Like branches of a rooted, sturdy tree my family survives- each limb entwined. __by Poet So wistful are my thoughts since Easter day: my husband, children, grandkids, and great-grands, were with me at our home- a getaway for some who traveled far to all join hands; show how our family's deep love expands. Then came goodbyes, not knowing where or when a chance will come when we all meet again- be all together, gathered in one place; fulfill my hope, that this craved wish will then uplift my wistful heart as we embrace.
