two
sleds
me and
my brothers
rest against my wall
every night the same debate
blah, blah, blah.... lost youth ... or... blah, blah, blah... forever young

Powerful write, Jim. My sister and I have similar debates. You have taken us from the "James Brothers" to James' Brothers. Pardon the pun -- just had to add my two cents. Hope you are doing well. Love, Carolyn

Forever young, yes. Fun to remember between brothers. A bond is felt there. Nice Fibonacci, interesting last line. Makes me smile. Thanks for sharing. Love and blessings, Caroline.

I love this poem. My brother and I always vowed we would never lament our growing older....but of course, we do! He still challenges me as if we were sibling rivals...that is something we never grow too old to do!! Loved this!
