Analysis of A Brotherhood To Share



Not only did the words come,
  they brought their friends along

They pitched their tent and built their fire,
  and began to sing their songs

The sparks flew, as memory rose,
  good tidings in the air

With phrases birthed, new families penned,
  a brotherhood to share

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2016)
