Brother Sister Love

Strangers many times at table, we are each at home. All but he are gone, his blue heaven eyes shining out at me in a world of new todays shedding history’s hair shirt recalling only what fits like a fine silk suit. Long ago children clinging to innocence. ©Kathryn McL. Collins June 22, 2004

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

'...blue heaven eyes,' '...history's hair shirt,' '...long ago children clinging to innocence,' incredible phrasing! masterful writing dear Kathy!! Best wishes, Keith :) (It's shameful this hasn't gotten more reviews.)
