Flowing freely on the flow
Floating softly across the sky
Walking slowly around the bend
The funny thing is no one
Knows where I’ve been.

I will come with you
I will walk at your side
together
we will face the heartache
and
come out the other side.

Looking Forward, Looking Back

April 13, 2020

Looking forward, looking back
Living in the present
Trying to keep on track.

No breath is taken lightly
No heartache will
Keep me back.

Living on the precipice
Yet staying on
That beaten path.

Holding Up, Holding Down

Holding up, holding down
World revolving upside down
Maybe tomorrow norm will come
But tomorrow
What will be the outcome?

Love Is Never Lost

March 27, 2020

Patrice's avatarPatrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

Last used March 22/16

Love is never lost
Only left behind or put in a place
Where it can’t grow.

Sow love seeds so dear
Nurture, care
Watch love grow.

No needy nor neglect
Let love grow in your heart
Don’t let it be, ever lost.

For this you’ll know
As you watch it grow
Love can never, ever be lost.

Knowing All

March 24, 2020

Classic Car ~ Illustration by Patrice for B.C. Central Credit Union

Knowing all
Does not help
To know
The best.

Knowing less
Leaves you open
To seek, question
All the rest.

Some Days

Some days are not OK days.

Some days
Carry the burden
Of yesterday.

Some days
Your heart weeps
Your lips pale.

Some days
It’s best to think of
Another day.

Some days

Now

Great Danes from Purina's Hall of Fame ~ Watercolour by Patrice

Wandering now
Where I’ve never been

Seeking now
Things I’ve won’t begin

Leaving now
Thoughts I shouldn’t have held so tight

Gone now
From the darkest night

Flowing now
On a path not so straight

Holding now
Promise as I go to the light.

Heard The Answer

March 19, 2020

Heard the answer
Before the question
Was ever asked.

Knew the answer
Didn’t have to ask
Or form the words
To know
I must be forever
Where the answer is
Not
The question asked.

Holding Still, Holding Fast

March 16, 2020

Holding Still ~ Photo by Patrice

Holding still, holding fast
Waiting, waiting For the terrible, the bad
To pass.

Then the sun will shine, rivers flow
Lives will live, love and give
To all they know.
