Family

Six relatives I could see, Snug in the word family, Carrying, a strong message, Each other they do, happily encourage Solitary, yet very powerful are they, Always together, never did betray, Bound by cords ever so tight, Rock solid team they made, quite Can you take a guess? Are you able to assess? Who are those six relatives? Thick, the strongest adhesives. Allow me, to you explain, Before you tax your brain, Biggest support system, they make, Rock solid not easy to shake. F stands for fun, A stands for appreciation, M stands for memories, I stands for I, L stands for love, Y stands for you Now I'm sure you can see, The depth of this word to its highest degree, Each letter adding its own value, Stuck together,never do they argue. Learn from them, musn't we, To always cherish our family, When every back is turned away, Our family is here to stay. Contest Six Relatives Poetry Contest Sponsor Caren Krutsinger Date 11/20/2020
