Most Commented Family Poems (502)

My big girl
how you have
grown before
my eyes into
a beautiful
young lady.
You have
figured out
your life
that lays
before you.
You have made
plans to set
your life
in motion for
all to be in
unison.
You are a
encouragement
to your brother
and sister.
They see all
they can be
by what you
have planned &
accomplished.
I am proud of
you my young
women who is in
the world not
of the world.

Family and your job
have a big influence
on your life whether
you know it or not.
Sometimes it is good
Sometimes it is bad.
Sometimes family is
not one you choose
but one that is
chosen for you
by the government.

For in the yard they
are playing ball.
Around the table
they are eating
their haul.
talking stuff here
and there letting
everyone know that
they are there.
Smoking cigarettes,
cigars and candles
all around careful
where you step as
you might fall down.
Enjoy the fellowship
for it is all around.
Let the feeling show
on your face laugh,
giggle and embrace.
For time fleets by
so fast it does not
seem to last.
Enjoy what you have
for now for soon it
will change somehow.

Segregated section
set apart from one
another division
among the old
and young.
Groups of 50
different yet so
familiar to each
other.
FAMILY
FRIENDS
Both in one yet i
am by the side no
place to call my
very own
which group is mine
NONE
no one like me
just me successful
i shift from one
group to another
LINGERLY
LOOKING
For a place
that i can
BELONG.
Where is that?
When is that?
Who knows the
ANSWER?

Mary you are
leaving me for
you want me to
grow in the Lord.
You carry on your
life to your family
you go, when i see
you today i want
you to stay.
For i will miss
you my dear you
truly are my friend
and mother in Christ.
Your feelings are
so sincere to me
i just do not want
you to disappear.

For as you grow you mature into
yourself by separating from
the nest.
You go off to college and
learn what it is like to be
an adult to manage your
money and grow into yourself.
Surprisingly you find your life
coming together.
You are finally a women of your
own time for you know what
you want and you aim for that goal.
I release you my child to begin
your life anew to be the women
you always intended to be.

young is old whilst old be young , we marched the deserts suffered the cold starved to win we are old , we survived lack of food when budgets tight we walked for miles when the car broke down we worked in cold or hot to pay the bills we are young , ancestors to current both endure the same at different times in lifes fate, yet share a tomb or the pillow at night as tommorow will bring a new light

Where-ever I am
What-ever I do
Know...........with all your heart
That I...........Love YOU

to cherish a moment,
is to hold something,
dear,
in your heart,
like in life
it lives with you,
the angel hom i cherish,
is my mother,
who in every day believes in me,
no matter,
what wrongs i do,
this angel lives with me,
all of my life,
my mother

5 minutes, always just 5 minutes, goes like this, babes, going to the shop, will only be 5 minutes, but the Question, is it really just 5 minutes, thinking to myself, isnt the 5 minutes statement not just a everyday saying, can anybody really tell me how long 5 minutes is, believe me, if you have an emergency somewhere and you call for assistance, the operator might create the expresssion that the Unit will only take 5 minutes...time of arrival, but believe me, that 5 minutes is a life time, the clock ticks in its own mind, and you wonder, is there no way to speed the process up, no 5 minutes, I dont trust you at all, let me dont move to the bedroom, 5 minutes, shame on you, now I realize why the divorce rate is so high, men it is not a crime to use Viagra, 1st impressions last

The power of the mind is stronger than the body
