Holding On, Holding Close

Holding on, holding close 
all that I love and cherish
through
the darkest time.

Let us not be separated
or
hurt in anyway 
any kind.

This I ask
I pray
to
the wondrous, great Divine.

I’ve Seen Your Sweet Face

I’ve seen your sweet face 
Smiling
Full of grace. 

All
I can do 
Is
Try to be as great 
As great as you.

A Plan

Putting together
A plan
Making it work
Making it grand.

Don’t know
The outcome
Don’t know the path
I must take.

Only thing I know
I have a plan
And it is great
Grandiose and grand.

Heading Down The Road

 

 

 

 

 

Heading down the road
Going the way
My small voice saids

She saids,

‘Come be blessed and happy
Come travel on the road
The path you’re meant to be
Enjoy every moment
Let not anything just be
Savour, inhale
All the road has to offer
On this great, lovely journey.’

Come along, join me.

Great Expectations

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Great expectations, wonder aloud.
Be in possession of all that is
Bought gently here, on a cloud.
No one will ponder, question or ask
But accept the greatness
One has within them to
Accomplish the task.

Give Me Strength, Power And Might

 

Give me strength
Power and might
To do what
in my heart
I know is right.

No sacrifice
Is too great
When in the end
I’ve done the things
I know are right.

Pain and anguish
May be mine
But if my heart
Turns sad to love
Then it’s right.

So please
Give me strength
Power and might
To do that which
In my heart
I know is right.

Let Me Be Inspired

Let me be inspired
Let me see my way
Down the road
Across the pasture
Far into life
Way on my way.

You have always
Helped me through
You have been there
When my way fell apart
And I didn’t know
What to do.

I can stand now
On my own
On my own because of you
Let me be inspired
Let me follow through.

Let me see my way
Down the road
Becoming great
Great just like you.

Peek Beneath

Peek beneath
All that covers
See things
As they really are.

Face them square
Confront and dare
All to be everything
You need.

You and me
We can be
More than anything
We dare.

So peek beneath
Accept the dream
And be the one
You really are.

Enjoy the day

This one great day.
