9/11 will be seen
Buildings will dissipate
Life should not be deemed cheap
For if we all can see ~ Patrice

When things calm down and all is quiet
Hard to conceive what has happened
Chest heaves, tears fall crying
Neither can anyone console
Yes, when all things are calm and the world seems quiet~ Patrice

My brother has passed away
No laugh, no hearing his chuckle
No feeding the brown or the black cat
Now my brother, sleep quiet, sleep sweet~ Pat

Amazing
How the earth does turn
Amazing
That we don’t fall off
Amazing
That the oceans deep give us food
Amazing.~ Patrice

A wall of many trees stand
Many trees stand
Canopy overtop, shading
Taking the impact
Little ones will take its place
As full circle round~ Patrice

Sadness is a part of me
Her heart was pure
In the years
But you were there
Now must accept~ Patrice
