Family
The following days will be quite a chore.
You will find pieces of heart all over the floor.
Be mindful these days and watch where you step.
We’ll slowly pick them up because they have to be kept.
Our family blood is our binding glue.
It will keep us together and there is nothing we can’t do.
Remember one fact, you are never alone.
New members will arrive in blood, muscle and bone.
You will always be loved, both here and beyond.
Our family is strong and this love is our bond.
In death we might part, but just for a time.
Keep your focus on life and that hill you still climb.
The death of our loved ones will always bring pain.
Please lean on your family, they will help ease the strain.
Life can be short, try not to bicker and fight.
Our family is all that’s important, at the end of each night.
