And travel life for years without you
And should I never return to our home

And should the time in passing
Bring me memories of regret
Should the...

This is a poem.
It's not abstract.
So if you just sit back and listen,

By Franklin Price

Family ties are always there
Throughout our lives for whom we care
Expanding as our journeys change
