Forty-eight years and counting, being close to my Mom's sister,
Aunt Nina.
Through the years, a wonderful friend and companion, shared
memories will always be treasured.
Being so far apart now, it's difficult to get together, and I
miss her very much.
Always ready for adventure, gullible, and heroic, so many
good times we've shared will never be forgotten.
Having an Aunt Nina has been a wonderful experience for our
family through the years.
When we get together, we always have a blast - well except for
the times when we have to attend family funerals.
Even then, we buckle up, support each other, and talk quietly
respectful of whomever has passed on, always giving the
respect and dignity to the ones we loved so dearly.
One poem could never do her justice, our lives together have encompassed so much that we'd have to write at least a million
books.
Thinking of her often, sometimes with tears, because I miss
her so much.
Our lives have intertwined for forty-eight years, I thank God,
my Mom had such a great family, much like ours is now.
Only wish Mom could've enjoyed her more in later years, I'm
sure she would have as much as I did.
One thing for sure, my life has been enriched beyond compare
and I hope this poem will help me say how much I appreciate
Aunt Nonnie, especially today, her birthday.
Will always love you Aunt Nonnie! !
