Holding Heart In Hand

May 1, 2018

Crocus - Photo by Patrice

Holding heart in hand
Living, doing the best
That I can

No looking back
Nor focused
On what’s ahead

Staying in the moment
Knowing it’s where
I should be

Instead.

Make no mistake
The heart is needed
To cover all the hurts
That
The silly head
May make.

See your way each and everyday
Be that one, the one you see
And want to be.

The artist that you are
The one you need be.

Cherish the one who gives you joy
Cuddle the one who sinks beneath a burdened load
Find the one whose lost the road
Be yourself where’re you go.

Understand, Don’t Understand

Understand, don’t understand
How the world turns round
Can’t conceive, see the concept
Of what will come to be.

All fits together, all is a mess
Nothing left undone
All’s well and is what
Is the outcome.
~ Patrice

I Don’t Know, Neither Do You

April 12, 2018

I don’t know, neither do you
Where will we go when
We’re through.

I don’t know, neither do you
But we do know where
We’ve been and been through.

I’m Going To Be

April 11, 2018

Pen & Ink Illustration of Yehudi Menuhin by Patrice

I’m going to be here
And over there.

I’m going to be full of brilliance
Nothing more.

I’m going to be forever
Evermore.

I Don’t know The Answer

April 4, 2018

I don’t know the answer
Even as the question
Isn’t asked.

The flow knows the answer
It leaves it on a bed
Of relevance
Fearing nothing
Only feeling dread.

I don’t know the answer
But not to say the answer
Isn’t in my head.

Let The Ruckus Roll

April 2, 2018

Let the ruckus roll
Let the happening
Take its toll.

All is sufficient
Some of which
I don’t know.

Let the ruckus be
Let it travel on
Like the rest of us
To find its own true destiny.
~ Patrice
