Daniel’s Skull

His words rhyme

In a melody of sensitivity

Reminiscent of heartache

And grand insight from Life

And his honest lips drip

With pain and an innocence

But he churns thickly

(And often comedically)

Into the most unyielding support

For his artist sisters

And his brothers alike

A kinship of struggles

On the bloom of creativity

An indulgence of laughs

Philosophical banter and nonsense typed

Breathing booze and a smoke

In a valley of beauty

Topped with snow-capped inspiration

And his majestic loyalty humbles me

From across the miles

But always in my heart
