2022 Family Dinner

The family of six sat together for Sunday dinner
Their devices in their laps, so they did not have to speak.
Grandma tried a couple of times, then went back to her word games.
Brother and sister were playing text war.
They looked up and grinned at each other.
A new wave, a new way, the 2022 family.
