My Family and I
My name is Anna and I am thirteen,
I love to dance, and of dancing I dream.
I have six siblings, but they don't all live here,
Three have grown up and moved out through the years.
Luke is the oldest and he married Michele,
They have three children of which to tell.
Maria comes next, she married Ron,
They have two children and they live over yon.
Miriam went to school and became an engineer,
And of hard work she does not fear.
Lydia is the middle, she still lives at home,
And in the woods she does like to roam.
Elijah likes to work online,
And many websites he does design.
Jubilee is the youngest yet,
And horses are her favorite pets.
If you asked my parents how they managed all this while,
They'd say "Without God we'd have never gone a mile."
