Family Roots

For centuries a tree will bear many leaves,

They will come and go as the season change,

Some branches will be consumed by disease to wither and die,

Other branches will flourish and with it, fruit’s will grow

Each of these leaves has a pattern of its own,

Not two braches bend in the same way,

But throughout this family’s life,

They will all stay true

To their families,

Roots

I love when I'm the first reviewer... Anyway I love how pure this write was... The meaning behind it wasn't obvious and I think thats what the joy of writing is about. Family at the end of the day is the only thing a person can truely fully count on and I think you said it best with this writing. Thank you for sharing, yours truely Danielle
