I Ask My Cousin

© by Bud Lemire on Jan 25, 2026

I ask my Cousin, she knows all about it

She's researched it well, and has some great wit

I usually don't research, unless it's something I like

Like genealogy, or what looks great on my bike

She knows things, with business, life, and more

I'm lucky to remember, what to get at the store

She likes to be informed, and up to date

I try to be on time, just so I'm not late

I ask my Cousin, what's happening out there

She has her sources, and she's quite aware

For me, I just wonder, inside my mind

Always something happening, is what I find

Hey Cousin, what do you know

Have you looked out, to see a rainbow

She tends to pick up, on all the news

Me, I'm uninformed, but that's what I choose

There's enough to know out there, but what is true

Too much fake news all over, so what can I do

My Cousin lives it, she knows the truth is happening when it does

I always ask my Cousin, she knows what is and what was

My Cousin would be the first to tell you that she doesn't know

everything. One thing for sure, she likes to keep up on the

latest news and what is happening locally and in the world.

Many times it effects us in so many ways. She keeps me

posted on the important things that effect me as well.

Thank you Cousin, for the answers I don't look for myself.
