This photo really struck me as one of the most beautiful, perfect pictures of friendship I've ever seen. As a tribute to our two favourite guys, I just wrote this poem. Enjoy....



Brother

They say we find our family
Not only in our blood but
In our hearts, in our bones
In our very souls...

It's when we suddenly find ourselves
Recognizing a stranger as a kindred spirit
Who must have been
In ancient times so long forgotten
That courageous warrior at our side
The most loyal of companions on the hardest road
Our deepest friend in the darkest hours
Who knew without speaking
That he would always be there
In that life or the next...

Welcome home, my brother

61soso - You are a true poet. What beautiful words you've written! I think you have captured the very essence of David's and Michael's relationship, and reminded me of some very close and enduring relationships of my own.
Thank you for writing this and for sharing it with us!

Thank you very much Pattieann, for your nice comments. It brings me such a sense of pleasure and satisfaction when words I've written resonate with others (not just my family!). It really validates what I believe in. Thank you!
