FAMILIES

We do not get to choose them,
we are born amongst them.
The path we lead in life,
is prompted by the direction
of those who love us.
Some of us lead happy lives.
Some don't have the hope
for one.
I consider myself lucky.
A Mother and Father,
who put me on a pedestal.
But yet I look up to them.
A younger Brother and Sister,
to share my knowledge
and love.
A Grandmother to Cherish.
To make my life complete,
A Husband,
to put me on a pedestal.
But yet we look eye to eye.
A Daughter,
To share my knowledge,
my love,
our secrets.
I ask myself,
What more could I want in life.
The answer is,
Nothing.
