Brotherly Love

by Jessica - Virgo

Words alone cannot express the love I have for you,
Our kinship is perpetual, because our love is true
When our most despiteful feelings turn against our love,
We turn to Jesus for his help and the Spirit from above
When I think of who you are, these three words come to mind
Wisdom, Endurance, Adventurous, and very hard to find
A brother isn't just someone who is a relative,
They help you with life's problems, and show you how to live
Our home movies are just the way that we show what we feel,
The story lines behind our films are what our minds reveal
Just saying,"I love you" at the closing of the day,
Reminds me how special you are in each and every way
From time to time I overlook your concern for me,
But I treasure that you help my mind to grow so spiritually
Each and every single night, I sit in bed and pray,
That angels of the enduring Lord watch over as you lay
I love you brother in a way that's more than I can make known,
Nothing compares to you or the love that you have shown

Reason for writing:

    Life...it is so compelling. So many things that are placed in your heart for countless reasons. This particular poem,"Brotherly Love", is a poem that was deep in my heart, that I have found and revealed to all of you. My brother plays a very special part in my life. His love for life starts in the morning when he awakes, and ends not only when he lays his head on his pillow, but stays with him during the night and in his dreams. I love my brother in more ways than there are grains of sand by the sea. So, in conclusion I'd like to dedicate this poem and my love for poetry to my dear brother.
