The Family Recipe



What creates the glue that sticks


When a family like the Sun does rise


It takes a combination rich


It starts in a young couples eyes.


Unselfish love is the bond's first spice


It's flavor adds the primary taste


It's lessons give the true advice


Shielding all inside from waste.


The recipe adds patience next


At times it seems to stand alone


But the combination's found in text


Blending with love to form a home.


You'll be surprised to learn for sure


The last ingredient in the mix


Is wisdom gathered from the cure


When mistakes made at last are fixed.


Please take the time and have a gaze


At all the rewards around your feet


Although the recipe seemed a maze


You could do no better in repeat.
