My beloved cousin,
Kimberly, just passed
away. Last Thursday,
the Lord called her
home.
Kim was my favorite
cousin. She was the
same age as me,
and we used to
spend many days
with eachother
when we were kids.
My friend, Tina, used
to give me surprise
birthday parties, and
Kim was always there
early helping out and
taking care of
whatever needed
to be done.
We took swimming
lessons, and at the
last day received
our certificates.
We were so happy,
and relieved.
She was in my
wedding, and I
I got to see her a
couple weeks ago.
We had a nice visit.
She still had the
most beautiful smile
that I remembered.
Kimberly...
you were kind
you were smart
you were caring
you were gracious
you were everything
a woman should be.
you are a part of me
now and forever.
As I am writing this,
a couple of turkeys
have appeared and
are playing side
Yes, me and Kim,
a couple of turkeys
playing side
