This is dedicated to my siblings:

Flirty introductions were followed by invitations into warm and loving hosts

Joy lasts for moments untold

Laughter echos off the walls

Light whispers in the dark

Cigarette smoke, perfume and body scents filled the air

A coupling for a time

Your eyes always flittered across the landscape of your surroundings

More prettiness to gaze upon and pursue

Mutual attraction was duplicated on many occasions

You were a magnet for those wanting and needing love

You infected them with it

They became impregnated

Filled up with the essence and biological evidence of you

Seeds were planted and watered

They bloomed into flowers

Some were wrapped up and gifted to your lovers as beautiful bouquets

Others wilted and died, so beautiful and pure in their descent into forever

Some seeds blew away scattered across time and space

Given to others to nurture and raise

Years go by and then you leave

You were taken actually

Cut down, so young

“My seeds” you say as your eyes close

“Reunite my seeds please” was the prayer on your lips

And so it was answered

Hello my sister

What a beautiful flower you are

Hello brothers, my how handsome and smart

Let’s find the others

Come together as one

United

Family forever
