
Never forget for a single minute,
You didn't grow under my heart, but in it."

I have found that it is published in a book entitled "Perspectives on a grafted 
tree: Thoughts for those touched by adoption" compliled by Patricia Irwin Johnston. 
 Does anyone have this poem or have this book?  Thanks for your help.
