Sorry I didn’t help
Sorry I didn’t see
All the misfortune
Overwhelming you
Me.
It may be tomorrow
When I can see
The way to help you
Set you free.
Until then
Please be patient
Do all you can to understand
Not
Judging me.

A early start and a late beginning
Holds the answer
To all winning.
Let no one see your hesitation
Be brave, forge ahead
It will be your salvation.

I fell off the world’s face
Down into the depths
Of disgrace
No hope, no saving grace
Mired deep
In a unholy place.
Then out of that depth
A saviour came
Putting his arms around
Making me claim my place
In blessed, holy time.
I live
Making no mistakes
Doing no crime
I see the world’s true face
It is such a wondrous place
And is now mine.

The worst is over
The healing begins to mend
Silently
We hold one another
We know we are together
Once again.
No one will break us apart
No, never again
Will we be so bitter, angry
With one another
For the healing, the mending
Now begins.

I see your life in front of me
I see when you fail
And
When you succeed.
Yours is not a life of in-between
You go for all
You leave nothing undone
Nothing not tried.
Yes
That’s the way
The way it all seems.

Riley passed away
yesterday
his beating heart stopped
his breath ceased to be
only memories
memories that is all we have
you see.
A gentle, kind, wondrous guy
knowing, knowledgeable
a smile on his face
devoted beyond belief
this was Riley
who now has been.
He passed away, passed away
yesterday
rest in peace sweet Riley
you were loved and loved
unconditionally.
~ Patrice
~ My deepest condolences to his family and all that loved him ~

Experience life
Experience joy
Watch the tide rise
The heart breathe
A pounding employed
See the birds fly
A mockingbird cry
Feel the wind blow
Above and beneath
The evening sky
No remorse employed
Regrets not even a few
All life is abound
With joyous blessings too.
–Patrice

Holding on, holding close
All that I love
All that means the most
To me
Throughout.
All that is dear
No more will I let go
To lose, to discard
Oh no!
Hold on, hold close
Today, tonight
Throughout all this
My life.

Never heard them say
Words seeking disaster
No, not today.
But may I testify
That words were said
In anger
Words that need not
Be said
Not one more day.
Keep them contained
In humour
Make those that need
Laugh today.
Never more
Courting disaster
Never hating ever again
If only for just today.
~ Patrice
