You went away on a gray rainy day,
Dr. Night cried under clouds
Forgive my selfish tears, from this pain you must be free
You are my brother, you'd do the same for me
I told you I'd see you on the other side, guess I'll wait and see
Until then know I carry you in my heart and memory

Patrick,

This poem has an appeal for me which I find quite inexplicable. It conjures up some interesting images. I like the line, "Dr. Night cried under the clouds."

Thank you for this
Keith
