Family Ties
Some wear conservative,
while some wear liberal,
some for Trump,
while some for Clinton,
some are Catholic or Protestant
while some are Jewish,
some are carefree,
while others are prudent,
some just getting hitched,
while some growing leery,
some newly born,
still others are old and weary,
some have good paying jobs,
while others are living paycheck
to paycheck and struggling,
some have excellent health,
while others are dealing with
different health issues under their
shirts and belts,
some can hold a conversation
with confidence and ease,
while others tend to drink
to feel more of a sweet release,
some meeting for
weddings and funerals
by flying out,
some still go by driving the
long arduous route,
when we have family reunions
we don't always see
eye to eye,
but still and all with love foremost
we'll always have family ties.
