This was written about a recent dinner we had with my cousin Gay,
with family who came,
and with friends.
The ages spanned from
old to young,
The gathering defied
all ages,
They came to
celebrate a birthday,
They gathered to
celebrate each other,
Finding a bond in
life and living,
Through words their
hearts were giving,
At dinner prepared
with many hands,
Culture from home and
many lands,
Safe from harm in
open arms,
Enjoying images of
past memories,
With thoughts of
times to come,
We gathered here
together,
In the joy of all
that is true,
We gathered here
together,
For the chance to be
with you,
Gathering oranges
from the tree top,
At the tree in the
back yard,
To add joy to
familiar faces,
The work is no longer
hard,
For each moment is a
universe,
And nothing takes the
universe away,
For a moment in time
is a treasure,
Seed of joy for all
coming days.
