About the Poem

This poem was written in dedication to my brother who was tragically killed in an accident while on vacation with his girlfriend in Antigua. I was proud to read it at his Memorial Service on May 14, 1999. Sadly he was only 33 years old and will be deeply missed by many.

Goodbye, My Brother

by Lisa

My brother Greg an awesome guy,
I don't know why you had to die.
You were so cute as a little boy,
You smiled at us and brought us joy.

Even though we had our little fights,
Over silly things like phone lines and wiring lights,
I never wanted to be a pest,
I needed your skills, cause you're the best.

I'm glad those times, were only a few,
It was hard for me to argue with you,
But that's just me, as you are you,
And in the end you always came through.

This is Lanesville where you are from,
We all are here with Deb and Mom,
Our hearts are broken, as you know,
We really can't bear to let you go.

Sometimes you were so crazy and loony,
Especially with the friends who call you "Cooney",
I know that everyone here will agree with me,
That the Lanesville Crew is the best there could ever be.

We wish so much that you were here,
Or just down "The Cove" havin' a beer.
It's happy thoughts that will get us through,
Like all the fun we shared with you.

And now my poem will come to an end,
Until the day we meet again,
I pray that you are now at peace.
Goodbye Greg With Love From Lis

Piotr

Hello, Am only 15 and your poem is realy nice and I got a brother who is one year older then me and I can't stand a mind of losing him so if you lost a brother I fell bad for you and keep up with those nice poems start to write happy stuff to take that bad memory away!

Letty

I can tell that it was truly written from the heart. Pain, such as the loss of a brother is. I cannot describe. PAINFUL. No other feeling like it in the world. I, too, lost my brother to cancer 6 months ago. When he was first diagnosed, I wrote a poem (an angry poem), but I'm trying to build up my courage to enter it anywhere. Maybe I'll post it in here. My deepest sympathy.

Ashley

I thought this was one of the best poems that i have ever read. Ireally liked it alot.

Only Me

That was a really good poem. My little brother died about nine years ago, but i still miss him alot.

kerry

im 14 and i thought this poem was great and many other people thought so too! i lost my grandad in 2005 and was close to him. i have two older brothers who are the best and if i ever lost any of them i would have to go too, life wouldnt be worth living otherwise and they are great to me and my sisters, one of them ecspecially is like my dad who i dont no and i thsnk all that he has done for me. your poems are great and keep them up! kerry xoxoxoxo

Your poem was really good and very touching. My brother died when he was 3 yeras old and even though i didnt get to know him sometimes i think of how life would be if he was still alive. I look at his picture day and night and everytime i do i feel like crying. All of my friends have brothers and they always talk about the fun that they have with them and i cant be around people when they talk about their brothers.

monica

JUDY

I had 3 brother and 1 sister, my mother is 85, my brother's are my very best friend's and my hero's. My sister is 7 year's older than me. She married when I was nine years old. My brother took care of me threw all my teenage year's while my mother and dad work. We lost our father in 1994, that was end of my life, I thought. Time goes by but dad nerver really left me, because I can still see him and feel him around me. Now it is 2005, this year I lost my baby brother Feb. 15th, he just went to bed and has a heat attact, I lost my brother Doug 5 monts later, he just fell over with a blood clot. Your poem remains me of them. Thank You

Thank You, Shawn

A. on April 17, 2003. he was only 23 years old. he got hit by a drunk driver while walking down the road early in the morning after his girlfriend kicked him out of his house. he was an awesome brother and always looked out for his brothers and sisters. i will never forget when i heard the news he was gone. my heart dropped to the bottom of my stomach. to this day i am still wishing the news wasn't true and i could hold my brother in my arms and tell him how much i love him. my daughter's 2 and a half right now. i will always tell her of her uncle. good job on the poem it was awesome and very touching
