a party

My sister made a party at beach,
For celebrating 40 years of wedding,
They keep everything simple,
Her children and grandsons were there,
Still shy and so little kids,
I was the photographer, I shot a lot,
I met my nephews and their wives,
We drunk homemade beer, good one,
And ate spaghettis bolognaises,
It is always too soon, to quit that kind of people.

'Memories are made of this,' as the popular song goes. I enjoyed this tale of a blissfully happy day, spent with family. Great writing, Yann.

This is so sweet dear Yann and you get the real sense of just how cherished family time is when more memories can be made that bring such joy such as your poem did while reading and enjoying it. I expect you had great fun with the camera. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you :)

Being with family and the close ones is always a pleasure. Celebration of a wedding anniversary, though in a simple manner is a gratifying experience. Wish your sister a Happy Wedding Anniversary.
