A solitary fire fighter stands amidst the rubble and smoke in New York City. Days after a Sep. 11 terrorist attack, fires still burn at the site of the World Trade Center. U.S. Navy Photo by Photographer’s Mate 2nd Class Jim Watson. (RELEASED)
9/11 will be seen As a time of horror Heartache And oh, such bravery When 9/11 angels were sent to heaven Too much hate No saving.
Buildings will dissipate But lives lost or ruined Will be remembered Then, now and for decades The reason lost on most, everyone Not known why Most of all by those who died Really, not understood by anyone.
Life should not be deemed cheap All life is sacred, revered That is my belief Say a prayer, pray for those Who lost their lives And those Who were the reason.
For if we all can see We must live together Work together, love together In peace and tranquillity Then it will be ours forever It will forever Be. ~ Patrice
No more I say No more will I be angry I’ll stay in the blessed day away from dark clouds ones that carry sadness, sorrow making heartache fill the days of tomorrow.
I’ll live the blessed, the right way holding all that’s loved in gentle tenderness no need for revenge or anger no not today nor tomorrow. ~ Patrice
The earth will stop and rotate back around
No friendly comment can expose
A sneaky agenda found beneath the folds
Then and only then will laughter stop a train
Heartache be nothing and nothing to blame
When the sorcerer comes to town
Will you be here or over there?
Will I stand tall or fade to fair?
Will trees bend dropping leaves
Upon the ground
Or reach up scratching heaven’s sky?
Don’t know but I will tell you why

When The Sorcerer Comes To Town
October 25, 2019When the sorcerer comes to town
The earth will stop and rotate back around
No friendly comment can expose
A sneaky agenda found beneath the folds
Then and only then will laughter stop a train
Heartache be nothing and nothing to blame
When the sorcerer comes to town
Will you be here or over there?
Will I stand tall or fade to fair?
Will trees bend dropping leaves
Upon the ground
Or reach up scratching heaven’s sky?
Don’t know but I will tell you why
When the sorcerer comes to town.
