Writing Family Into A Poem Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Gathered together around a dining room table, family young
and old, loving and sharing as I sit here writing about it
in a poem.

Talking, laughing, sharing with one another, eating, drink-
ing, (no alcohol) , celebrating my younger son's birthday
which is tomorrow.

Celebrating today because tomorrow is a work day for every-
one, loving the fact that we always get together to celebrate
each other's lives, accomplishments and our love of family.
