Karam Misra Poet Haiku

Familial Ties

genes swapped
stirred by unbounded love
family is born

bound by filial bonds
maternal and paternal
relations emerge

love, caring, support
joy and sorrow shared alike
life's music composed

echoing through ages
increasing genetic pool
Malthus' theory

you, me, and Genghis
bound by familial ties
family tree thrives

culture, colors, race
babble, blather, and blubber
siblings world-over

Brian Davey May 6, 2016 at 1:39 AM Great story of where and who your family is and has been throughout time! good luck in the contest Karam Misra May 6, 2016 at 2:24 AM Greater combinations and permutations have occured in the churn of the gene pools over the centuries than we can ever imagine. Couldn't resist adding Genghis in the poem as some studies indicate that around 160 million people could be sharing his genes (2003 study). Thank you, Brian, for the appreciation. ~ kc ~

Andrea Dietrich May 5, 2016 at 7:52 PM this is really sweet and how it shows the way it spreads all over the world. The last one so cute! Karam Misra May 5, 2016 at 9:24 PM Thank you for your appreciation, Andrea. We all have come a long way from Adam and Eve, I guess.
