Beauty In Nature

December 20, 2022

We come to see
The beauty in nature
Here, for all
To see.

Just take a breath
Look around
See
All the magnificence
That nature has given
To you, to me
~ Patrice

Snow Flies

December 16, 2022

Patrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

Snow flies
And we answer
Why? Why?

Blizzards blow fierce white
Changing darkness
Into a brilliant seeing night.

Cold with icicles
Dripping down
Covering a frigid, frozen ground.

Rivers run underneath
A covering of ice and snow
Sometimes more than a foot deep.

We live thru this
We
We do exist.
~ Patrice

Things Happen

December 9, 2022

Patrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

Things happen
I don’t know why
Placing me in places
Sometimes sad
Sometimes I even cry.

Then the heavens open up
Raining down
Blessings warm and bountiful
Covering everything
Everything all around.
~ Patrice

Once Again

November 10, 2022

Once again I write
What I see
What I’m to hear as the words
Begin to be.

Sometimes so great
Sometimes just grim
But all those words need
Need to be written.

Spoken in text
To those that need them
Those to who
They were meant to be given.
~ Patrice

You’re Not The One

November 8, 2022

I know you’re not the one
I’m supposed to be.

I’m the one I need to be
in my heart, my head.

All things I do
that’s who I’m suppose to be.

You’re but someone
who accompanies me.

Some Days

November 4, 2022

Patrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

Some days are sad
In remembering the past
The heartache and anguish
Seems to last and last.

You know years have passed
You know all have moved on
Yet still some days are hard
The sadness seems to go
On and on.
~ Patrice

The Hearts

October 28, 2022

Patrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

The hearts of men and every woman
Beat, pound a melodic rhythm
Breath taken in, breathing out
Lungs expand and eyes look about
Fingers touch a soft, gentle ground
As feet run full speed all around.

All this done with not a thought
Of how to do it or where it starts
For life begins and only stops
When the end has come
And the heart, it stops.
~ Patrice
