Today was a wonderful time for me
For I found a site that all can see
Expressing my thoughts to be read
Instead of them spinning in my head

You can dream and hope and pray
Anything you want to openly say
Fantasies of which you may think
Or real feelings that make you sing

A hole-in-one, a 300 game or a grand slam
Makes your heart so full like a dam
Experiences in life teach you so much
You could never imagine this as such

Or share with others all that you feel
Sitting down for that delicious meal
Talking and expressing what is within you
Whether you are happy or whether you are blue

Poetry can come to some at the drop of a hat
And others have trouble giving a love pat
To pets or children or even adults
They end up their lives with no results

Share and love and give what you can do
You will be happy and content when you're through
In return you will be loved by others
Whether it is a parent, sisters or brothers

It is sad when they leave us and go to God
We just place them in freshly turned sod
The 4th of July is very special to me
For I lost my brother whose name was Eddie.

He was so young and full of always giving
I only wish that he was here on earth living
Enjoying the things we now have to do
But no he's gone and his life is through

But I know God is kind and watching over him
And all the others that have gone like Jim,
Peter, Michael, or whatever their names
Forever I will burn a candle and watch the flames

Remembering our loved ones forever and a day
Let us bend down for a minute and pray
Take care of us all and protect us as you can
We make mistakes but remember we are only human!

What a wonderful poem. Sorry about your loss. I'm sure he would be proud to call you his brother.
