Memories Beautiful

Lovely was the dawn I met you, Brother Shining sun on North Carolina morn So many years had come without our knowing Until the day we rode and saw for first Your eyes reflected innocence of wonder At seeing your new sister at a glance Many years passed by like flowing rivers You were 18. I only 10 times new Moments cherished, precious ore From deep mined mountains Dad is proud to see his fledglings quickly bond Such fondness between people Bred in different wombs A miracle of future, played out then And now at 68, I think about the day The day my father found my missing part We spit our lives our quickly for the loving share Memories beautiful that faded with the dusk Quiet is this morn I feel your spirit Moving cross the pages of my mind The many years we had were treasured journeys Memories beautiful that will not fade in death. 9/23/2021
