Those Moments Oceans Away
I live so far oceans away
can’t get up and visit when I want
just hear about all the joys and sorrows
weddings, births and demises
successes and failures
how I wish to live those moments
to lock forever in my sight
the day his baby girl was born
my brother’s face fill with delight
to help soak her tears
I wasn’t there for my sister
when her husband died
kept on calling she couldn’t talk
the time was to hug and hold
