The chill of the winter morning
Brought me thoughts of mourning
And I sat musing and moaning
My brother never lived this morning
...
Yesterday is a day away
The anxieties not given away
As I learned to do away
Not this day but every day.
...
Come to the lovely down
The golden sands are lien
Amidst lichen hills beset
Barren but sparkling yet.
...
The class muses as they gather
The like ones do flock together
They stroll through each verse
Unable to swallow many words
...
You can't contain me in
A cubicle you put me in
A citizen from high above
Has a right place on earth

A Brother's Lament
The chill of the winter morning
Brought me thoughts of mourning
And I sat musing and moaning
My brother never lived this morning
Was he just a dear brother?
I do not know how I gather
All I know that he’s so dear
And my heart says he’s so near
How I longed to see him in the east
Coming back from the Middle East
But for sure I’ll meet him at the feast
When He comes from the glorious east.
