Different People In Your Life

When different people in your life Occasionally connect, It’s wonderful to see what happens As they intersect. For oftentimes, they’ve heard the names Of loved ones you might mention, Though joining separate lifelines Wasn’t really your intention. Still, it can make you smile to see The varied ties that tether Your kith and kin pulled close enough To gather them together.

It is so gorgeously penned! And it makes fathoms of sense also.

Load your family tree onto wikitree.com, as every week they will connect you to people as divers as QEII to Atilla the Hun! You did a very nice job on this one! Aloha!

This one is really very nice, Ilene. I have always loved the phrase "kith and kin", and these days I am so grateful for all the ones whose "lifelines" have occasionally intersected with mine as well as others who were and are dear to me. And that includes all the new ones with whom I have occasionally connected here on PS.
