  2. 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!

    in Daughter Poems

    D azzling is your smile; it lights up my way
    A s I go about my mundane chores every day.
    U nfailingly, I look forward to our daily chat.
    G enuine and deep is our bond, I believe that.

  5. 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.

    in Grandmother Poems

    G for the Glamour of her wrinkled, old face.
    R for the way my mind she used to Refresh.
    A for her Anger, which knew no bounds.
    N is how she Nurtured us without a sound.

    Today was the hardest day of my life. I attended my grandma's funeral. Seeing my mum so upset broke my heart. Although my grandma was 94, no time is ever a good time to say goodbye. Grandma, may you be happy tonight as you rest in peace side by side with Grandpa. Going to miss you so much. Love you with all my heart.

    Grandma is one special angel, a

    M-My life would be a mess without you.
    O-Of many sacrifices, I can remember you made and ever do.

    • Published by Family Friend Poems April 2019 with permission of the Author.

    My acrostic poem is about the impression that my father-in-law made on me. He was, hands down, one of my heroes in life. He will be greatly missed, and no one will ever take his place.

    in Father Poems

    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.

    • By Alice Sukuna
    • 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.

    Forever together,
    Alone no more.
    Many precious memories, which gives out an
    Indescribable feeling of

    Fathers are fun - and serious too!
    And you learn more from them than you do at school.

  15. Brothers - Game For A Laugh

    • By Graham Craven
    • Published by Family Friend Poems April 2019 with permission of the Author.

    My brother and I shared some great adventures when we were young, but as we grew older, we may have been guilty of trying to out-do each other. We would always have a laugh about it though.

    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.

  16. 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.

    in Acrostic Poems

    F - Fiercely loyal to those we love.
    A - Accepting each for who and what they are.
    M - Matchless in our hopes and dreams for one another.
    I - Instilling pride in our hard-fought heritage.
