Families and Friends

Our family united can withstand any harm,
With caring, love and special charm.
Backing each other in good times and bad,
Reminicing about all the fun times we've had.

Our friends help us to relax and unwind,
Enjoying the fellowship of heart, soul, and mind.
Playing games like we've done before,
Strengthening our bond within our core.

Our family is more than those of same blood,
It's those willing to stand with you through storms and floods.
So even though that family is where your closest friends are found,
Remember those whose lives you've touched and allowed them to be bound!
