For My Brother Six Years On Poem by Gaia Rose

It’s been six years today, God took you from this land,
He held you in his arms for no longer you could stand.
And though I may not see you, I feel you every day,
You’re still so very much a part of life in lots of ways...

You’re a song on the radio; you’re the wind in my hair,
When I see a fireman, I see you standing there,
You’re the singing of the birds, and the dew drops on the trees,
On a hot summers day you’re the gentle blowing breeze,

You’re a pink and yellow sunset when you cannot help but stare,
These are just some of the things that let me know your there.
But most of all I see you in my children while they play,
I watch them and remember how we used to play that way,

Their arguments, their laughter, the same as you and me!
Memories I’ll treasure for all eternity.
So know I think about you even though we are apart,
God may have you in his arms, but I have you in my heart....
