Her name
stared me in the face
Been
looking for some time,
Sent
E-mail into cyber-space
Hoped it
reached this cousin of mine
Happy
memories of Enfield Lock
Uncle,
Aunt, sisters three.
Our
families, solid as a rock
Part of
the Family Tree.
A garden
full of pretty blooms
Playing in
the summer sun,
The
innocence ended much too soon,
Competitions,
races, fun.
Our
parents now passed on
Some
siblings now estranged.
But some
love remains so strong
But oh,
how things have changed.
Sat here
with my fingers crossed tight,
Switched
on my P.C.
Daring to
believe she might
Consider
writing back to me.
And here
she is five miles away
The
present and the past.
The bond
still there from yesterday-
Hope it’s
here to last.
For my
cousin
