“My cousin died this week

And she was 93,” she so informed.

“Just one year older than I am.”

“Don’t eat too much ham on Easter, “

I kidded.

“I want to eat candy and lots of it,”

she announced and smiled.

I laughed out loud, thinking

“Why not?”

Her cousin can’t anymore.

“Did you know,” she said

“Candy takes away wrinkles.

Just look at the children and you’ll see!”
