Love Poem: My Brother

Written by: Ralph Sergi

My Brother

A time will come when mortals cease to be
And leave a legacy of hidden dreams
For some a pleasure without strife
My brother fought the obstacles of life
But found time to bestow his joy on me
His elder strength and lust for life was there
To share his skill and crafts for those who cared
And I for one recall his love for me
His wife and sons his friends and family
Though basic in his intellect and thought
His wisdom far exceeded those who taught
Now he is gone to cast a glow so bright
The banner of his name will be unfurled
His soulful glow will lead a guiding light

In tribute to my brother, Rocco (Rocky) Sergi
who died on May 20, 2015
