Holding On to the Smith Family Legacy

A Poem - My Family

My Family

Of all the beautiful things in the world
What is most lovely to me
Its the mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters
That make up a family

It?’s the uncles, aunts and cousins
(Some live so far away).
It?’s the grandpas and grandmas
Who always brighten the day
It?’s the cute little children
Having fun, running wild.
And the cuddly, little babies
That always brings on a smile.

And every two years I look forward
To a very special time
When I will be reunited
With this family I call mine

It?’s family reunion time.
The time I hold so dear
A time that I look forward to
Every two years.

A time to visit a new city
Or stay home and be the host
And share with my whole family
The sites and scenes I live the most.

There?’s lots of fun to be had,
Lots of sights to see,
But the sight I love most
Is my wonderful family.

There?’s good food to eat,
Lots of memories to share,
And lots and lots of love
?‘Cause the whole family is there.

I can hold my head high.
I have a right to be proud,
"Cause this crowd I?’m partying with
I no ordinary crowd.

They?’re the cream of the crop,
The best there can be.
They?’re the folks I love the most.

They?’re my family.
