The Family
The family is like a book---
The children are the leaves,
The parents are the covers
That protecting beauty gives.
At first the pages of the book
Are blank and purely fair,
But Time soon writes the memories
and paints the pictures there.
Love is the little golden clasp
That tightly bind the trust;
Oh, do not break it, or all the leaves
Will scatter and be lost!
