Family

Family is our refuge
In times of trouble strife
Or loneliness when we are
Alone our family will help.
Though we were eager
To leave them, we end
Up eager to see the
Ones we grew up
With for as long
As we have
Them to
Hold.
I think
Of kitchen
Spices which
When scented
Bring back memories
Of family meals together
And preparations with
A half dozen family
Cooking their own
Dish to share as
Cinnamon vies
With baked
Chicken
As we
Are
A
Family.
