So now is the time
for my brother Hugh
That in the family
is known as hubedoo
It truly is a blessings
that we still have you
After everything last year that
you had to go through
In that short time ago
you were pronounced to die
And it was on God
that we did rely
When the family did
our prayers to heaven cry
To please delay you from
having to say goodbye
Just thinking of it and
how the doctors now say
That only by a miracle
is there any way
You are here in
such good health today
And it’s looking like
you’re here to stay
Declaring that I love you
would be putting it mild
You’ll always be “big brother”
to this younger child
As every little girl knows
our brothers stand apart
And my dearest Hugh
you’re special to my heart
