What We Wouldn't do for Family

poem

What wouldn't you do for your family?

could it be moving furniture;

babysitting a toddler;

planting a garden;

financial help;

Why do we do these things?

could it be for some kind of reward?

hugs,

kisses,

monetary reward,

or just maybe a Thank you.

What is the answer?

I have done all of this at one time or another.

But, you know at times it just seems like the more you help the more they need or want.

It is hard to say 'No.'

What to do?

Helping out family is like a Catch-22-

You are right then you are wrong.

I guess it is just a matter of choice.
