Sibling Arrivalry

                                                                         when she eventually
                                                                                   arrived ..
                                                                       he so much wanted
                                                                                to phone,
                                                                    or rather, dash across
                                                                             to his folks ..
                                                                   with the glorious news
                                                                             and to share,
                                                                     his delight with them ..
                                                                           but they were
                                                                   both gone and he soon
                                                                            remembered ..
                                                                    he was still an orphan ..
                                                                            oh’ how he
                                                                 envied oblivious siblings
                                                                        that is .. until his
                                                                  senses returned to him
                                                                         later that day ..
                                                                when all was good again ..

Hello Neville...

I heard being an orphan is only for children...

If you live to 18 or older and both your parents die you're just an adult with deceased parents...

But, they don't explain how the heart of an orphan can be carried...

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...
