Some Respect

Our lives we may divide But for once sit back and swallow your pride We are family that's always true No matter what we say or do The years have pushed us miles apart Even changed the feeling from the heart For one of our own the end grows near And from you they would like to hear The separation no doubt will always be there Still showing some respect only seems fair One thing I know is very true That is she never once judged you Fault in her you all some how found And now you just kick her while she's down For you all I can feel is shame Your excuses are all nothing but lame How can you say you really care When in her time of need your not there So won't you please push the past aside Dig deep and swallow your pride Give this all a little thought Time is something you really haven't got Peace with God she has made For each of you she's even prayed So now won't you show some respect Put a stop to the years of neglect! All it takes is picking up the phone Tell her, You Love Her and She's Not Alone! An Uncle Charlie original © 2011 unclecharlie

wonderful write and as we age sorry to say we have created children that do not care to remember what was done for them, even the children who were greatly loved and cared for don't seem to be able to think of anyone but themselves, it's their shame. Light & Love
