Catch Me If You Can

Catch me if you can
I’m falling deep down
That
Hurtful canyon

Hold my hand
Grasp it tight
Don’t like let go 
Till all that’s out of sight  

Then
Together we will go
You holding me
Me, so grateful.

Hold Me Close, Hold Me Tight

Hold me close, hold me tight 
Let me be safe in your arms forever
And
Thru this dark, dark night. 

Let me see the love you give 
Feel your presence holding me 
Hear your words of wisdom 
Evermore 
Forever, into eternity.

Did You See?

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Did you see?
Did you see the beauty
Reigning all around me?

Did you see the magnificence
Holding me
Embracing me?

Did you see the soul
Who told me
I was loved unconditionally?

Did you see, did you see?

Lifting Up My Head

Lifting up my head
my arms, my heart 
seeing all that could be 
seeing nothing 
that is 
empty, lost. 

Maybe tomorrow 
in the early morning light 
all the answers I seek 
will be before me 
holding me
with unprecedented love
oh so very tight.

Tenderness, Loving And Caring

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Tenderness, loving and caring
Caressing my heart, my life
Tender touch holding me
In warmth
This very night.

Smiling, laughing
Bringing cheer and delight
May you feel love like this
May it hold you safe and secure
All thru your life

Looking Back

Looking back upon my life
Things seem to be
Sometimes
Not very nice.

Looking back not sure what
Got me here
Never saw but felt it near
A presence
Being absolute
Holding me with resolute.

Looking back I can’t see why
I struggled so and didn’t die
Think cause it would pick me up
Dust me off, pat me on the back
Saying words “Go ahead you’re not dead”
“Life has still a lot to offer.”

Looking back down my way
I see I didn’t walk alone
Nor did I saunter
But full stream ahead is what I did
For I had my heart, my soul
And the help a presence offered.
