My Family

my family tree - nurtured, supportive Banyan roots stay firm beneath Strong branches stretch out, colouring a billion leaves - and those billion lives. United we stand, not by blood… but loyalty. Vasudev Kutumb. 'Vasudev Kutumb', in Sanskrit, means 'The world is our family'. For the contest 'My Family' Sponsor: Marvin Celestial N/A

Nice one. Your penned piece is nearer to my heart. It was a sheer joy to review your poem. Regards. Beauty of a poem means use of rhetorical devices. You too tried your hand in it. Good. Yes, I too had written a poem on my family. It is a bit different. Review Pari Style Poem to encourage me. Please subscribe 2 my YouTube Channel.

A profound and honorary poem about what family means, Sneha. "United we stand, not by blood... but loyalty" ... well said! I like what you have to say here.
