Friends may come and friends may go <br />Family is first and this I know <br />Putting friends first is a mistake <br />And not one that you should make <br /> <br />Family’s forever and this I know <br />Friends enter your life and then they go <br />Making friends is fun trust me with this <br />But not something you would miss <br /> <br />Love your family while they are here <br />Keep their love very near <br />Family can leave the world at any time <br />So don’t make yourself feel like slime <br /> <br />Family is here to comfort you <br />I know your friends do this too <br />Without your family you would be lost <br />Hold on to them no matter the cost<br /><br />Bonnie B Long<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/family-first-3/
