A few days ago was my brother’s funeral
He was handsome, funny and profane
It’s been difficult to focus on books, so kindly bear with me
I’ll be back in 2018 to spend time with you…
You showed me a lot of things,
I learned a lot I didn’t know
But you forgot to teach me one last thing
How to let you go

Very sorry for your loss. I lost my oldest brother earlier this year. Wishing you healing and peace in this time of sorrow.
–Michael
Thank you Michael, very kind of you…
I’m so sorry to read your sad news. It would be difficult to bear at any time, but so much harder in this season, I suspect, with its relentless push for “good cheer.” The four-line poem you included is so very true. Hugs, V
The seasonal push is difficult…but once our boys are here things will seem better. Thanks for your kind words.
Oh, June, I am so sorry to hear about your brother. You must be hurting so much. My heart goes out to you.
