I hear
the engine roar
the smoke billow
and
fly high
up into the air
high
up to the sky
I see people laughing
cordially
taking steps to be
in the midst
of
everything
I feel excitement
racing
round the curves
down
the track
in
anticipation
of
who’s to win
The first
to cross the finish line
the one I know
all
will celebrate and cheer
The one
who’s
the winner.
That’s what I do hear.

Lonely can I be
Wondering
Where everyone could have gone
Leaving me
All alone
Lonely can be
Heartbreak
Broken heart sobbing
Into silence
All alone
Waiting
For a saviour to bring love
Togetherness
To sip the sweet nectar
Of belonging
Not
Not
All alone.

Can I be
Someone who
Loves
Takes care of all things
Dear to me?
Can I?
Can I be
This kind person
I want to be?
Or
Will the whole thing
Escape, bypass this
Wondering Can I person
That’s me?

When I hear
Your heart beat
I want more
More time to love you
More laughs
And
So much more
Don’t go away
Don’t be gone
Forever
Stay with me
Stay
Here forever
Forever more.

No more can I say
Love
Will triumph today
No more
No more will I do
The things that make
You love me too
No more
No more can I be
The one
You want me to be
No more
No more will I stand
Close by loving thee
No more
No more.

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.
