Has anyone
seen my brother?
He was just here the other day
perhaps he is just sleeping
in the ruins of some city
so far away...

Has anyone
seen my sister?
a lovely country song
neither one said good by before leaving
or they would be gone
just left us alone and grieving..

Has anyone seen my brother
or my sister too?
They were here the other day
but they can no longer breathe here
I keep reaching for their hands
to tell them I can't really either...

They won't be back
this I know
I allowed them today in my mind
the past is healing so slow
the love I have in kind
suddenly came back today...

My dear, dear Ken..Very deep grieving and sadness. It is wrapped in our soul and refuse to let go. But that is what love is..You might like to get pushed away yet it stays.. Because it is love...
no respect for time and or space..it just is....

I know how you feel..take care and just keep writing them for us to share...it is cathartic, and relieving..

Love,
