This poem is a simply beautiful tribute to your brother. The photo is so charming and the poem is very touching. Im so glad I got to get this very loving glimpse at your brother. Very nice work and short but sweet author's note is perfect

I can't begin to imagine what life is like without one's life partner at one's side. The loneliness of that. Relationships can be hard work, the love so strong that whatever it takes is worth the struggle, some people can't be replaced. beautifully written Belinda, bless you, may God's compassion be with you, blessings Roy

AS I've often said, when it comes to poetry, I wouldn't know a sonnet from sorbet. But even a simple mind like can be touched by meaningful words straight from the heart. Thanks for sharing.

Good rhyming and well-chosen words to describe how much you miss your brother. Both of my brothers have passed away, and I know how you feel. thankful for the hope of seeing them again in eternity.

This touching, well-written poem really resonates with me because I lost my only brother about a year and a half ago--then lost his lovely wife two weeks later! Through the use of specific details, you have painted a lovely picture of your brother.

I'm sorry for your loss. It sounds like a great relationship.
The last rhyme seems a little forced. Maybe 'all the days' demise.' (?)
I apologize if I'm out of line suggesting word changes. Not being a poet, I don't know the protocol.
Best wishes.
