What happened to the family.....

What happened to the days where you say what you meant
and what about the quality time, and you planned how it would be spent
the hustle and bustle of the day was off-set by family time at home
eating dinner at the table, no T.V., no radio, no interruption by cell phones
I can honestly say I missed those days, and this is Thursday, so my grandparents are bringing that back
My Medea be cooking up a storm for all of the family, immediate, cousins, and even the neighbors that live in the back
She prepares dinner for whoever comes by, either myself, my uncle, or my grandfather bless the food
eat while laughing, and talking about silly stuff like we did back in the day, and it was all good
The family has left our spirit because of the distractions that are now taking control
I want back everything that satin, that bastard devil stole
I use to say that the devil could not steal anything that we did not allow him to take
how naive was i, what a big lie from my mouth, what a huge mistake
NOW, seeing that he is doing his job and destroying what God has put together
it is now up to us to take it back, and nurture it, and keep it going on forever
Well, i am about to go and get my grub on, and chill with all my folk
getting fat full, play a little dominoes, and watch T.V. then go back for sum mo... (so what, it rhymes,,,lol)
as i hug, and kiss, and shake everyone's hand, i will leave and get on the road
I look forward to another Thursday coming around, to get another family over load...
