God Forbid

August 4, 2026
God Forbid ~ Watercolour by Patrice

You told me
things
I know you did
but
I didn’t listen.

No I didn’t.

God forbid
that
I listen
learn something new.

God forbid
that
I find
someone like you
who knows
everything
I need to know
and
passes it along.

No strings
attached
nothing to take.

Only
giving
giving with grace.
~ Patrice

Tell Me Something

June 2, 2015

Tell me something
I don’t know
Open up my heart
Let my soul know.

Don’t go down
The street of hurt and anger
Or God forbid
We don’t know the answer.

Tell me something
Tell me something
I need
I need to know.
~ Patrice
