Brother Dearest

I miss you more than words can say,

I miss you more each passing day.

I listen for you in the night,

Under stars that twinkle bright.

…

I imagine you within the sand,

Among the sandworms once so grand.

I think of you in fields of green,

A landscape that you'd find obscene.

…

Alia, she tightens grasp,

Dune knows war just like in past.

I see the banners flying grand,

I think of water spilt on sand.

…

Grandmother is in my mind,

Although her none of us can find.

Irulan, I too give thought,

As battle wages, deaths for naught.

…

To father too, my mind it flies,

To he who lost the use of eyes.

What if he once more saw this world?

As his war once more unfolds?

…

And yet my thoughts come back to you,

Brother dearest, soulmate too.

Hope and pray I see you soon,

For empty is this world called Dune.
