I have lived before
I have lived a life
In the distant past
Good or bad I had
A life before memories
Faded
In the distant past
They didn’t last
As new ones evolved
Different but built on
That life lived
In the distant past.

You walked a mile
You walked to town to buy groceries
You walked for fun
And
I think to clear your head
Of
Things not necessary.
Your quiet way, your giggle
Your wave
As you walked
In the middle of the road
I miss these
I miss
Everything
About you already
But
Most of all
I miss you.
There’s a chair for you
To rest on
As you walk
This last walk, this journey
You’re now taking.
Please, when you get there
Let us know
You made it safely
That
You’re resting nicely
You’re laughing
With your old friends
You made it there.
Walk carefully, walk gently
Sweet Patsy
We miss you
But
We know you now walk
Freely
With not a care.
~ Patrice
Rest in Peace Patsy ❤️💞❤️

Tomorrow comes
Then
It ends
Taking place in today
Passing
Through to the past
Ending in history
To be
Retold once again.

Quietly, silently
I hear
The thunder roar
Sending a message
Down
The valley’s corridor.
Will there be an answer
Will the Earth
Reply
Succumb, or implore?
Not mine to know
But
Just to hear
The thunder roar.

Remember when a laugh and smile
Were the only thing that made
The day’s itinerary song?
Remember when laughter
And carefree days lasted
All year long
The thought of winter didn’t
Come to mind
Didn’t come along.
Then there was when
A door opened up
And seriousness came along.
No smiles, no laughter
The whole day long
Winter winds blew
And the heart was frozen
In sadness
Crying was the only song.

Heaven can take me only
Where I want to go
No detours, nowhere else
Should I go.
My journey may
Coincide
With you and others
Together we will travel
Side-by-side.
Into the future
Being what
We alone decide.

One can hear
The world sing
A song
So quiet, so lilting.
A smile comes
Across my face
As I hear
The world sing.
No more anger
Not one bit of hate
Only love flows
Freely
Dissipates
The wrong, the sadness
That’s what I feel
As I hear
Hear
The world sing.

Holy helps me
Believe the world is round
Green belongs
On summer leaves.
Everything else
Will come in it’s time
Passing through
Biding time.
Make no choice you’ll regret
Remember
You’re not alone.
Holy’s here
On this you can be
Certain
You can bet.

Trying to think
What went wrong
What
Was not right
Didn’t
Belong.
My heart
Holds the answers
My mind
The way.
Together we will walk
Into
The future
Believing we are not
Yesterday.
