Best Friend Brother By Another Mother

A huge part of life whilst growng up
  large part of lfe, right from a bairn,
     i was fragile,like fine bone china tea cup
       but i put on a front and wouldn`t learn

         That i was in most ways differant from you
             looking back now,you had it so hard
                i probably had no idea, not a clue
                 the extent of things, that were on your cards

                    My friend,your life has been mapped out
                      your angel in the sky will be looking down
                        of how you you have coped and no doubt
                          the extent that you`ve dealt with not a frown

                              Life stays still for no man, neither woman
                                 you came through the test with flying colour
                                    you have a grandchild to prove, maybe more coming
                                       and now all good things, i hope will follow

                                        Wrote with heartfelt love inspiration

Sonsor                                  Dedicated to my best friend D.J.Allison
