I am grateful
for the love
I feel
today, tonight
It’ll guide me
through
all heartache
strife
My heart, my head
my hands
my feet
all moved together
with that
an universal beat
All
are grateful
for
this love
Placed
in
our heart
that
makes it move
with such
a lovely
lovely beat.

You told me
told me
how it was
going to be
You told me
told me
but
I just couldn’t see.

You can not
colour
you can not
be
someone
full of courtesy
if
in your heart
there beats
anger
absolute misery.
~ Patrice
@ Patrice Clarkson – 2025
Let me not begin
to feel
all the anger
misery
Let my eyes see
happiness, gratitude
everything
but
misery
Let my feet trod
on
hallowed ground
let not a stone
make me stumble
fall down
And
Let my hands hold
all that’s right
now, forever
even
thru the darkest night.

The sun shines bright
Radiating, glowing
with
all it’s might.
Let me not
be standing in the shadows
not feeling
its’ love, warmth, beauty
and
delight.

Birds do sing
the sun does
shine
the world turns
lost
in
endless time
The song they sing
sounds
through the valleys
echos out
to
sunny skies
Where birds
fly
stars twinkle
and
I laugh, I cry
seeing
with
wondrous eyes.

You gave me life
you gave me
hope
you saw the future
you strove
to make it real
the most
I saw you do this
I held on
tight
I walked behind you
I tugged a little
at
your coat
Now grown
we walk together
now
we’ve seen the fruition
of
all our planning
striving, hope
The Light
We’ll smile
that
we made it
we’ll laugh and cry
for
we are together
resting quietly
up
in the blue, blue sky.

Feeling
the heart
feeling the love
in
the midst
of
passion
I succumb
to
another’s touch
another’s
love.

@ Patrice Clarkson – 2025
The future is mine
as
it is yours
Let’s journey
together
Me
with mine
and
you with yours.
~ Patrice
@ Patrice Clarkson – 2025
No one else
no one will be just the same
cause as you may know
or can see
we’re all unique
never not the same
not the same as
you and me.
