" Little Brother Dan "

Dan is Nicks little brother
he got use to hearing me say
get in the car and don't
ask any questions
like when Nick broke his arm
riding his motorcycle
in the meadow near the house
where he had made his own
motorcross track
Daniel had to go along
for the ride to the hospital
Nick was in the backseat
of the car and Dan
was up in the front with me
the road was bumpy
and Nick complained
because of the pain
Dan called him a big baby
tempers flared
after x-rays our doctor
was going to put a cast
on Nicks arm
he started to cut the sleeve
on Nicks motorcross shirt
Nick stopped him
I told Nick I would cut the shirt
on the seam and sew it like new
the cast went on
