The People I Love Best

Affection

There is never a dull moment;
hooting, cheering, playing, jeering.
They discern my misery
and turn my frown

upside down.

Bed head,
covered in muck,
or ready for the ball;
not a care in the world.
We laugh
to make things right.
We cry
when our heads are jumbled.
No matter how far,
they are always there.

These are the People I love best.
