Family Tree
In the attic with dust so gray
Sat a trunk with an old book
Nothing else to do that day
Thought that I would have a look
Amongst its musty pages lay
A picture of our family tree
Nothing else to do that day
Wondered who or what I’d see
Relatives standing in fine array
Generations grew and grew
Nothing else to do that day
Kept looking through and through
Turned the pages without delay
Many furry creatures found
Nothing else to do that day
Eyes to that book were bound
Then there were to my dismay
Creepy crawlers from the sea
Nothing else to do that day
But recognize they were a part of me
If you look in the top branch you will see me with my ukulele!
A lovely family tree poem…nothing else to do right now…so I pressed the ‘like’ button…just joking… loving it from the bottom of my heart.
Have a great weekend ahead~ Cheers!!
It is nice to have nothing else to do. lol
I wish I could find the time to do nothing else.

I loved the poem relating to your history. It is one so many people can relate to. A pleasure to read!
Actually it is a history ALL of us relate to. lol
Some people just don’t like to look at the roots of the tree.
Thanks so much for your comment.
I love looking at family trees! There are always surprises….

By Richard Dawkins …… about evolution written for the younger set. But it is great for any age. And lots of pictures.
At first I was hoping there would be a dog in the album, then I thought everyone should think of animals as a part of their families, and after that I felt ashamed for finding crawlies … well, creepy.
The ukulele gives you the look of a true kahuna!
I dared not look further than the crawlies.
I am ashamed to admit I have some creepies with 2 legs in my family. I guess we all do.
The ukulele goes with me in another blog I have. lol It was funny that I found a picture with it in.
Thanks for the visit to this blog.
