Different DaysI’m sitting in the sunshine
While my brother shovels snow.
Here the daffodils are blooming;
His still have a ways to go.

It’s the norm for Colorado,
As his shovel...

Brother Of Our SoulsBorn December 5, 1961,
blonde cherubic, lips of rose buds,
eyes of the bluest baby innocence.
Remember the 1960's brother,
Massapequa proud, Long Island.
Our Cedar Street,
lined once with what now are
vintage Chevys, Buicks,
our lime-green Rambler.
1964-65 World's Fair in Queens

Bonds Unbroken: Sibling LoveIn childhood days of laughter and play,
Side by side, we'd dance and sway.
Siblings bound by love so true,
Together in all that we'd pursue.
Through schoolyard antics and homework woes,
We'd face each challenge, our bond still grows.
Hand...

It captures a moment from long ago…when we were all quite small.

Shadows' WhispersIn the dance of shadows, secrets unfold,
A controversial tale, daring and bold.
A shadow's embrace, a silent connection,
Whispers of obsession, a hidden reflection.
Stalking in rhythm, a dubious affair,
In the moonlit glow, temptation's snare.
Priceless moments, or a...

CowboysMy brother and I shared a bedroom
With cowboys on every wall.
Though we’re three years apart
Our connection did start
While our baby bro slept down the hall.
My memories don’t have much info
Of the time that we spent...

fine and funny
so excited
to see you

Like GodI looked up to you
like if you were God
always wishing to connect
always wishing for your love
walking alone on the streets
I learned how to cope
