Big Brother Me? Poem by David Harris

Big Brother Me?

Rating: 5.0


I have a friend far across the sea.
We have never met,
but she is never far away.
Our hands have never touched,
but our hearts have,
through our words
that bring comfort and console.

We are not related,
but a big brother she thinks I am.
She is always writing
about this distant friend.
So now is my chance
to write one for her.
I hope when she reads it
she will get a silly grin.

Awe David thanks....your are my big brother figure.....almost the same age as my real oldest brother and I never knew him well even to this day....he was long gone and in the military for years then married and on with his own busy life....so yes I kind of think of you that way....sharing your stories with me and helping me through lots of things....just seems like I'm talking to an old friend....my brother I never knew........Hugs my big brother: O)
