The Beginning

See the ending 
The beginning to be 
Something different 
Exceptional
For you and for me.

No retaliation, nor regrets 
For this ending 
Will begin a new beginning 
Better 
For you and for me.

Experience Life

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

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.

Once More I Write 2013

I wrote this 4 years ago but believe it still applies today.
Something to strive for, to accomplish.

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Once more I write 2013. Still strange and scary in some way.

Gone, lost, done is the 2012 year.
Whatever I had wanted to accomplish in that year
I did – or – I didn’t.
It has ended now and I can’t change one bit of it.
Regrets? Yes.
Devastating? Most certainly.
Truly heart-warming? Yes, and much more.

Now I must move on, make this new year the best that I can.
Will I have setbacks and heartache?
Most likely.
But I know I will also have experiences that will take me to the top.
Joy, happiness, success and most of all, love.
This I know because I will make it so.
This is my plan. My resolution for this new year.

Come join me, make it your best year yet. Filled with happiness, love and those wonderful experiences that will carry you thru any dark days that do occur.
And be…

Was A Dark And Awful Night

Was a dark and awful night
When the world took my saviour away
Leaving sadness, regrets
No laughing, only crying crys
And harsh words spoke in harsh terms
Stomping thoughts crushed my saviour
Crushed my saviour’s life that night
A dark and awful, awful night.
~ Patrice

My deepest sympathies to the families and friends of those massacred in Orlando. My thoughts and prayers are with you.  ❤ ❤

Regrets, None

Regrets, none
That I get.

Morose, you know
You bet.

Melancholy, hoping
Hoping for the best.

Settle, settle not
Go get.

Don’t, don’t forget
It’s your day.

Make it, make it
With no regrets.

Maddening Anger Washing Over Me

Maddening anger washing over me
Saddening anguish consuming me
Struggle to shake off
Blend and be
A happy person no matter
Whats happening in and around
Of me.

She’s Coming Home

 

She’s coming home
I’ll pick her up
No more alone
Forever to stay here
Here at home.

May have sadness
Remorse and regrets
But she will lay
In peace and happiness
Forever, ever to be missed
My sweet
Sweet little miss.

Her soft, rough fur
Her gentle brown, caring eyes
Her tail that never wags
No barks, no romping
A smile upon her sweet face
I may see no more.

But home you’ll be
Home with me
Forever
Evermore.

Make the world a better place because you were here and chose to do so.

Shall we start?

This is It And What We Get

This is it and what we get
Please don’t have any regrets
Because the world is small
And full of things
We should not forget.

Move on, pass through
Trace your steps
Of what you want to do
Pleased with yourself
Master of those deeds you’ve done
Run forward
Forward into the bright distance sun.

You are one. One and only one
Don’t forget this is it
And truly all you’re going to get
Make it good, make it just the best
Full, with no regrets.
