Read Family Poems
“I don’t care
how poor a man is; if he has family, he’s rich.” This family
quote realizes how precious family is. Family poems express
everything about who we are due to the influence of our families
in our lives. Family is the ground works of what has made us
who we are. Family plays a big role in our personality, ethics,
and social networking and is obvious in family poetry. Many
times inspiration can be found in family stories told through
family poems.
Family is a pivotal part of everyone’s life
and is proven in family poems. The family quote by Benjamin
Disraeli reaffirms family’s importance with this: “No success
in public life can compensate for failure in the home.”
Families grow and move through life and often
holiday poems sharing
memories of one’s family during holidays. Family values are
important and often shown in poetry. Family offers hope for
real security in a stressful world.
The global family is equally important as
implied in Sara Paddinson’s family quote, “We are one big family
of people, trying to make our way through the unfolding puzzle
of life. We are all connected to one another in the heart.”
Family poems can be expanded to
friendship poems and love poems
and go beyond anymore one has an affinity to another.
Family poems preserve family memories and
share stories of a lost loved one in the family. Many times
death poems will speak of how the family cope with a resent
loss and family proves central to helping with the recovery of
many tragedy that happen in one’s life.
Family Poem of the Day
THE FAMILY
The dark things of the wood
Are coming from their caves,
Flexing muscle.
They browse the orchard,
Nibble the sea of grasses
Around our yellow rooms,
Scarcely looking in
To see what we are doing
And if they still know us.
We hear them, or think we do:
The muzzle lapping moonlight,
The tooth in the apple.
Put another log on the fire;
Mozart, again, on the turntable,
Still there is a sorrow
With us in the room.
We remember the cave.
In our dreams we go back
Or they come to visit.
They also like music.
We eat leaves together.
They are our brothers.
They are the family
We have run away from.
