Being himself~

A follow-up to my previous post...

What's behind the smile? This was a unique moment in a long time between my brother and I; as we make plans to continue our travels; Ricky begins to pour his heart out sharing personal thoughts I seldom if ever hear my brother talk about...I did not have a camera or anyone close by to capture the moment. I took my phone, snapped a photo of our early morning breakfast time. The sun was just barely coming up changing all colors through the window by which we had our place lighting up Ricky's face by now almost unrecognizable; saddened by recent events, he had a hard time holding back some tears...at this moment he was not the self assured cowboy he normally is but a younger brother seeking a listening ear to his dilemma. Pieces of April... a hug was in order; people at the restaurant didn't seem to mind; it was almost as if everyone understood this was a brother to brother moment...

 

 

A few day later; after spending time alone and doing what he enjoys most; Ricky's smile is back~

 

 

Little wonder I care as much for my brother~

April gave us springtime

And the promise of the flowers

And the feeling that we both shared

And the love that we called ours

 

 

We knew no time for sadness

That's a road we each had crossed

We were living a time meant for us

And even when it would rain we would laugh it off

 

 

I've got pieces of April

I keep them in a memory bouquet

I've got pieces of April

It's a morning in May

 

 

We stood on the crest of summer

Beneath an oak that blossomed green

Feeling as I did in April

Not really knowing what it means

But it must be then that you stand beside me

Now to make me feel this way

Just as I did in April

But it's a morning in May

 

 

I've got pieces of April

I keep them in a memory bouquet

I've got pieces of April

But it's a morning in May

I've got pieces of April

I keep them in a memory bouquet

I've got pieces of April

It's a morning in May

It's a morning, it's a morning in May

Just a morning, just a morning, just a morning

Morning in May, it's a morning in May

Just, just a morning, a morning in May, a morning in May
