We Three Brothers

And the Routes They Took

By Rowan Finley Published 5 years ago 1 min read

We three brothers went separate ways

Through life we plunged, sifting through the maze

One of us, led to instruct youthful minds

One of us, moved to provide therapy, reading doctoral signs

One of us, inspired to advise college students

All of us, in our work, fluent

Mother and Father would never have known

Until we three brothers were up and grown

It is interesting how different biological brothers can be

All unique and free

We three brothers all found wives

For meaningful relationships we all had drives

We three brothers all became fathers

All of us doting on our daughters

For holidays we three brothers sit and watch

As all the little cousins play hopscotch

This is the life to be had

For as we watch we three brothers are certainly glad
