A poem written in gratefulness to a loud opinionated colorful family fill with love and affection

About My Family

© Betty Jean Henderson-McQuarters-Young


God gave me a family on Earth,
This family is just what you see,
Dysfunctional as any Family could ever be.
You Know, Families aren't meant to be perfect, just available, loving and caring in the time of need, just to embrace and plant a loving seed.
My family is loud and boisterous, a little noisy too, lawdy they are judgmental. they feel that's what they were put here to do.
My family comes in all colors, red, black, yellow and some white folks too, God does not limit a family just to please me and you.
This family has many talents, leaders, teachers, doctors, lawyers, mentors too.
There is so much value in this family, I'm just proud to be a part of you.
