Poetic Verses

Good bye My Brother

The tear for my father ‘'s pass hardly had time to dry
As again my eyes did well up as I once more I had to cry
As grief, can be something that can make one certainly shudder
It pained so much to know that I have lost my brother

One who had such a very calm and yet carefree spirit
And such a very good sense of humor to add to it
Much older he was but of him I had such great admiration
Nothing seem to rattle him not could phase that type of momentum

Watching at times as he spent such a very long stretch
As he sat at his drawing board as he worked on a sketch
In my little mind, it seems that he was taking like an eternity
But was amazed at the finished product which was a beauty

Sometime for a long time of food his body he will starve
As he will sit there and on a piece of wood will start to carve
Watching there is silence and then my mouth would gape
As the work began to take sometimes a familiar shape

Those moments when my eyes certainly beam with such great pride
As the kite, you made in that air will majestically glide
But what too filled my little heart then with such delight
The shape was always different from the others in sight

As I grow and you demonstrated your powers of versatility
Adding music to your bank of talents this you did so easily
But your conversation always make one to dig deep
So now I am a grown man they make me think on my feet
How I always thing of the time when we had that ferocious bull
I never knew what you did but it obeyed you in full
Nobody could even venture into its line of vision or space
And that show of aggression would register on its face

There is no doubt that I could go down memory lane
Those moments will bring some joy and even pain
How it hurts very deeply to know that you are gone
But certainly, those fond memories will certainly live on
