I never quite have met a man <br /> <br />like Brother Barron Smith. <br /> <br />I never knew a happier man <br /> <br />than Brother Barron Smith. <br /> <br />Never have I seen a gait <br />quite as loving, quite as straight <br />with such passion to elate <br /> <br />as Brother Barron Smith. <br /> <br />No one bore the light of life <br /> <br />like Brother Barron Smith. <br /> <br />Not despairing, nor in strife <br /> <br />was Brother Barron Smith. <br /> <br />He showed me how to go my way: <br />A beacon glowing night and day. <br />And, in my heart will always stay <br /> <br />my brother, Barron Smith. <br /> <br />He left his mark and mem'ry here, <br /> <br />did Brother Barron Smith: <br /> <br />A mem'ry I will hold most dear <br /> <br />of Brother Barron Smith. <br /> <br />He lifted me, and did his part <br />to give my soul a running start! <br />I hold a chamber in my heart <br /> <br />for Brother Barron Smith.<br /><br />Chris Schleier, Jr.<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-brother-barron-smith/
