See me
I am here.

See me
I must not fear
You see.

See me
In all I be
See me.

Some days are better
No matter the weather
So, make this day better
Than all of yesterday’s best.

I am here
Nowhere else but here
Right now
Won’t be here forever
But I’m here right now.

Then it was over.
And I stood on the precipice watching my heart flow away.

Why did it happen?
Where will it go?
None of the answers are a soft pillow.

Morning Glory Surely Rides

July 26, 2013

Morning glory surely rides
On the tide of morning rise
Sleep was sound
Resting peacefully all around
Now we raise our presence
To the morning sun
Boldly moving in a direction
That will free us in
The morning glory sun.

When The Busyness And Crazies

July 19, 2013

Chickens and Eggs ~ illustration by Patrice for the Educational Publisher, Ginn and Company

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When the busyness and crazies
Go swirling around my head
When the future and past collide
With something full of only dread.

That’s when
I must hollow out a niche
And cuddle there instead.

Cause no one has
Ever heard of chicken soup
To ease the sop
That fills my head.
~ Patrice
