Today would have been my brother’s 49th birthday.
This is a quiet little poem for him. I’ve written others that may be shared sometime. And I will probably write more.
On my grandparents’ sailboat, in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico, in the mid-70s
On the Bolivar Peninsula in the late 90s
Now You Know
Now you know the secrets of sunsets and sand dollars
Now you know the recipe for rainy days and rainbows
Now you know the why of the wind and its whispers
And now you know how much love I had for you in my heart
A longer reminiscence about my brother and our magical childhood at the beach in Southeast Texas can be found here.
Those rich memories are carried by so many people. Our boys loved visiting you and Steve SO much!!!
Thank you, I’m so glad we’ve connected via our memories.
Sad but beautiful the love is evident. Beautiful
Thank you so much. I have visited your blog and find your outlook very interesting and stimulating. I’m following you now and am very glad we connected.
Aww thank you so much Kimberly. I love yours too. It’s very encouraging and interesting. I hope we stay connected 😊😊
