Friendship        by Eve Hall

One friend who understands,
is better than ten who don't.
One friend who will listen to you,
is better than ten who won't.
One friend who holds your hand,
is better than ten in all the land.
One friend who is always there,
is better than ten who just don't care.
One friend who gives you good advice,
is better than ten who just try to be nice.
I cherish this one friend, like silver and gold,
this one friend is you, to have and to hold.


Family Reunions    by Eve Hall

A time of togetherness,
A time of love and happiness,
A time for watermelon, potato salad,
Baked beans, sweet potato pie,
Barbecue, ice tea, homemade ice cream,
Corn on the cob, soda pops,
Cards, dominoes, horseshoes, baseball,
Family, parents, friends, babies,
Grand & Great Grandparents, In-laws,
Grandkids, uncles, aunts, sons, daughters,
Hugs, kisses, photo albums, smiles, laughter,
Remembering the good times and the bad times,
Remembering the fears and the tears,
Yet, still sticking together after ALL these years!
