FAMILY DAY

 

 

 

 

 

 

OCTOBER 19th, 2012

 

 

FAMILY DAY

 

 

We have a father’s day

A mother’s day

A grandparents day

And God knows

What other kinds of day

 

WHY NOT-A FAMILY DAY

What about a day

Where all people

Can put away their grudges

With their families, their exes, etc.

AWAY-for just one day

 

I know

We already have Christmas

And I know

I am a bit ideological in my thinking

But what about it?

Would you consider it?

What about a FAMILY DAY for everyone

 

The following

Is a poem that I wrote about families

 

I happen to be Catholic/Christian

But my idea

Is for ALL people

Of ALL faiths

 

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

A FAMILY IS

 

A family is life

A family is love

A family is God’s Light

Shining on us

From up above

 

A family is

Loving each other

Even when we don’t like them

A family is

Being kind to each other

When we don’t want to

 

A family is life

A family is love

A family is GOD’S LIGHT

Shining on us

From up above

 

A family is accepting each other

Accepting each other for who they are

Not who you want them to be

 

A family is FORGIVING each other

When they acted in a way

That we don’t understand

Or

When they don’t even try

To lend a hand

 

A family is life

A family is love

A family is GOD’S LIGHT

Shining on us

From up above

 

A FAMILY IS LOVE

Ps        Proper behavior for children and parents

 

“Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right

 

“Honor your father and mother-“

Which is the first commandment with a promise

“That it may go well with you

And that you may enjoy long life on this earth”

 

Fathers-do not exasperate your children

In stead bring them up

In the training and instruction of the Lord”                         Ephesians 6:1-4
