Cousin

It has been awhile,
Since we last met,
A wedding?
A funeral?
I forget.
Whatever the case,
How are you?
Tell me about,
Everything that you do.

The family resemblance,
Is oh so clear.
And your mannerisms,
Familiar and dear.
But you live there,
and I live here;
So maybe we’ll do this again,
Next year.
