Rooted in the
lowlands
close by the
Baltic Sea,
a family now
transplanted
traced through
history.
Their values and
their stories
passed on through
the years,
memories and
photos
often peppered
with their tears.
Rubbing shoulders
with the figures
in the events of
history's pages,
each generation
wrote a chapter
and passed it
through the ages.
Yet, by time and
circumstance,
dreams and plans
were foiled,
this remnant of a
family
left their native
soil,
To write another
chapter
with what could
not be lost,
the treasures of a
heritage,
true riches beyond
cost.
