Childhood Gems
Sunday home bonding
festive midst fellowship bliss
dining as one team
over Dad and Mom’s menu
from luncheon to supper time…
Missing such moments
we still huddle together
though sometimes virtual…
siblings bound by parents’ love
thanking God* for childhood gems.
*Psalm 69:30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
