Little Brother

Little brother your sweet.
You made our family complete.
A surprise from the start,
You quickly filled my heart.

Watching you learn how to clap your hands,
And take your very first step.
To playing football and riding dirt bikes,
Live your life with no regrets.

A sweet spirit you have,
Especially when I've been sad.
Cards made to help encourage.
Your life filled with courage.

Uncertainties you've faced
at a young age.
Strength found in each step,
Throughout these days.

Oh, little brother,
Why'd you grow up so fast?
Where's the cheesy smiles,
So often seen in the past?

I guess it's time to accept,
That your getting older.
Especially now that you like,
To throw me over you shoulder.

You are strong and handsome,
And a world of opportunity awaits you.
Keep your goals straight,
And God in the right place,
And he will help you get through.
