Family Ties

T’was at Dad's funeral, sad to say

That all family ties were last on display

With Reindeer and Snowmen, Christmas trees too,

In reds and greens, even in blue.

All tightly knotted, proud as can be

Our family ties were a sight to see

Time passed, knot's slipped, the ties became loose

And before long, they felt like a noose

But Father Time's helping, along with our Dad,

To relearn the knots, that made us so glad

So let's all hope, in the coming new year 

Knots will re-tighten, by all we hold dear

With love and full Windsor, we'll cherish the day 

When all the Family Ties are back on display.
