My Heart Is Sore

My heart is sore
My soul is too
I’ve lost a friend, a loved one
It was you.

So kind, so sweet
So strong, so dear
A gentle heart
I miss you being near.

No more to say
No more to hear
That laugh
That heartfelt cheer.

You had love for yours
Love of life
Blessed to know
Now gone to live with Christ.

We’ll miss you
My friend
Even thou we know you’ll walk near
We’ll see your smile, we’ll feel your cheer.

Rest in peace
My friend Pat
Pat
You are so dear.

Sunset Rests And Meditates

 

 

 

 

 

Sunset rests and meditates
Sees life in all its states
Smiling sweetly, caressing care
This is needed, we must share.

Love of life not destitute
Living on the edge of gratitude
You are mine and I don’t care
To hold the reins of any old despair.

Travel thru bright, clear day
See the sunset rise
Filling hearts far into
Lovely evening tide.
~ Patrice

Thank you Ingrid
For your lovely thanking card.

I found within the fold
Kindness, strength and power
Caressed with courage
So untold.

Love of life
A will to be part of all
You can behold.

Thank you Ingrid
For your lovely
Loving thanking card
