The author's comments:
This piece is very special to me. It shows how much influence my whole family, not just my immediate family, has had on my life. I hoped to show you how important family is to me. I wouldn’t be able to live without any of these people I mention. I love this whole poem, as a whole, it shows how much I truly love my family. I need work with my punctuation. I don’t really know how to do that. It confuses me when it’s a poem.
