Cousins

Italian Cousins January,2020

*Thanksgiving/My birthday started out a little rough, but talks with my Dad and Cousin helped a lot as well as some good friends…

I’m thankful for

Memories

Made with family

Birthdays celebrated

Holidays too

This year

My Holiday

Looked a little different

A lot of frustration

But encouraging phone calls

Work wonders.

Cousins

Reminders

Of who we are

Some of our first

Friends.

The one’s we can

Reach too

When it all seems

So Heavy on you.

Cousins who call

You to make sure

Your okay

To remind you

That its okay

Simply to want

To celebrate

Another birthday

With love and care.

Cousins

The one we turn

Too a reminder

Of the sunshine

Even when the days

Feel gray.
