21. Toughest Of Times
During the toughest of times we must band together!
When the bad weather hits us straight on,
we have to get through that rough storm.
Holding each other with a tight grip

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

My whole family will keep talking deep inside my head
It's hard to pay attention to everything that's said
They're yelling out their criticism and it's not one by one
Or their grumbling disapproval for something I have done
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,
As mother, I am nurturer.
A guardian, a guide
As mother, I am gentleness
A warmth of selfless pride
A cherished gift
Your family's love
A gift to me
From God above
time is lighter than a feather
through your fingers it slips
and after time and time
my jar of love never tips
Grandmas are beams of sunshine built into a hug
That leaves a smile on your face and love within you heart
Grandpas are the wise ole ones that are cuddly as a bear
Who always have a neat new trick and story yet to share
Family is a funny thing
People living in harmony
We will experience some pain
A warm welcome
A how do you do
Words of kindness
And comfort too
How does love grow?
Everyone should know!
It's a gift of giving,
Which we hope to keep receiving.
What family means to me is more
Than mere words can convey.
It's been the basis for my life
And how I've faced each day.
