May the rain flow
Onward onward
Into the river of life.
Onward, onward
To a place of no strife
Peaceful beauty
Take me in
Run over me
Cleanse my sin
Bask in the sunshine
Sleep with no fear
Beautiful rain
Flow
Onward from here.

More than narrow high above
Dropping down
Out of love
Market just the very best
Leave the rest off your chest.
Yes you are up
Among the clouds
Soaring high, seeing why
We all have found
A place in the world beyond.

Life is good.
Life is full.
Life is all you need.

Dear sweet friend
How blessed
I be
To know and love
A friend like thee.
Dear sweet friend
No judgement
Ever do I feel
Only love, respect
And dignity.
Dear sweet friend
I hope to be
The same for you
As you have been
To me.

In sadness passing
Passed away
Sadness feeling
Feeling sad today
Gone forever
Gone away.
Sadness deep
Sadness bad
Please today
Sadness
Go away .
Lovely person
No more to play
Laugh or cherish
Love today
Sadness
Sadness pass away.
~ Patrice
In loving memory of Molly.

Busy busy
Hurry hurry
Get it all done
In a hurry.
Make it the absolute best
Don’t scrimp
On the outcome
Make it superb.
But hurry hurry
Make it the best
Get it all done
In a hurry.

Why does it feel so sad?
This is it, all we have
Cherish it, make it best
Don’t be sad, don’t be mad.
Trust the best
Will come to rest
Here among all
Of your kindness.

Robbie Burns Day it is
Go back in time
And listen to what is.
A gifted poet
A man of great stature
One of a kind that
We should look to
With great rapture.
I am in awe
Nothing would stop me
From hoping
That he would come
And guide my hand.
In this writing
Feeling
As I try to expand words
That come to mind
Here and now
