August 8 Esteemed Date

August 8, Esteemed Date
My brother the reflective other,
Thoughtful father, contemplative friend,
Helpful mend, curative treasure,
Michelle is Rob's God send,
Lucas his venture, a raison d'être,
My bro' bucks the trend,
One of a kind measure, to whom we're indentured,
So humble, Rob's beneath ground,
Big heart, quick start, smart ardor,
Laughing at life, he'll be among the standing at the end,
Rob's a Hall o' Famer but he'll decline the corridor,
Not one for honor, another's honor Rob would rather tend!
