Written after what should have been a huge family affair.
Families love each other,
don’t have to like, but love,
unconditionally, No matter what
Raised to respect all the elders
Bonfire parties and wiener roasts,
Race day and bottle rockets
Harvest time, those darn beans
All the little cousins,
I can’t wait till we are all grown
With families of our own
We will have fun
Carry on tradition
Who needs friends
They stab you in the back
I can always count on family
Families love each other,
don’t have to like, but love,
unconditionally, No matter what
Write? WRONG!!
Even though it was just a few years
It seems so long ago
The family is torn
No one cares, no one respects
No one really LOVES
I was at the farm a few days ago
It was a beautifully simple wedding
With so many missing
Come to think of it there has been,
Something missing for quiet some time now
Why? Is it guilt? Fear?
Is it hate or just jealousy?
I’ll tell you what it is
It is saddening to think about.
