The family is like a book,
The children are the leaves
The parents are the covers
Thta protective beauty gives.
At first the pages of the book
Are blank and purely fair,
But time soon writes its memories,
And paints its pictures there,
Love is the little golden clasp
That kindeth up the trust.
Oh, break it not, lest all the leaves
Shall scatter and be lost
