Fireflys Dance In The Dark

Fireflys dance in the dark
Coyotes cry of times long gone
The joy that darkness hides
Envelopes and keeps me warm.

In a state of wonder
Of  night’s magic
While bats circle and dive
And deer silently pass
Through willows
Into the eery moonlight.

Where the night holds
All that dance far into the night
In the dark
The dark wondrous night.

The Easy Way Out

June 12, 2015

Patrice's avatarPatrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

The easy way out.
Duck the clout and measure
The distance to get out.

Don’t hesitate and ponder
What it’s all about.
Just duck
Duck and get out.

The reasons are many
The answers few
Don’t worry what’s right
Worry about you.

Survive another day
Cause it’s all about you
That’s what it’s about.
Take the easy way out.

Your Calling Is Calling

Your calling is calling
I think.

Follow and listen
To the directions
On how to proceed.

You may need help.
It will be there.
You may need support.
It will be there.
You may need reassurance
The way is right.
It will be made clear.

In the end
You’ll find its
You that has done all this
For you.

Listen…

Some Things Are Hard

May 29, 2015

Last used May 29/15

Patrice's avatarPatrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

Some things are hard to remember.
They crush the spirit, they crush the soul.
We’ll never know what would have happened
If they never had been told.

Muster pass, remember this
They are not your whole world
Only a small part of it.
The beauty of the rest will still unfold.

Some Dreams

Some dreams are achieved.
Some dreams never see fruition.
Some dreams are dashed.
Some dreams become beautiful only in their demise.

In The Near Future

May 15, 2015

Patrice's avatarPatrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

In the near future and the past
Everything was aghast.
Not so liked but tolerated
Sad to say, that was my past.

I am aghast I let it past
Say no more and move along
My life is worth more
Than a sad, sad song.

Vince's Border terrier ~ Watercolour Art by PatriceSee you there
In that happy place
Full of joy, full of grace.
You will bow and I will chase
All the butterflies that giggle
And face the troubles
I’m trying to erase.

Maybe now it does not exist
Because I showed them
I will resist.

Be ye happy.
Be ye pleased because together
We brought them to their knees.
Here, in the near future
And most likely in the past
With absolute ease.

Great Expectations

May 1, 2015

Patrice's avatarPatrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

Brandy ~ Watercolour Art by PatriceGreat expectations, wonder aloud.
Be in possession of all that is
Bought gently here, on a cloud.
No one will ponder, question or ask
But accept the greatness
One has within them to
Accomplish the task.
