Family Reunions

A time of: togetherness
A time of love and happiness
A time for watermelon, potato salad
Baked beans, sweet potato pie,
Barbecue, iced tea, homemade ice cream
Corn on the cob, soda pop.
A time for: playing cards, dominoes, horseshoes
Baseball, taking pictures.
A time with: family, parents, friends, babies,
Grandparents, grandkids, mothers, fathers Sisters,
brothers, uncles, aunts, sons, daughters, cousins, in-laws.
A time for: hugs, kisses, photo albums, smiles and laughter.
Remembering the good times and the bad times,
Remembering the fears, the tears, yet
Sticking together after all these years.
