A Twin in Heaven

”A Twin in Heaven” 

Exactly 12 days short
of two weeks, and 
thoughts of losing
you fails to escape me.

Debating if perhaps-
all the while,
a test solely for me?!

A test-
proving if my strength
can not emerge
to weak?!

A test-
to leave behind
the visual effects
of your flesh that night
in hopes it no longer 
torments me?!

Or…

A test-
to see who’s reaching
the Pearly Gates first…
you or me?!

Sigh…(Crying)

Well twin—41 years,
2 months and 12 days…
you finally surpassed me.

My only request…

is for you to save a spot in line for me.

Gary Radice Date: 5/30/2025 12:21:00 AM Your lovely tribute to your late twin brother made me stop in my tracks this morning. I sat in silence for a few minutes and tried to put myself in your position. My eyes welled up. Beautifully written. So poignant and real. George lives on within the words of your free verse. Cheers - Gary

Kim Rodrigues Date: 4/4/2025 10:19:00 AM First of all my heart hurts for you. My mom’s twin died two years before her and mom went much sooner than I thought she would. My dad and his twin still here, and his twin’s wife. The pearly gates will be opened one day so we can seek first the Lord and then celebrate forever with all our loved ones and the saints. Hugs xx
