' Family  Fortress ... '



( 3rd of  5 – From The Heritage Edition Poems)

(Eph. 3: 14, 15 / Acts 17: 26  / Matt. 13:  10–15)


The Family Fortress
Guards The Family's Jewels
It Keeps Out Hate's Presence
and Thieves and Fools

The Family Stands Strong
Against Every Attack
Facing Threats ‘Til Gone
Fighting Back To Back

The Family Gathers Round
In Shared-Commitment
Protects Its Ground
With Cared-Contentment

The Family Stands Tall
Withstands Intruder Floods
Life-Boats – One & All
… Same Flesh n' Blood

Family's Vital Function
Is Base-Camp Unit
Enforces Sanction
Foes Cannot Move-It

The Family Stronghold
Wrestles Every Enemy
It Will Not Fold
In Crashed Economy

The Family's Fortress
Armory Is Full
Each Member Watches
Precious Family Jewels …

(of)  Forgive, Faith, Forever-LOVE
Comfortable & Safe-Haven-Cove
Trust & Truth, Someone To Talk To
Gives & Gets What Each Thinks Is Due

Noisy, Nosy, May Get On Nerves
But Loyalty & Lift-Ups Never Swerves
Celebrates & Voices Family Values
Tries To Find Normal Thru All Bad News

Also Work & Playing Together
In Fair or Rude-Awakening Weather
Dependent & Also Independence
Remembers Deceased & Descendants

and If Sometimes Injured Silence
and Must Patrol In Self-Reliance
or If Its Too Quiet On The Homefront
Brave Soldier of Life Don't Give-Up !

Teenage Angst & Acceptance
Parents Must Recall Its Relevance
& Young & Old – Always Inclusion
To Sharp-Shoot Any Confusion

Real Peace & Parts of A Whole
Family-Belonging – Is Pure Gold
Sometimes Taken For Granted
but Family Is Best Place On Planet !

These Make Up A Family's Fortune
In Their Own Backyard-Hearts-Room
& Should Any Wolves Come To Their Door
They Get Chased Away Same As Before

The Family Fortress
Guards The Family's Jewels
It Keeps Out Hate's Presence
and Thieves and Fools

The Family Stands Strong
Against Every Attack
Facing Threats ‘Til Gone
Fighting Back To Back

… and Family Fortification
Is Safe As Peas In Pod
When The Fortress' Foundation
… Is The Almighty Living GOD
