Write a poem about an old tree and the secrets it holds.

Family Tree

One swab, 

One swab was all it took

To reveal the secrets of the family tree

Daniel begot Michael and Michelle with Sarah

But he also begot Nicole and Nina with Mercedes

One state over





One swab, 

One swab was all it took

To reveal the secrets of the family tree

Michael begot Rickelle and Ricky with Stacy

But he also begot Rita, put up for adoption





One swab,

One swab was all it took to reveal

The secrets of the family tree

Turns out Rita is the sister of 

Rickelle, her very own mother

With Michael her grandfather, 

her very own father,

Too
