A Family
- By Patricia Biddle
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 2012 with permission of the Author.
My name is Patricia, and I am the eighth of nine children. My parents taught us growing up that God and family are there for you when no one else is. As a result of our upbringing, we are a very close knit family. My family has stood by my side through the good times and the bad, as I have been there for them. Without their support I am not sure I would be where I am today. My family is comprised of not only my parents, brothers and sisters, but also my true and loyal friends.

You Are God's Glorious Gift!
- By Lalitha A. Mishra
- Published by Family Friend Poems April 2019 with permission of the Author.
God put years in my life; she put life in my years...my daughter! When she gurgled in my arms as a newborn, I was ecstatic! When her baby lips called "mamma," my heart did cartwheels. When she clutched my thumb tight on her first day of school, I felt a pang too. With her achievements, my chest swelled with pride. With her disappointments, I was crestfallen too. Now, watching the chrysalis emerging into a butterfly, a rainbow of emotions envelops me. Truly, as a daughter grows, a mother glows!

Grandmother
- By Shrabasti Batabyal
- Published by Family Friend Poems April 2019 with permission of the Author.
My grandmother (Aparna Sengupta) left us on March 12, 2017, on the day of Holi. The gods welcomed her in their garden after a year of extreme pain and suffering. Two years have passed, but I still miss my granny a lot. She was the person with whom I spent the long lonely hours. She was the person with whom I used to sleep. Her presence was the relief, the place of confession that my young mind searched for. I missed her for the last two years, I miss her today, and I will always miss her in my life.

Fathers are fun - and serious too!
And you learn more from them than you do at school.
Think of all the good times you've had.
How would it be without your dad?
Everything would be harder with no mentor for growth.
Reflect on the man who loves you the most.
Soon will come the day for you to fill his shoes.

Do you think your dad would accept an excuse?
Always try your best, that's what he would say.
Yes, think of your dad on this Father's Day!

- By Graham Craven

Brother Acrostic Poem

in Brother Poems

Back in the day when we were young,
Risking our necks on some great adventure,
Others would mock our idea of fun,
Telling tall tales or hiding Gran's dentures.

Back in the day when we were young,
Risking our necks on some great adventure,
Others would mock our idea of fun,
Telling tall tales or hiding Gran's dentures.
Hungry bellies fueled our ambition.
Each of us choosing a professional path,
Receiving awards and peer recognition.
Sibling rivals we may be, but we're always game for a laugh.

Lessons From A Father Acrostic Poem

in Father Poems

Facing some of the toughest times in life

Facing some of the toughest times in life
Always seem a little easier with someone by your side
Two have always been better than one.
He taught me that and taught me how to have fun.
Everyone should be leaning on the other, not pointing fingers and blaming one another.
Rest easy, fly high, until we meet again, I've never say goodbye, I'll just say "until then."

Family

- Published by Family Friend Poems April 2019 with permission of the Author.
It is an Acrostic poem that spells out FAMILY. I'm a shy person who doesn't like talking to people much, or simply put, I'm usually lonely and emotional too. But my sister and my parents still do love me for the person I am and encourage me any way possible. So in this poem, I wanted to show and prove to others that no matter what happens, the only people who'll always love you is your family. They are an irreplaceable existence.

MOTHER, I want you to know I love you so.
YOUR'E missed beyond belief, for you will never know.

MEMORY is what God gave to us; you are my hero.
OFFERING peace, love and one day soon a touch to show
TRUTH is what you always taught; sometimes it is hard to swallow.
HEAVEN is now your home, somewhere over the rainbow.
EXCEEDING my selfish wants, Mama I live in your shadow.
REALITY is here to stay as I scream your name on my pillow.

MISSING you Mama, I sometimes get lost in sorrow.
YOUR voice, your smile and loving ways are something that pierces my soul as I bellow.

FRIENDSHIP is what I miss the most.
REGAINING my confidence to carry on.
INSPIRATION is what you gave, keeping your memory alive
EVERY
NIGHT and
DAY!
