Blessings

From my dear cousin, Ann, to me


I love how God has blessed you

With deep desire for joy.




I love how He has blessed you

With heart that looks for beauty.



I love how He has blessed you

With talents of all sorts.



But first and most of all

I love that He has blessed me

With a cousin fair and lovely,

Who loves me without fail.



No other explanation

Beside the one I claim

Could ever offer evidence

To prove this all unplanned.



God gave us to each other

For reasons oft unseen.



But I love you all the more

Within that mystery.



So, with that in your mind,

Forget not my great love.



But first and most of all,

Forget not ever His.
