My Brother, My Friend

On a hill long forgotten
In a war never won
The Army lost a hero
My parents lost a son

The world lost his laughter
His courage and his grin
I lost my brother
I also lost my friend

A life cut too short
By a loss way too strong
Tho Jerry grows no older
In our hearts he still lives on

Silver stars, awards, and medals
Can't bring my brother back to me
But in my mind's eye I still see him
There Weasel laughs eternally.
