I will never forget the sound361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTpQOVtmIc
Of my baby brother’s cry—361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWkKkOrOFv
A fragile wail, a trembling plea,361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZbojrSbfi
That stirred the quiet night.
I would sit beside his tiny cot,361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimt5QFhWtO
My heart too young to understand,361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwkx75U8UY
Yet drawn to soothe his aching tears361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z5cV1evwM
With a gentle touch, a guiding hand.
Soft cheeks beneath my fingertips,361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dKEIeT0zn
A kiss upon his lips so small—361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkV7Gehc0k5
And in that moment, silence fell,361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnGy6x5Czc
As he watched me, trusting, whole.
I have loved him for as long361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenAGbnJikQ
As memory allows me to recall.361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97cfaJErBY
And when he looks at me that way,361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZbQiqKyGJ
I smile—for I have loved him most of all.
P.S. For my younger brother, Alex.361Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LyXPHsUlE
