Intensity of affection
As deep as the Ocean
In the line of fire
Look back and there is
A brother or a sister
Standing in line prior

All descendants of
A common ancestor
Sons and daughters
Of brothers and sisters

Childhood spent together
Memorable moments a treasure
Crisis and agony endured
Trouble for one face it as one

Difference of opinion
Occurance most common
Cracks in relationships
Common and relatable

Natural to differ
That's nature's order
Something is out of order
If everything is in order

Strain of the dispute
Taking its toll
Communication the first victim
Distance the result

Does not give pleasure
Only makes one wonder
If it is worth the pressure
Time to take measures

Tragedy or calamity
Brings all under
One roof to ponder
How to tackle the intruder

Family values though by the elders of the house
Foundation laid strong
Value systems where they should belong

Greatest learning in the house
Lessons learnt from each other
Mother father no different to each other
Sense of oneness no one can teach better


Coming together inspite
At odds with each other
Pushed to the corner
Face us together

Times have changed
Families have grown
Independent on their own
Comfortable in their zone

All had mentors
Uncle's and brothers
Who shared their knowledge
Made life easier to tackle

A lifeline and an anchor
Provided when needed
All get together
Gods answer to the prayers

Our family is special
Oneness its Core
Whatever might have transpired
Value systems remain unchanged

In times of difficulty
There is no other place I'll be
In times of making merry
No other place I'd record in my memory
Just to be together
No other place I'll let the clock remind me
Many regrets i have but not the place I grew to be what i was to be
All the money all the fame all the power
I'd still want to learn life
From those who taught me
What it is to be
A Good Human Being
