PRECIOUS FAMILY





blood that flows
thru my veins,

hard to live with 
harder to live without.

worth the effort to protect
the cord,

not an easy task
like walking a tight rope.

balance is key…

can’t be all about me

planting a seed
transplanted thru generations,

harvested with great care
encore then adore
each bairn born.

It’s a miracle 
some satirical
belittle the value,

let it pass by 
with a big sigh.

glad I don’t know why
so precious
in my mind,

can’t find anything more
essential.

until my dying day
I will shield 
the blood that flows 
thru my veins.
