Loving Poems about Family

Poems on Family Love: Celebrating the Unbreakable Bonds of Family

Our family is the proverbial egg that we were hatched from. Everything about who we are, both our nature and nurture comes from our family. Often in western society, we stray far from our family and may not talk to them for years at a time. We may feel that we have nothing in common with them. We may choose to run away from our roots because they are too painful to face. Ultimately however, our past holds the key to our future. If we do not face where we come from, we will have difficulty understanding our present and future.

53 Poems about the Importance of Family

1. A Family Is Like A Circle
- By Nicole M. O'Neil
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
What is a family? Each of the first 3 stanzas uses a different simile to explain how deep and lasting the connection between family members is. Similies are figures of speech that expresses a resemblance between things of different kinds, using the word like or as.

A family is like a circle.
The connection never ends,
and even if at times it breaks,
in time it always mends.

A family is like a circle.
The connection never ends,
and even if at times it breaks,
in time it always mends.

A family is like the stars.
Somehow they're always there.
Families are those who help,
who support and always care.

A family is like a book.
The ending's never clear,
but through the pages of the book,
their love is always near.

A family is many things.
With endless words that show
who they are and what they do
and how they teach you so you know.

But don't be weary if it's broken
or if through time it's been so worn.
Families are like that -
they're split up and always torn.

But even if this happens,
your family will always be.
They help define just who you are
and will be a part of you eternally.

2. A Grandparent's Love
- By Tina Williams
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
The memories of childhood are never forgotten and are often in the forefront of our minds.

It seems like only yesterday
Our lives were just beginning.
Your love for us never failed,
Our hearts continually mending.

It seems like only yesterday
Our lives were just beginning.
Your love for us never failed,
Our hearts continually mending.

It is strange to watch the time fly
Before our very eyes,
Which reminds me of the blessing,
That we have you in our lives.

To have yet to feel the touch
That's as gentle as your hand
The closeness of our family
One could never understand.

As each of our lives
Continues to change,
Reflections of your love
In each of us remains.

You have pointed out the path
And led us along the way;
The wisdom you have planted,
We each still hold today.

You sheltered us through childhood
And saw us through today,
Taught us of the Lord above,
About faith, and how to pray.

One day we'll all be in heaven
Dancing on the throne,
Praising God for giving us
A family like we've never known.

No matter where our lives may go,
We will trust the Lord above
And through it all always thank him
For our grandparents' love.

3. The Blessings Of A Big Family
- By Jennifer L. Sylvester
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
How wonderful and special to be part of a big family that lives harmoniously.

The blessings of a big family
are only seen by a few
A few of the chosen ones
that God has given this blessing to

The blessings of a big family
are only seen by a few
A few of the chosen ones
that God has given this blessing to

The blessings are so numerous
it's hard to even start
to number or to name them but
they all hold a place in the heart

The heart of every person in a
big family is unique
its uniqueness makes us special
and should not be critiqued

The memories that are made
are more precious than gold
from babies to weddings
from young and to old

From grandparents to grandchildren
and everyone in between
the many special relationships that are built
and could have never been foreseen

Thank you God
for my big family I will treasure
through the good times and bad
the memories could not be measured

Thank you God
for birthdays, simple get-togethers and even the tears
for I pray that these blessings
last many, many more years

To have a big family
can be a lot of work, not just play
but life is too short
so I THANK GOD FOR MY BIG FAMILY TODAY!

4. A Tribute To Family
- By Michelle A. Moran
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
A family starts with only two, and if they're lucky and work hard, they can create something magical called a family.

Thank You To Parents

I don't know when it started,
Or how it all began,
But God created families,
As only our Lord can.

I don't know when it started,
Or how it all began,
But God created families,
As only our Lord can.

He was teaching what it means
To love, honor, and obey.
He wanted a strong bond
That we don't see too much today.

He wanted someone to hold us
And show respect for others.
He wanted someone who'd be gentle,
So he created mothers.

He wanted someone strong,
A support filled with love,
So he created fathers,
Sent from heaven up above.

Brothers and sisters came next,
With that, an instant friend.
Someone to look up to,
Someone on whom to depend.

When he put them all together,
He was amazed at what he'd done.
He had created a family,
Mother, father, daughter, son.

But look at the family,
Created by only two.
How many we've become,
And all because of you.

We have a lot to be thankful for,
The memories through the years.
The many times together,
Full of laughter, full of tears.

I don't know where we'd be today,
If it weren't for the two of you.
To show us strength, support, and love,
Like only the two of you can do.

5. Family
- By Josephine Zavala-Florez
- Published by Family Friend Poems May 2018
My poem demonstrates the importance of family. Sometimes we take them for granted without even realizing it. They are the ones who are there when no one else is. No family is perfect, but they were given to you for a reason. So saying "I love you" more often can soften a difficult day, and a little hug can go a long way in expressing a heart of gratitude toward those you love.

The Importance Of Family

God gave each of us a special family
that we can call our own.
A family that loves us for who we are
so we would never feel alone.

God gave each of us a special family
that we can call our own.
A family that loves us for who we are
so we would never feel alone.

They may not like everything we do
or everything we say,
but the beautiful thing about "family"
is that they love us anyway.

Sometimes we feel rejected
by people who do not care,
but our hearts are warmed when remembering
that our family is always there!

So hug them a little more often,
for sometimes we hurt the ones we love.
And tell them how much you love them,
for they were sent to you from above.

6. A Parent's Heart
- By Ann T. Tran
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
Who can you really turn to when the chips are down?

Poem About Parent

When you feel like breaking down or crashing in,
Who do you turn to, to forgive your sin?
When you cried your lonely tears,
Who will be there to fight your fears?

When you feel like breaking down or crashing in,
Who do you turn to, to forgive your sin?
When you cried your lonely tears,
Who will be there to fight your fears?
And when it feels like no one would understand,
Who was there to hold your hand?

There are people whom you can't replace,
They're the ones who gave you your face.
They'll love you through thick and thin,
They show you the light from deep within.
And if by chance you happen to die,
They'll be the ones who will really cry.

You see, my friend, there's no one who can love you more
Than your very own parents, that's for sure.
Always remember this is true,
That wherever you go, your parents will be there for you.

7. While You Weren't Here
- By Janet Michael
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
A poem written by a woman who was abandoned by an important person in her life. Though the experience has made her a stronger person, she sometimes wishes to go back to the time when this person was in her life.

Emotional Poem About Coping After Abandonment

While you weren't here
I cried every night.
A million tears fell,
Still my heart wasn't right.

While you weren't here
I cried every night.
A million tears fell,
Still my heart wasn't right.

While you weren't here
I did what I could,
Hoping against hope
My decisions were good.

While you weren't here
I gained some in age.
Things just went on
And life turned a page.

While you weren't here
I just tried to go on,
Knowing what didn't kill me
Would only make me strong.

While you weren't here
A whole lot got changed.
My life became different,
My world rearranged.

While you weren't here
I had to learn to be alone,
To stand on my two feet,
To make my own home.

So that's where I am now,
At this stage of my life,
Still scared and alone,
Still coping with strife.

And oh how I wish that
Things could be different,
That I could go back
To a time in the past,

To a time before
You weren't here.

8. I Love You All, My Family
- By Shayla S. Randolph
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
A girl writes a poem about her family: her father, mother, and brother. They were and are each there for her in different ways, and knowing that is a great source of comfort and support.

When monsters lurked beneath my bed
And scary dreams ran through my head,
When thunder growled those sounds I dread,
There you were,

When monsters lurked beneath my bed
And scary dreams ran through my head,
When thunder growled those sounds I dread,
There you were,
My father.

When scuffed up knees made me cry,
Soft hankies wiped my sad eyes dry,
Coaxing me each time I tried.
You were always there,
My mother.

Who held my hand when I was scared?
Ate candy that he should have shared?
The things I did because you dared,
My brother.

In times of trouble, times of need,
I feel such strength surrounding me,
Without whose love I can't succeed.
I love you all, my family.

9. To My Family With Love
- By Anna C. Butler
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
The one who knows the blessings and support of a family lacks nothing.

The love of this family can show the work of God
To prevail over our weakest of moments
To lend a hand or mend a broken heart.

The love of this family can show the work of God
To prevail over our weakest of moments
To lend a hand or mend a broken heart.

To cry or laugh with one another shall always be
Embraced with open arms and a smiling face.

Times they are tough, but alone you will never be
To have the love of this family
It's as easy as one, two, three.

The joy of a birth, to watch a little life grow
Are memories to cherish that we will never let go

The pain of a death, the emptiness felt inside,
The family is all here, no need to hide

Over the years our surroundings have changed
Now God has blessed us with a little James.

May our daughters grow into little women
They better all remember my sweet baby lemon.

To be so lucky to have a family like this
When we all get to Heaven, God deserves a big kiss.

In our souls, minds, and hearts
May this family never be torn apart

The love of this family has shown me the work of God
To realize this gift for the world to see, how much my family cares for me

May our love grow and carry on even long after we are all gone

Thank you to my family for the love that you all show
Every good deed God will surely know.

10. In Your Eyes
- By Megan Smith

Look in the person's eyes who you love. What do you see?

What Eyes Tell About A Person Poem

You can see all in a person's eyes.
Their pain, guilt, happiness, sadness, fear.
It's all there, if you just take the time to look.
In your eyes I see someone unlike any other,

You can see all in a person's eyes.
Their pain, guilt, happiness, sadness, fear.
It's all there, if you just take the time to look.
In your eyes I see someone unlike any other,
A strong soul, brave, with a big heart,
Blessed with the gift to bring happiness and laughter.
With open arms embracing every day to the fullest,
A spirit fit to soar with the eagles, wild and free.
Never to let the impending day's work bring her down.
This spirit will live on forever,
In the eyes of your children, grandchildren, and so on.
You've given us all a gift,
The most wonderful gift you could give, your love.
And now, I see in my eyes a part of you,
Because you are in my heart forever and for always.

Your family's love
I'll treasure deep

12. Family Matters
- By Martha Anderson
- Published by Family Friend Poems July 2015
I wrote this poem when a family member who I had not seen in many years suddenly passed away. When the news reached me, my thoughts went back to our childhood days when we were so very close and how we allow the cares of this world and the busyness of life to separate us. Family is what matters most.

Poem About Contacting Family Members

How often do we push aside
The thought to make a call
To just one family member
Who we rarely see at all?

How often do we push aside
The thought to make a call
To just one family member
Who we rarely see at all?

Do we know if they are doing well
Or married still?
Do we know if someone close to them
Is sick or very ill?

Are we concerned at how much time
Has passed since we last met?
And are we sure we can afford
To sit and just forget?

We should not waste another day
In doing things we'd rather.
Instead, we should reach out once more
Because our family matters.

This poem is all about the undefined love which I receive from my siblings. I have one elder brother and one elder sister. Both are like a role model for me. Now we live apart from each other, but each day brings the thought to return to childhood and live with my siblings. I love them very much and hope they always climb the staircase of success. The care they have for their youngest sister is amazing.

Life is passing so quickly,
Dreams are proliferating so rapidly,
But in the middle of all these,
Memories are embracing so tightly...

Life is passing so quickly,

Still the care we tend to do is most wondrous...

Rare is the love which I receive from you,
Precious is the knowledge which I receive from you,
But paramount of all these,
Peculiar are my siblings which I receive from God...

15. Family Reunion
- By Ryan Guerrero
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2008
Ryan Guerrero lives in Denver Colorado. This poem was written for our Guerrero, Miramontes reunion July 4-5, 2008 in Scottsbluff, Nebraska.

Once In A Lifetime

Not enough hours in the day, we often say
we watch as the busyness of life allows time to slip away.

Before we know, days turn to months and months into years,

Not enough hours in the day, we often say
we watch as the busyness of life allows time to slip away.

Before we know, days turn to months and months into years,
Time is mapped with laughter and cheers,
the long road sometimes landmarked with sadness and tears.

Elders pass and children grow.
Has it been that long we ask, where does the time go?

Not every chance to gather is taken.
"We'll see them next time," we say and hope we're not mistaken.

A chance like now comes once in a lifetime, it seems,
when the bright light of family is nurtured and beams.
There will be laughter and time to reminisce.
We will all be proud this is a chance we did not miss.

Those with a loving family are wealthier than those with much money.

Poem About A Loving Family Eating Together

They say that times were tough then
That money was very tight
But I remember my childhood
And I know that can't be right

They say that times were tough then
That money was very tight
But I remember my childhood
And I know that can't be right

Mom would cook our dinner
Dad came home at five
We were all sitting at the table
Waiting for him to arrive

We wouldn't eat from a microwave
Or a restaurant down the street
We all ate Mom's home cooking
And boy, that can't be beat

We didn't eat in front of the TV
Or with a phone in our hand
We weren't plugged into a stereo
Bopping to the latest band

We would all sit at the table
Everyone in their place
There were never any surprises
We recognized every face

Brothers to the left of me
Sisters to the right
That's the way we ate dinner
Every single night

We laughed, we joked, we talked, we ate
We were a family, don't you see
Though some may have been raised poor
You can see it wasn't me

We ate collards, we ate biscuits
We ate fatback and blackeyed peas
We said yes sir, we said no sir
We said thank you ma'am and please

So when you talk of family life
Or how it used to be
Though many had more money
None were as rich as me

17. My Equator...The Center Of The World
- By Jackie D. Karp
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
A woman talks about the importance of family. They're always there when you need them, and she is grateful that they have helped her mature into a young woman.

You are the meaning of strength
at its highest peak.
You have courage
when the rest of us are weak.

You are the meaning of strength
at its highest peak.
You have courage
when the rest of us are weak.
You inspire me
to live for the now
and to never give up
because you don't know how.
I've learned from you
why family comes first.
It's because when you need them,
they're there when you hurt.
No matter the pain,
it all hurts the same.
And family you can count on
to always remain.
When the road gets rocky,
you seem to take each bump
and walk over them smoothly,
hump after hump.
You have no idea
about the effect you've made,
and with the lessons I've learned
my life's made a change.
Not just a change
but also a growth.
From an immature child
to a young woman with hope.

Family is a funny thing
People living in harmony

We will experience some pain
But in the end, we will always gain

People change and people grow
Yet every seed is always sown

We take from each other what we will use
In our lives that we eventually choose

Yet we never forget about who we are
No matter if we are close or far

Togetherness will always be in our heart
No matter if we ever part

So when we feel afraid and alone
Always remember that there is no place like home

19. Love Lives In Our Soul

I was inspired to write this because of the letters that my granny always sends me.

Poem About Power Of Love

time is lighter than a feather
through your fingers it slips
and after time and time
my jar of love never tips

time is lighter than a feather
through your fingers it slips
and after time and time
my jar of love never tips

for love is stronger than hate
it slaps it in the face
it's like an angel
but stays in the same place

for where it stays is in my heart
and my heart will never break
thy sorrow and sadness
to happy it will make

we all have invisible halos above our head
different personalities they give us
for I have love
are you the one with trust?

20. The Power Of Family
- By Antony Smith
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
The power of family is beautifully depicted in this poem.

Family is
heaven sent from our father above,
bonded by the power of love.
No matter what, family has each other's backs

Family is
heaven sent from our father above,
bonded by the power of love.
No matter what, family has each other's backs
when push comes to shove.

Family is
understanding, never demanding,
all for one and one for all.
I will never leave you alone standing.

Family is
one in itself; my love is your love.
Your pain is my pain, my wealth is your wealth.
I promise to never leave you by yourself.

Family is
the strongest team, the strongest unit.
If love could be visualized,
family would be the blueprint.

Family is
forgiveness and patience.
It's sweeter than the sweetest fragrance.
The power of family is a reflection of God's compassion and magnificence.

Family is
never turning our back, and never placing shames.
Lending my helping hand and not a finger pointing the blame.

No matter what, a family bond can never be broken.
Even through a nuclear explosion,
if one of us lives, we all live.
Forever to eternity, we are family,
My father, my mother, my sisters, and me.
