THE FAMILY
REUMON |
By ANNE CAMPBELL' I
I
ifTpHB family reunion will be held
* ? again this year.
.'Once more we will renew the mellow
: ? friendships, tried and dear.
;Almost a hundred years ago, this
homestead was a dream,
A plan told In the candleglow that
made young glances gleam.
If these brick walls could speak, they'd
tell a tale of love grown old;
A cycle of warm hearts that blessed
Its hospitable fold.
A hundred years, a hundred souls that
gather once again
To testify to far-flung goals, and happy
wives and men.
The family reunion I Hepven throws
blue skies above!
The day Is touched with gold that is
bo wound about with love.
And for each guest assembled here,
there are too many more
That are so far and yet so near, upon
a trackless shore.
.
God bless the family! Make strong Its
deep, abiding ties.
Lore that Is tended keeps the warmth;
and beauty that we prize;
And even sunset skies are red with
cheer in winter weather,
When good friends gather, comforted,
around a fire together!
