A Character From My Life !

 A character in my life

W. Peter Sanci July 3o / 2007


My cousin Ben from New Jersery was my favourite characyer when I was growing up.
He was larger than life, and I think I was his favorite cousin in Canada.
He always came up once each year and we always had a great time together.
There was something about my cousin ben, he was a happy go lucky kind of guy.
He always drove up in a brand new caddilac.
He always had a smile on his face.
Every morning when everyone else was sound asleep, he and I would go on a special quest,
A quest for the freshest doughnuts in town,


Whether we were at the cottage or in he big city, it was always just the two of us going out on this special quest.
One of our favorite things to do was to eat of course.
One night at my nana’s house he challenged me to a soup eating contest.
Well we both ate 19 bowls of gramma’s best chicken soup and we weren’t even sick.
He’s gone now, my favorite cousin,
But I keep him in my thoughts and my prayers.
For I had so much fun with him it’s like he’s still alive in my heart.
