Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Choose Your Family Wisely

Do we choose our families
Or do they choose us?
It matters not.
At a certain age we can create ourselves a new family.

Fresh start.
Clean slate.
New rules.
Choose wisely. Find people who like you.
Better yet choose people who love you.

It does not matter how long it takes
It does not matter how many false starts and stops along your path
Keep looking. Look where you want to be.
Look while doing what you love to do.

Relax
Enjoy
Play
Your playground is where
You will find your new love and your new family.

Choose wisely

M. L. Kiser October 23, 2018 at 5:14 PM Excellent advice; too many people fall victim to love's blindness and end up miserable until they get a divorce. Well penned. Caren Krutsinger October 23, 2018 at 7:42 PM Yes, we have oodles and gobs of divorce in families now. So sad for children when they do not see their grandparents ever again.

Rhona Mcferran October 23, 2018 at 9:50 AM I had to FAV this before I even made it to the comment box! This so perfectly expresses how I feel about family... LOVE it!!
