My Family

My family

Family here family there 
Family scattered every where

I may not see you face to face
Nor get to feel your warm embrace 

But I love and miss you still
And with your love my heart is filled

I think of you all every day
So that in my mind you all will stay

I pray for you all before i sleep
And leave you in the Fathers keep

Remember you are spirit in a body shell
So do not worry if you are not well

For if in Christ you live your life
We will live together when we are through with this strife

You are my family where ever you are
And i will love you forever near and far

Nice rhymes and flow, the sentiment is also dear.

Thank you. I rarely get to physically see any of my family these days but still my love for them grows and does not die.
