That Monday Night
As brothers do
We argued at times
But on that Monday night
To the heavens you climbed
You ran ahead
But you could run very fast
I was left behind
Your life was cast
To grow together
Was taken from us
For much i would have said
In brotherly discuss
First i would say
I loved you so dear
I have just turned 49
And i wish you were here
A little brother
Needs a big one to follow
For many years after
My life was so hollow
The games we played
Football and others
Its the way it should have been
For us Fraser brothers
So Billy my brother
Boom, Boom to thee
I see you fly through the stars
As you look down over me
I only knew you
Seven little years
And every time i think of you
It brings me to tears
So next time you fly over
I have words to say
There in a loving poem
From my heart their displayed
