Loss Of A Sibling

To lose a sibling is to lose oneself,
For a part of me is gone…
And now I’m left to reminisce
As I try to carry on.

The thought of you not being here
Has torn my world apart…
Yet everyday I feel you near;
a blessing to my heart.

Your memory comforts me today
In ways I wish you knew…
But tears are falling from the pain
That comes from losing you.

I see your face in the morning sun
And in the moon at night…
I wonder how you’re feeling now,
I pray that you’re alright.

And one day when my time has come
To soar with eagles wings...
We’ll be joined forevermore
To laugh, to live, to sing.

Thank you Sister Pat for this so beautiful Memorial page for the day when we loss my big brother.

This was a wonderful surprise and you can be sure I was touched and tearing when you send this to me.

My mother saw this page and she told, This picture and page is just what Markku loved, the sea. This couldn't be more perfect. Thank you Pat and Blessings for your good heart. He spend many of his years at the sea, he sailed many countries and even till South America. One Island I do remember by name where he was an it was Santa Marta. I remember the pictures he show me when he was back home, and I remember how he showd one picture in special with pride, a picture of a beautiful native girl from Santa Marta. She was stunning with her hair going over her butt lol. Black hair with black eyes.  No wonder my bro fall in love with her *S*. But that ended and he created his own family in Sweden where he lived and he left behind him the most wonderful daughter Jeanette-Maria, who misses her daddy so very much, as I miss my brother and mom miss her son, as we all do.  I am writing an add here, today it is the 6th May and yesterday, and Markku was born 5.5.55 and if he were alive, he would have had his 50's birthday. Happy Birthday Markku!
