Cousin Time

Listen to poem:

Cousin Time

So happy is a home where cousins meet;
their smiles and laughter make us feel upbeat,
while aunts and uncles know that life's complete 
to watch their children share their love so sweet.
Like brothers, sisters, cousins are so neat;
they play for hours and later they retreat
to their own homes, but know they will repeat
that special time again when cousins meet.

Miraj Raha Date: 5/24/2016 10:43:00 AM very well crafted poem,Sandra ma'am.I remember in my childhood, all my cousins used to come and we had so much fun altogether. I miss those golden years. Login to Reply Sandra Haight Date: 5/25/2016 7:47:00 PM Yes, Miraj, I remember those times with cousins and miss them too. It is not quite the same these days...it seems that families do not get together the same way like the old days. Thank you for your visit and nice comment. Sandra
