My Father is the earth

from which I came from

Steady and strong he supports me 

My Mother is the water

that nurtures my heart

she is always there if not always seen

My Sisters are flowers 

bringing joy into my life

beautiful and sweet they brighten everything

My brother is fire

that brightly burns with love

protecting his country and warming his family

My family is life. 

supporting, nurturing, brightening, and burning with love
