Family Portrait

On a hill sits a mansion. Resting on the wall within this mansion is a family portrait of a wealthy family of four. Two parents, two children. A mother with hair raven black in a wonderful expensive blue dress, a father in an expensive classy black suit with hair sunny blonde. One son of year twelve With hair like mother, blue eyes of the father and wearing a costly navy blue suit. The last and youngest son with hair like his father and almond brown eyes like the mother. He’s wearing a costly black suit and like everyone else smiles with perfect bright white teeth. A perfect portrait for a seemingly perfect rich family. But a family portrait is just a family portrait. Only showing what the camera takes Not what really goes on within this place.
