Sharing and Caring

Little things touch my heart,
Things give my day a glow,
A kindness acknowledged
Or the call of a cheery hello.

Family gatherings are noisy but fun,
Four generations
Great-grandparents to Great-grandson
It isn't all sweetness and light
We don't always agree
But we never fist fight.

Life isn't dull,
It's complete and exciteful
Although at my age 
I find a lull
Welcome and delightful.

Like all families
We have shared memories galore,
And in the future
There will be many more

Losses and gains
Happiness and joy
But they will forever remain
Our Girls and Boys

Even when I am gone
And no longer there
The collection of memories
Generations will share
