No one can tell
no one can
say
all those things
I need to hear
just to get me
through
today.
Heaven help
if
you please
I need
comforting
come be near
holding me.

I know you haven’t seen me
Nor anything I do
Know
I’m just a back screen
Meaning nothing
Nothing
Ever to you.
I know I won’t be front and centre
In anything you do
But then I don’t care
You see
For you’re nothing to me
Or is anything
You ever do.

You walked a mile
You walked to town to buy groceries
You walked for fun
And
I think to clear your head
Of
Things not necessary.
Your quiet way, your giggle
Your wave
As you walked
In the middle of the road
I miss these
I miss
Everything
About you already
But
Most of all
I miss you.
There’s a chair for you
To rest on
As you walk
This last walk, this journey
You’re now taking.
Please, when you get there
Let us know
You made it safely
That
You’re resting nicely
You’re laughing
With your old friends
You made it there.
Walk carefully, walk gently
Sweet Patsy
We miss you
But
We know you now walk
Freely
With not a care.
~ Patrice
Rest in Peace Patsy ❤️💞❤️

A million miles away
The sun shines
No matter
The time of day.
My heart must bring
That sun from far
To my day, my walk
My way.
Holding close all
That’s good
All I need to make
It thru today.
From a million miles away
The sun shines
Shines on me
As I’m on my way.
