I Feel The Coldness In My Heart

February 19, 2016

Patrice's avatarPatrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

I feel the coldness in my heart
I feel it envelope me
Turning all to frozen frost
No emotion, no anger, shame or fear
No happiness, laughter or anything sincere
This coldness is all I feel
Here in my frozen sphere.

Let love break the way
Melt sadness, anger all away
Rushing forth with laughter
Keeping coldness far at bay
Drip love down deep within my soul
Making warm caring thoughts
Embrace me entirely all today
Keeping coldness far, far away.

Love and Tenderness ~ Watercolour Art by Patrice

I know the answered answer

I know why

I know how the question answered

I just don’t know

The answers why.

It Isn’t

February 17, 2016

It isn’t what they say
It isn’t what they do.

It’s how I feel it
Thru and thru.

May The Rain Flow Onward

February 5, 2016

Patrice's avatarPatrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

May the rain flow
Onward onward
Into the river of life.
Onward, onward
To a place of no strife
Peaceful beauty
Take me in
Run over me
Cleanse my sin
Bask in the sunshine
Sleep with no fear
Beautiful rain
Flow
Onward from here.

I am the one
That’s best to live
This life I’ve lived
Since life did start
To tick
Within my chest
My heart.

Why Are We Here?

January 8, 2016

Patrice's avatarPatrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

Why are we here? Where did we come from? Where will we go?
Have we been here before?
All questions that have been asked for a extremely long time.

Does my dog, my cat or horse ask the same questions? Does the deer wandering thru the woods think of these things? Does the robin sitting on her nest of eggs?

I wonder…

We Remember We Forget

January 7, 2016

Photo by Mom and Dad

We remember we forget
All the rights, the wrongs
Some regrets.

Fill the sky
With singing cries as
Lasting earth gives us birth.

No more to tread
On unsound ground
Fly our journey
The world round.

Write My Words

January 4, 2016

Write my words
Get them out
To the world and throughout
The meadow, stream or a skunk
If he cares to listen, tho I doubt.

My words will be
Ones I need to say
Not rambling
In a narcissistic way.

Meaning something
Felt and heard
Lasting maybe
On tongues that have heard.

Hear them now
Listen close
I’ll whisper softly
The ones you need the most.
~ Patrice
