Brother’s Reflections
May 9, 2021
Seems like yesterday
We heard that last soft breath
Free from the struggle
Nothing left to say
So many memories streaming through my heart
Jerky and cots in the muddy green truck
Thinking you were always so tall
Trout sizzling in the old black skillet
Hearing calls for Kilroy and let the fire fall.
Learning how to catch, to block and throw from the ear
Livin’ on Creekside, hiking through the Mendocino fog
Camp after camp, hearing the nonstop cheers
Watching the father, the uncle the proud grandad
Hearing your laughter in the Los Oso breeze,
Sharing stories of days gone by andgood times we had.
Miss you brother.
