Resting in my chair at last
After the morning repast
Pondering what to do this day
Thoughts of you did pass my way

Smiling as I recalled that day
When we first met and talked away
And the evening hours melted away
Gone too soon dare I say

Now waiting patiently for the days to pass by
While I conjure clever ways to plan a call
To meet again somewhere close by
Not too soon or not at all

I will take my time to plan
.So I will not fail to meet again
This fine lass I have met so I might woo her best I can
When I see her once again

The sky grew dark and gray
The earth and trees began to sway
All living creatures trembled in fear
As the end of the world felt near

The scent of blood and death was in the air
Cries of pain and agony were heard
Carried on the winds causing great fear
Not knowing the cost of forgiveness came dear

Mankind’s Light of the World died that day
And the darkness of souls were portrayed
Down into the Tomb of Hell the Light was placed
The Sacrificial Lamb of Grace

The Light of the World was in darkness for 2 days
Despair and hopelessness of all rampaged
Without the Light feeling bewildered and lost
Watching the Tomb of Hell covered in moss

The morning of the third day
The Light of the World again shown to display
That the Tomb of Hell was open and bare
A miracle had just happened there

The soul had risen from sin’s Hell
The Light of the World had arose to tell
All had been forgiven their sins
If they ask for it through Him

Thus Mankind’s physical body dies
But his spirit will live and rise
For the Lamb of Grace was the ultimate sacrifice
We have his gifts of Light and Eternal life

The Light of the World was snuffed out
For 2 days and nights in darkness and doubt
The third morning it shone again
To Light the World and Heavens without sin

There are many things
As I look around my apartment
That are old, decrepit, dusty and worn
I shall hire myself a skip
And throw them all into yesterday
Where they all belong
As relics of the past
Myself included

In the great woods
you'll find gallantry
there amongst the tree spirits
iron and blood
which is without their need
will not invoke them
for a parade of souls
who paid to the corn god
for succession of evils
wilt away in the groves
and as day gives to night
the fire festivals
come alive
to sacrifice the bull
blood amongst the young
and the garlands
roll in the wind
as we scrape the earth
in yearning
but let us burn the effigy
for Adonis to rise

Good morning America.
We’re mourning America.
The, once great America,
Dear God save America.
What the hell is happening?
Crimes were once a bad thing.
The hypocrisy is maddening,
He’s why the world is laughing.
Now what of law and order?
Most look on in horror,
Seniors breaking bad
On Pennsylvania ave,
And he was proud as peacocks,
The former “king of New York”
My, my look what we’ve got,
Tempest in a teapot.
See the rich and powerful,
They too are accountable,
So I won’t shed a tear,
While justice has two tiers,
One for me and mine,
For whom she’s never blind,
In the life a day,
Rich men never pay!
Poor man chasing dreams,
These men devils’ schemes,
And I won’t say his name
The lies his claim to fame.
So let him do the perp walk,
Mugshots take them too,
And let the whole world watch
See what pride does to a fool!

I kept this yellow ribbon to tie
It around the old oak tree
I wondered if it would make you
Actually think of me

I leant across the trunk today
Knowing that my feelings had flown away
All that was left was the memory

Of our love that which we shared
The momentary kiss to know you cared
The heartfelt absence of you not being there
Made my heart ache within, and I knew
That you weren't being very fair!

I tied that yellow ribbon to the tree
And left it to sway within the wind
And as it danced, feeling free
It pirouetted into a new beginning

It made me feel lighter today
As my burdens and anxieties went away
Dancing freely, like the leaves
That swirled, twirled, helping me to finally feel

Yeah Now
That's Where I Know You
We > Stuck > Him
And > We > Stuck > Him > Again
Don?t You Remember
To Bad 'Cuz He's Your Friend
But It Was The Best Thing
'Cuz He's Back Here To Send
<~ You ~ The ~ Only
Way ~ Out
Not To Pretend
We = Cruci
Him = Fied
While He's Still Alive
But This Was
Not His Demise
With Sepulchre Stone
Gone Now To Behold
Tomb Empty Room
Nothing Shown But Shroud
Or A Temple Veil Rent
'Cuz He's Risen Today
And Lives In
Your Heart

Barely your lips brushed mine, a whispered touch

Provoking euphoric passions, stirring desirous lust

Unleashes fervent longing as you touch my skin

Releasing veiled quelled ardour, crushed within

Gently, anxiously you take my hand and lead the way

To insurmountable loves renunciation from this day

Souls coalesce entwined in the passion of this night

Adulation emboldens concession or take to flight?

Passion resonates lost in a lover’s euphoric abyss

Drinking new loves sweet nectar, in rapturous sips





By Patti Richards - 2011

There are times in life, we delve into the past
Not seeking sad times, but when happiness cast
An uplifting period, that showed me a new way
To move forward, for those forthcoming days

Music was involved, as it set the real scene
And so recently, I followed a path I'd been
In the hope to help others, that is my goal
Maybe in the process, heal my own soul

Dance has been my life, seeing others smile
I intend to combine, within my experience style
So during our kiwi winter, I will share as I can
It's already past planning, arrangements in hand

I may not be competing, but an afternoon a week
Will I hope give others friendships, when they meet
Other who want to learn to dance, or just a place to go
Joining others I've taught, and the seed of dance sow

If I can uplift, those who feel isolated and really alone
To try some new hobbies, and other are close by phone
We all have a time in life, when we have to take a stand
Take a new direction briefly, giving other a helping hand
