MY BROTHER
BY ALICE DONATELLI
I ALWAYS WANTED A BROTHER,
TO TELL MY TROUBLES TO,
A VERY SPECIAL BROTHER,
A BROTHER TRIED AND TRUE.
I ALWAYS WANTED A BROTHER,
TO TAKE MOST ANYWHERE,
MAYBE TO THE MOVIES,
OR TO THE COUNTY FAIR.
I ALWAYS WANTD A BROTHER,
TO HUG AND KISS GOODNIGHT,
A SPECIAL BABY BROTHER,
TO WATCH HIM GROW UP RIGHT.
BUT MY BABY BROTHER ,
WAS TAKEN FROM ME,
SOMEWHERE TO PARTS UNKNOWN,
IT LEFT ME BROKEN HEARTED,
BECAUSE NOW I WAS ALONE.
I SWORE SOMEDAY I WOULD FIND HIM,
BUT WHERE WAS I TO LOOK,
I NEEDED TO FIND MY BROTHER,
TO CLOSE THE FAMILY BOOK.
I PRAYED TO GOD MOST EVERY NIGHT,
TO ANSWER ONE SPECIAL PRAYER,
THAT WHEN I WOKE UP SOME MORNING,
HE'D BE STANDING THERE.
I THOUGHT MY SEARCH WAS OVER,
I FELT WEAKER EVERY DAY,
UNTIL THAT FAITHFUL EVENING,
THIS IS YOUR BROTHER,
I HEARD HIM SAY.
NOW MY SEARCH IS OVER,
I FOUND WHAT I ONCE LOVED,
AND NO ONE CAN TAKE HIM FROM ME,
EXCEPT THE LORD ABOVE.

"My Brother George" "My self Alice"
"Eveyones says we look alike."
"I think we do also"
"What do you think?"
