    lil brother

     he had blond hair, brown eyes
    short but that was no suprise
    outside is where he liked to stay
    that is where he is to this day

    he and his brother were buddies, pals
    but when it happened she wrapped him in towels
    "it's my fault" his brother said
    as he placed his head in his hands

    he always wanted to fly
    it finely happened... he was lifted into the sky
    when we arrived t othe hospital
    the doctor told us it was fatal

    they could do no more
    and to think he was not yet four.

    my lil brother was killed in a freak go-cart accident 2 weeks before he turned 4 this was about 15 yrs ago. it was a very sad time for us. my other brother who was with him when it happened took it the hardest blamed himself then and still does to this day.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
