The Cake
When a cake is baked
you put icing on it
but if you bake a cake
and leave off the icing
the cake is good
but not as good,
a family is like a cake
time and patience
goes into it
but you never know
if the cake will fall,
waiting, hoping,praying
that every thing comes out right
the cake is good
but something is missing
cause with out the icing
time,and love that goes into it
the cake can not be enjoyed
now finish the cake
put the icing on
and you can see how much more
the cake can be enjoyed
the cake could be
any part of the family
like the icing, if it was gone
it wouldn't be as sweet
so lets always
keep the icing on our cake......
