    Good grief, one soldier told another
      Our foe’s no different than our brothers

    Oh, yes he is, the other retorted
      The cause he fights for is distorted
 
    I beg to differ, countered soldier the

Brother Keven
It is cool having a brother who could pass for a famous Hollywood actor. He never did take his good looks to Hollywood and I'm sure his wife is glad of it.
Keven is fun to hang out with, his smile and laugh say as much, just ask his son.
Keven is notorious for telling a

Brotherly Love

Who else? 
Who else would care for you my brother, if not out of love we care for each other.
Who else would it be?
An old friend?
Or someone I fail to see.
Is it someone who knocked on your door?
Or is it an x lover that you once knew before?

Do you remember how we grew up together?
Do

Brotherly Love

Biden went to the Middle East
For a cous-cous sheep-eyeball feast
Relations were strained
Raisi explained,
"That Red button summons a priest"

Premium MemberBrotherly Love

Everyone had a sister or brother
The forever faithful friend
Who shares your heart and blood
Your hopes and dreams
Even your thoughts!
Except me

There would be no sibling for me
No familial relation to hold
To follow around or feel
Tagging at my barefoot heals

There would never be the sounds
Of laughter and love
Beneath cotton sheets
Covering smiles and giggles 
From two who were

I have one life to live, he said
For which my soul is driven
No lesser man can stay in bed
For naught, and be forgiven

"But what of those, who living hard
Should beg, and mercy find
Should those who draw the losing card
Be forced to stay behind? "

The business man, can do much more
Then meddle by his meat
The progress

Thank God I Have a Brother

Thank God I have a Brother!
He fixes up the truck,
I sometimes give him money,
Whenever he gets stuck.

(Not just for up and fixin’
The truck – not what I mean
‘f I tried, he wouldn’t take it)
It’s just that times ‘re lean.

His poor bald head works harder,
Than any I have known!
For he rides an old lawnmower,
And not a

Brotherly Love

I have this Brother, you may or may not
know,
Who holds onto disappointment & hurt 
and refuses to let go,
What he doesn't seem to understand, is
not everyone thinks like his mind,
And to be different is wonderful for we're all
one of a kind,
I'm not here to sell my actions or my point
of view,
But I do expect people

Goodbye Brotherly Love

Life is a must 
But who can you trust
Before we turn back
Dust into dust

These days being more
Than wish upon a star
In this nightmarish scene
We've become who we are

I used to laugh at the circumstance
Now wonder what's up with that
Packed its bags then up and left
Making brotherly love a thing of the past

When arguments
Are no more

Where Is the Brotherly Love

Bombs are falling.
Death is calling.
Where is the brotherly love?

Why do you maim and kill?
Have you had your fill?
Where is your brotherly love?

Where is the mercy of man
for the children of the land?
Where is his brotherly love?

Take the oil and take the soil.
Do their bidding.
Where is their brotherly love?

You’re so tough.
Haven’t you had enough?
Where is your

Brotherly Love

Roses are red Violets are blue
Sugar is sweet and so are you.
Your intelligent wording is unique
I write with you as your Psyduck
I'm a nerd with perfect words and so are you. 
your nerdy book awaits to be written by muah and only muah
Make life less complicated for me
I promise you I'll always love you
Your company

Brotherly Love

It's hard to imagine
There was ever a time
When we were strangers

Friends?
Not for two spirits who share 
The affinity, admiration and respect
That we share 

Brotherhood!
That's what defines us
Whether it's giving love through tough times
Or giving tough love

A shoulder to lean on
Or shouldering the weight 
When the load is too heavy to carry alone

Do we always see

Operation Brotherly Love

Another tragedy arrived today,
loved ones and homes swept away.
We ask why but get no answer,
a given panic like the Signature of Cancer.
All is at peace then here it is,
finding that Mother Nature lives.
Then comes the calm after the storm,
so much gone, so many lives torn.
Tragic moments never do cease,
perhaps it is for love to increase.
Shamefully

Brotherly Love

That Jonah, the one in the whale, as from God he tried to run
Being tossed from his sail he pretty much thought he was done
Finally after three long days the whale spit him towards shore
And no matter what anyone says this is what happened for sure

Now he had a three day trip ahead, Johan made
