What is a family?
What is a family? A family is a knitted blanket with threads falling out and new ones taking their place. (This paragraph is supposed to symbolize divorce.)
What is a family? A family is different blocks put together in one single structure-getting taller and taller, year by year. (This paragraph is supposed to symbolize family growing)
What is a family? A family is a deck of cards, Old ones getting taken away and getting replaced by new ones. (This paragraph is supposed to symbolize death and birth.)
I wrote this poem on my own, it’s based on my own family.
