Missing You Little Brother

It's been 7 years since my little brother said goodbye to us. Not a single day goes by that I don't think of him. A song, a joke, an expression on one of my childrens faces brings back memories. Somedays they are painful other days I smile and remember. Intricate little details embedded in clusters of events put together as footprints to remind me of how precious life really is.

I miss him, I miss him terribly......

So this is for you brother Elly, LOVE U!


Again I think of you
heart warm with memories.
I feel your absence
a silent void.
Consuming me slowly!

Humbly honored by your love
I remember like yesterday,
Childhood nostolgia
forever etched to my soul.
Why? You were too young to go!

My hero
the quite achiever.
Little brother,
from beginning to end
You were my inspiration.

Oh Yes! You are my angel!!
Pain and suffering
concealed with a smile.
A cross carried, without complaint
divine peace blessed within!

Your fate was sealed
yet you continued.
For us you continued
holding on unselfishly.
Family first, last and always!

Forever you are gone
I still feel your love.
Warming comfort
reminding me
We were two,now I am one
