I Love My Family

I love my family
and they love me.
We are all connected 
like the branches
On our old apple tree
 With lots of cousin's 
One two three.
And we all live
 in ohio in the good
old USA.  
That right ,
The land of the free.
My daddy farmed 
the land out back.
With rows of corn
 Plus green beans
 And  potatoes 
 that fill a few sacks.
He used his old 
gray tractor
while wearing his
old straw hat.
 I wish his grand 
 baby could of
seen all of that.
 In the evening my
aunts and uncle's 
 Would stop by.
  Mama would serve
  them with 
  a cup of hot coffee 
  and a piece of her
  home made 
  blackberry pie.
  I love my family
  and they love me.
  We are all connected 
   like the branches
  off our old 
  apple tree.
