My Brother: <br />in my darkest hour, <br />thou were there to shine light, <br />when I had fallen, <br />with firm grasp, <br />thou hast raised my calling. <br /> <br />My Brother: <br />When I had sunk in deep gloom, <br />thou was there with words, <br />when silent voice cried, <br />your reach did extend, <br />changing all the lies. <br /> <br />My Brother: <br />When iniquity filled with shame, <br />thou took my place, <br />sacrificed thy conceit, <br />bestowed thine honour, <br />washing dirt from upon thy feet. <br /> <br />My Brother: <br />How shalt thy repay, <br />such unpardonable debt that thine owes, <br />a blood's bath smothered <br />my Brother's love shown, <br />in gratitude, I humbly, acknowledge my Brother. <br /> <br />15-10-06 GJW<br /><br />Geoff Warden<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sacred-oath-of-a-brother/
