I’ve Seen Your Sweet Face ~ Faldo & Me

I’ve seen your sweet face 
Smiling
Full of grace. 

All
I can do 
Is
Try to be as great 
As great as you.

Let The World Turn

January 31, 2025

Let The World Turn ~ Photo by Patrice

Let the world turn 
resolve the problems 
that really are not our concern. 

Let the sky be blue not with sadness 
but remembering memories not gone 
not lost from me, from you. 

See the earth tremble 
cry in anticipation of wondrous joy to come 
never seeing anything but a good outcome. 

That’s what we should see when looking out 
looking at the world and all the things 
that will become.

Hold It Still ~ Art and Design by Patrice

Hold it still 
Let not the movement depict a sound 
For in the quiet all will be answered 
Salvation will abound.

Riley Passed Away Yesterday

Riley Passed Away Yesterday ~ photo by Patrice

Riley passed away 
yesterday 
his beating heart stopped 
his breath ceased to be 
only memories 
memories that is all we have 
you see. 

A gentle, kind, wondrous guy 
knowing, knowledgeable 
a smile on his face 
devoted beyond belief 
this was Riley 
who now has been. 

He passed away, passed away 
yesterday 
rest in peace sweet Riley 
you were loved and loved 
unconditionally. 
~ Patrice  

~ My deepest condolences to his family and all that loved him ~

Holding On, Holding Tight

Holding On, Holding Tight ~ Photo by Patrice

Holding on, holding tight 
Trying desperately to make it 
Thru the day into night. 

No one to help, no one to say 
Words of wisdom 
Nothing on this day. 

Where will I be, what will I say 
In a world where I’m on my own 
For today.

A World Most Divine

December 13, 2024

Patrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

A World Most Divine - Photo by Patrice

I seek to find 
the world 
in a place divine 

No hatred 
killing 
ever creeping slime 

Caring places all 
on the pedestal of sincere 
and right 

Full of joy 
laughter 
cuddling thru the night 

This is where I want to be 
this is how 
all things should turn 

A place I’ll seek, I’ll look 
I’ll find 
in a world most divine.

The telltale signs are here 
And 
Then they go 
Hidden deep beneath 
The ever flow.

Taste The Scent Of Life

November 22, 2024

Patrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

Last used Nov. 22/24

Taste the scent of life 
Seeking to live in a chaotic world 
With no stress nor strife 
A feat some think unsurmountable 
But possible if you taste 
That scent that brings 
All possibilities to life.

Lies

November 15, 2024

Patrice Clarkson’s Blog

Lies ~ Photo by Patrice

You haven’t been 
Completely honest 
With me, you or anybody 
Always telling half truths 
Bald faced lies 

The question is 
Why, why? 

Nothing gained by your actions 
All lost in the aftermath 
Of your lies 
Your sordid lies 
Lies. 

Will I tomorrow see 
A new you as you say 
The one to tell the truth 

Or 

Is it just another lie 
One of your many, many 
Lies.

Remember To Love

November 8, 2024

Patrice Clarkson’s Blog

Remember To Love ~ Photo by Patrice

Remember to love 
And 
Respect thy self. 

Let no man, woman or child 
Be above the love you show 
Yourself. 

For if you are lost 
To the thoughts of another 
You are lost to you. 

Hard as it may be 
Love with gentleness 
Respectfully. 
~ Patrice
