The Dead!


I pity my younger brother died
first, at his prime youth
after living a stormy life
in a world that he saw as too wild!

I love my mother, died
before her time was right
seeing less of a loving company
in a world that she saw as too cold!

I respect my father, died
living a full fourscore years
enjoying with joy both good and evil
in a world which the victor is the bold!
