You were still my brother
no matter what you did
...

True love is found in a special place
that is sometimes hard to find.
...

I hear the songs of yesterday
when love was new.
...

'Dad? '

'Yes son, what is it? '
...

I was not the perfect father
but you became great adults
...

I'll love you 'til tomorrow
plus another day.
...

I miss the scent
of lavender and lace.
...

I pray that I never have to take
that which is not mine to take.
...

Her scent
still lingers.
...

I sit here
in my waiting place
...

When you were laid to rest
no one knew your name.
...

I think about her when awake
and dream when I'm asleep.
...

She was invited to the dance
he was not.
...

She was a throw away child
unclaimed.
...

I can live without her
time has proven that.
...

Once upon a time
long ago
...

The disappearing yesterdays fade
like the early morning mist
...

Only silence was spoken
they didn't need to say a word.
...

Sitting on Pappa's knee
it's a nice place to be
...

I saw her standing on a rainbow
dancing on moonbeams.
