Give to barrows, trays, and pans Grace and glimmer of romance; Bring the moonlight into noon Hid in gleaming piles of stone; On the city's paved street Plant gardens lined with lilacs sweet; Let spouting fountains cool the air, Singing in the sun-baked square; Let statue, picture, park, and hall, Ballad, flag, and festival, The past restore, the day adorn, And make to-morrow a new morn. So shall the drudge in dusty frock Spy behind the city clock Retinues of airy kings, Skirts of angels, starry wings, His fathers shining in bright fables, His children fed at heavenly tables. 'T is the privilege of Art Thus to play its cheerful part, Man on earth to acclimate, And bend the exile to his fate, And, moulded of one element With the days and firmament, Teach him on these as stairs to climb, And live on even terms with Time; Whilst upper life the slender rill Of human sense doth overfill.
the bond of brotherhood is so sacred, I wish you and family condolences. it sounds like your brother was one of your best friends and a really great person.
FB, I bet you were a great brother to him through that ordeal and somehow, even in the worst stretches, you were making it easier for him. Really sorry for your loss.
If i lost either of my brothers, id be a trainwreck..i cant even imagine what your going through, my deepest condolences to you and your family.
Sorry to hear about your loss. This is really tough to go through. Hope you find solace in your family.
really sorry to hear, man. i've yet to lose a parent, sibling, or friend, and have no idea how i will cope with it when it happens. easily my biggest fears, way above even my own mortality. must be incomprehensibly hard to deal with, and my heartfelt sympathies and prayers go out to you.
