Never saw it coming
Didn’t know it would
Now have to accommodate
With everything I should.
Never chose the situation
Didn’t know I could
But will immerse myself
Make it all that I should.

Never Saw It Coming
May 6, 2015
I Do Wonder
May 4, 2015I do wonder what would happen
If I didn’t tell the truth
Mired down in anguish
I’d may only say half truths.
Please tell me I wouldn’t
Please tell me I would
Be above and aloof
All the lies lying there
No where near the absolute
My absolute truth.

Great Expectations
May 1, 2015
Great expectations, wonder aloud.
Be in possession of all that is
Bought gently here, on a cloud.
No one will ponder, question or ask
But accept the greatness
One has within them to
Accomplish the task.

All Is Seen
April 17, 2015
All is seen, all is glad
Be ye thankful
For all you’ve had
Can’t take it away
Nor make it bad.
Just believe in yourself
And just be glad
You’ve been given
A gift that many
Have never had.

When Your Heart Is Sore
February 2, 2015 
When your heart is sore
Your tears won’t dry
Remember
You’re not alone
We hear your cries.
Remember too
All who we’ve said goodbye
Are with us still
Only running now
Where angels fly.
~ Patrice
– My deepest sympathies to Jan and Doug in their heartbreaking loss.

Gentle Souls
November 7, 2014
Gentle souls gently resting
Smiling faces greeting burdened souls
Open hearts embracing those that need
Gently raising gentle souls.

Wondering, Wondering
October 1, 2014Wondering, wondering
What tomorrow will bring
Worried, thinking, hoping
Nothing but good things.
Wondering, wondering
What tomorrow and the days after
Have in store.
Wondering, wondering
Still wondering for sure.

Why It Happened And Where
September 24, 2014Why it happened and where
Is not, I suppose
My affair.
Doesn’t stop the questions
Doesn’t make my heart open
Willing to share.
Not my affair
Not mine, not mine
I should not care.
But I do
And I wonder what happened
Even if it’s not
My affair.

No Worries, Things Will Be
July 29, 2014
No worries, things will be
Take a deep breath and leave it to destiny.
No worries, things will be
You’ll see.

Why Or What Can’t Be
July 24, 2014
Why or what can’t be the question I ask not now
Just shouldn’t be.
How won’t work
Just couldn’t be.
Therefore I stand still and wait for the force to
Just tell me.
