i knew His friends
even before He did
they introduced us
when i was a kid
i know His mom
she’s always so sweet
His father is too
they live on my street
His sister, rose
a goddess on earth
His other, maya
has a heart like a hearth
His brother dave
is moved out now
but on weekends
still comes to town
His auntie jane got married
only just this may
and already she’s pregnant
and the baby’s due sunday
and uncle chuck
on His dad’s side
who puts in windows
his wife just died
chuck’s sister
aunt marmalade
has three old cats
and needs a maid
His dad’s mother
goes to church every week
she always bakes cookies
She’s nice, but she’s meek
His mother’s mother
is crumbling at the seams
she has dementia still
she thinks she lives in queens
her husband is reserved
but a nice old man
he loves her so much
he helps her how he can
He has a child
i like her a lot
she’s three years old
her name is charlotte
i love Him so much
so imagine my strife
when He introduced me
to His beautiful wife
