The Jenney - Hamilton clan
Came together with a plan,
Four older boys of Sandy
Daves triplets make it dandy.
We have two Drews'
It doesn't give us the blues.
Five December birthdays of the 5 we have at home,
We sometimes feel we need to get a loan.
We get along great,
Blended families do rate!

Blended Family Poem

This one's yours and that one's mine

If we marry, we'll have ourselves a time

Keeping up with natural relationships for sure

because love is love, it must stay healthy and pure.


So let's work together to blend a family from the start

Taking care to nurture everyone's heart

It isn't easy and there will be obstacles no doubt

Emotions will run from sadness to happiness, from cheer to pout.


Learning to listen to one another's feelings is key

Giving everyone consideration; not just what's best for me

Help us each day to remember the commitment we make

To strengthen our relationships so the cords don't break.

Miracle in Time
 
I see her sleeping and sometimes wonder
through the rain and all that thunder
she is a miracle in time
 
This miracle in time, I see
has made my heart feel so free
I do not feel worthy
 
A smile, a kiss, sometimes a hug
she runs to me with lots of love
this little angel sleeping
 
Sincerely,
 
Sandy K.

Dinner

Always an under current,

their comings and goings shift on a river of fire

with ever the chance of a flare up.

Quick words, in anger, meant to hurt, less than to convey meaning,

then it is over, for now.

Easier to simply let go, put the feelings aside,

but who can with a daughter. His daughter.

Families come together as opposing poles,

each member with agenda,

seldom spoken.

Must someone always be right?

Who can win the argument?

Try not to let it end,

let it move in and out,

like the sea.

Perhaps at end of the sad time

caring feelings remain.
