Family time was dinner time...

Family time was dinner time...

A Poem by Onlyme

How sad it's to see family life is crumbling under
modern times and quick fast food. To where no
one wants to eat together anymore in the home.

Unless it's sitting around a pizza or a curry from the fast food shop.
 Or else everyone is doing their
own thing. Eating different convenient foods as the quick
and easy and simple to do. No effort is needed for the task.


So no family time to converse, meet, spent time together.
Unless it's watching television or a movie. With a cup of tea
and popcorn or candy at hand.


I guess I am saying. How sad times have
changed where I actually miss
family times. Around the table.
Eating, chatting and sharing.

I guess that is why
Christmas Time around the
table is a big thing
for now at least.
In most homes.

Until that tradition changes!

I miss the days of a family meal daily. You are right. Fast pace world. Family meals are becoming rare. I watch movies and eat popcorn with grandchildren. Make homemade pizza. If we want. We can keep the good things alive for our kids. Always a pleasure to read your words and thoughts.
