Family ties

I try so very hard
Just once in a while
To get everyone together
In one suitable place
To cherish the unity

Capturing precious moments
Because I know deep down
The years are going by too fast
And I so badly want
Not just a memory

Some tall and some short
Each unique in their own way
Stories we could share
The challenges we have faced
This is my family ties ...

We have awkward spaces
Even bickering towards each other
Fake smiles and genuine laughs
A stolen kiss or two
Somehow hoping for a great result

Looks like picture perfect
From the oldest to the youngest
Set in our ways
Stubborn to a point
We are first and foremost family

Some dark and some light
Each unique in their own way
Secrets we hold dear
Force to be reckoned with
This is my family ties ...

Thank you Claire for the beautiful memories captured!!!

From the Heart
Char
