Just Lucky I Guess
~~~
I don’t know how I would have found you
What planets would have needed to align
What crazy crossing of paths or plain kismet
The variables are impossible to define
~~~
Some stroke of luck or blessing by chance
Some good karma returned in kind
Fate brings to me a kindred heart
The kind most improbable to find
~~~
I have not always felt this lucky
Or blessed to have you in my life
And with all the love that I confess
We have had our moments of strife
~~~
But family you are, a sister truly loved
Yet how lucky can one man possibly be
That in this life so undeserving
I got a sister who fits perfectly
~~~

A wonderful dedication
Your sister must be very proud to have a brother like you. Well, the poetry is so touching emotional and reflects the value of a lovable family. And I loved the word choices, especially kismet it’s Urdu, used in many Hindi, Urdu poetries. You are truly versatile, Brad.
I am beyond proud to call Brad brother and beyond more than that to call Brad friend. I trust no one more with my life, I trust no one more with my heart. I am proud and I am lucky!
You both are lucky and wonderful, makes me emotional to see such a beautiful bond. Forever stay blessed 🙏🙂
Thank you my dear friend! You are always so generous with your praise. I am blessed to have a loving sister and fortunate that our lives became intertwined by what can only be called luck or “kismet”.
You are welcome my Friend. 🙂🙏
Oh, Brad…. your words released the pent-up angst I’ve been dealing with in a free flow of tears. I got so wrapped up in the pain that I’d forgotten there is joy present. The joy is you – you in my life, you in my heart. Today, and hopefully ongoing, I will do more to remember that good that will always outweigh the bad, as long as I have you to lean on. I love you beyond words!
You have been, are, and will always be one of the greatest blessings to my life, dear sister! My words are but a humble thank you for being exactly who you are! 💖
a lovely dedication Brad. Brilliant.
All the best to you!
FBC.
Thank you, my friend! Family is sometimes the luck of the draw. My best wishes to you and yours!
It is my friend and if you’ve got a good draw then you’re blessed. All the best,
FBC.
What a sweet brother! Happy Valentine’s Day
Thanks you Beth! 🌹
This is such a beautiful dedication to your sister! My brother & I share an unbreakable bond, something about that sibling connection, nothing will ever be able to touch it. I’m so glad you have your sister & that she has you, too! ❤
Thank you Kristian! I love knowing you have the same type of bond with your brother. Family is a uniquely beautiful hand we are dealt. It’s cool when they come up aces!
Very true! Especially when there are many family members who do not!
what a wonderful tribute to your sister. You two are lucky to have each other…
That we are Jim! Thank you!
Beautiful Brad. I hope she feels the same about you 🌹
We argue at times which of us is going to die first because neither of us can imagine living without the other. I am six years older, so hopefully that will work in my favor. It’s safe to say that I adore him beyond words.
Oh, that is so sweet. I am thrilled to meet you and learn more. Have a wonderful Valentine’s Day.

Moments of strife are part of a sibling relationship, but like most brothers/sisters, love wins out at the end of the day.
Thank you Pete!
