Time And Tide
Saying Goodbye To My Brother
Time and tide wait for no man,
but I wish they would wait for me.
Then we'd sit in a boat, side by side,
and row on out to sea.
Brother Death Poems
Loss of Brother Poems
Siblings that pass away have special meaning to us. They are often close in age to us and their death may bring to mind our own mortality. Life is no longer taken for granted. Someone from our generation has passed away. If the death is unexpected, there may be loose ends in the relationship that have not been dealt with. It is common that a death of a sibling brings upon a search for meaning. We may ask ourselves if we are accomplishing the goals that we have set for ourselves.
