3 Brothers
A photo of 3 brothers in a different time
in more innocent and carefree days
3 brothers only children then
before they went their separate ways
A photo of 3 brothers today after life has interfered
The same 3 brothers only in this photo their youth as disappeared.
3 brothers who don’t have much in common now
who don’t often share with one another
who still understand the importance
of what it is to be a brother…
3 brothers who don’t see each other often
who have never been birds of a feather
who, realizing life is short,
decide to get together…
3 brothers come together to reminisce
each glad the others came
each knowing how, although they’re different,
they’re still a little bit the same.
3 brothers who realize their importance
in the grand design…
Who know even though they’ve grown apart
their roots are intertwined.
3 brothers who understand they’re branches all grow
from the same majestic family tree
Who are happy knowing wherever life takes them
3 brothers they will always be
