My peom

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.
