From Cousins to Nieces and Nephews
When young we have cousins; they’re second to none.
Then along come siblings’ each daughter and son.
A new wondrous time of our life has begun.
With our new family ties, new stories are spun.
We watch them together and having such fun,
and always there’s one who’s a son of a gun,
pulling pranks everywhere and on everyone.
Just leave them together all day in the sun.
They’ll be making up games before the day’s done.
In fields and back yards or in parks they will run.
Good times and loud laughter they never can shun.
Such close family ties between cousins are won.
But nephews and nieces that we love a ton
make each aunt and uncle a real lucky one!

Based on Laura Loo's Picture #2 as well as my own family experiences
