You are a part of my
life, my brother.
Through years and
miles we’ve laughed,
and thrown our
machines into the wind,
our only thoughts
dwelling on the ride,
and the destination,
and the party waiting.
You are a part of my
life, my brother.
Cleaning and
polishing chrome and paint,
ending up with the
dirt and grease on us,
happily talking and
joking and playing tricks,
and living as if all
the good times are forever.
You are a part of my
life, my brother.
I have shared those
grand times with you,
and I have laughed
and breathed the rare air,
only given to those
of us who reach this height,
and know a sense of
freedom denied to most.
We’ll continue our
life’s ride my brother.
Together, even though
life’s miles grow shorter,
and I’ll share with
you our losses and grief,
and I’ll shelter some
of your hurts in my heart as well,
because, You are
a part of my life, my brother.
Dedicated to our brother Tab
Crabtree who left us too soon...
