Cyclical Dance of the Cousins

Dorrie Ann left Herman again.
It happens on a cyclical schedule.
October, January, April and July.
A quad-yearly thing.
We cousins take her in.
Knowing in a day or two Herman will show up.
Sweet, with candies and maybe flowers.
He will sweet talk her back home
because he is tired of frozen food.
Dorrie Ann could be annoying after the
second day but none of us know this because
Herman’s pattern is cyclical too.

Quoth Theraven August 1, 2019 at 11:09 PM Caren, That is a funny write, love it. I need to check up on my cousins. -Richard Caren Krutsinger August 2, 2019 at 12:11 AM You really do. It is about a relative who is much closer to a cousin but since I only have one sister I did not dare use the word sister.
