Family

so grateful to be part of a family

ancestral streams or by relationship means

a place of belonging

sometimes of longing

to feel we are one

one great family

unique yet the same

learning and teaching

as we participate in the game

the game of life

with love and support

patience and understanding

feeding the flow

while allowing that commanding

to seek the new

be they many or few

in the families we have chosen

opportunities keep arriving

to attend to what we are striving

for in balance and beauty

our sacred duty

in becoming the more

like nothing before

families of love
