Cousin

I see your
Birthday is
Here and your
Name conjures up
A memory of you at
Ten though I know you
Are all grown up but to me
You are always ten happy and
Gleeful running around Grandma’s
Yard climbing her trees playing on
Her yard swing rushing every
Where getting ready to go
To the park to swim and
I know you are now all
Grown up and proper
Dignified awfully
Respectable
Yet I see
You at
Ten.
