Family Poem

When monsters lurked beneath my bed,
 and scary dreams ran through my head,
 when thunder growled, those sounds I dread,
 here I am, my father said.

 When scuffed-up knees sure made me cry,
 soft hankies wiped my sad eyes dry,
 coaxing me each time I tried, here I am,
 my mother sighed.

 Who held my hand when I was scared,
 ate the candy I should have shared,
 things I said because you dared, here I am,
 my sister stated..

 In times of trouble,
 in times of glee,
 I feel such strength surrounding me,
 with whose love I can't succeeded,
 I love you all, my family indeed.

 Copy Right.
