This poem was dedicated to my late Brother: "William Fontain Richardson." You will always be with me my dear sweet Brother in my heart and thoughts.


Your spirit call upon me this morning


My thought's told me to go to the river


I stood on the bank


Gazing into the still water


Before me, were the rocks you use to sit on


Those were the days!


I miss your laughter so my sweet Brother


I lift my hand to wipe the tear that fell across my cheek


I felt the brush of your hand


I turned!


The earth stopped!


Bird's were chirping


Accompanying a beautiful melody


The river was still


Your eyes sparkle with radiance


I run to embrace you


Your wings caress me


You ask me to dance


I held your hand


We soared above the floor of the river


I felt a rapture


A deep warmth of tranquility


You whispered


"I'll always be close by"


A kiss brushed against my cheek


There I was, standing on the bank of the river


Alone!


Knowing, my dear Brothers sweet breath was resting in Heaven


Watching over me

This write brought to mind my sweet old neighbor Bonnie May who writes on the den. She lost her brother by his being shot in the back in the woods. Never found his killer, in Colo. You might find something in common with her with her writes about her brother too. He will always be missed, I have a brother 7 years older than I living in Ohio and would miss him too if he was not here on earth.
Give Bonnie's site a try, it will be well worth the effort.
