~~  Forever Young  ~~

Forever young is what they say, about those who, too soon, have gone away. A life so short and filled with love, now they live in heaven above. When I look back now at my cousin's life, and how she looked at life with eyes so wide. Nothing was gonna' stop her from living, she lived every moment she was given. A robust laughter so happy and real, she had dreams she had to fulfil. I can't help but smile when I think of her, and how she was so confident and sure. I'm glad she packed so much living into her time, she found everything she seeked to find. Some people didn't understand her anxious way, It was as if she knew she didn't have long to stay. I can see her so clearly in my thoughts, the way she laughed, the way she talked. A bundle of energy, a zest for life, she wouldn't want us to be sad or to cry. Forever young is how I'll remember her, charismatic, feisty and fun for sure. I know someday I will see her again, She's the Angel with the contagious grin. © Arona Sims ~ 2001 Please respect author copyright, do not use or copy poetry without obtaining permission from Arona Sims To contact Arona Sims please click  HERE
