Tribes

We all have our own

Many sizes shapes and colors

My tribe is mine… my story builders

Reflections of my life.

Keepers of my lessons, morals and memories.

Sometimes tribes intertwine

Building bigger the tribes from which one came

Generation upon generation

But to all…the tribes are the same.

The ones who made the first memories

Captured the best moments of our youth

Wove use into who we would one day turn into.

Not all tribes are great, and from some

Members gladly walk away

But when the tribe is strong and solid

Distance can never fade the bonds

For a solid tribe will always be filled with

Loved Ones. 

Embrace each tribal moment

For one day it will be only there to reflect upon

Members move, members pass, life continues on. 

The whole world is filled with so many,

Each one living in their own world

Their own space, doing their own things

On any given day… the events that effect one

Most likely will not matter to another…. 

Embrace who you’ve been given, 

solitude isn’t that much better.
