Family First

My family has always been there
from the day that I was born
through every single complication
and every single reward

As I have grown
and my childish ways have matured
I see what we have been through
and everything we have endured

From the birth of all my siblings
and a travel around the country
we always seem to bounce back
sort of like a bungee

I love my family so much
to all the ends of the earth
from Sydney, to Darwin
and all the way to Perth
