Olympic Gold

February 12, 2014

Olympic Gold
Gives wealth in all things to behold.

In the journey to compete
The soul finds inside things that are best to keep
Power, strength and fortitude
Unbelievable, bigger than all magnitude
Along with sharing, caring, you will succeed
Receiving Gold
Either on the hill or in all that you seek.

That’s a winning goal nothing less than
Olympic Gold.
~ Patrice

Struggling, Churning Round

February 10, 2014

Struggling, churning round
Don’t know where there is safe ground.

Grasping, holding tight
Fighting to see some kind of light.

Struggling
Struggling, churning round.

Snow Falling Down Song

February 5, 2014

Snow falling down as we once again sing
That snow falling song.

It goes on and on
No end to the cold winter song
All about more snow falling
Coming down.

We’d sacrifice to have no more ice
Oh God, that would be nice!
Or freezing rain clogging
Icing over the runoff drain.

Think we’ve had enough
But that’s not up to us
So better grab a snow shovel
Clear the winter rubble
Singing the never ending
Snow falling song.
~ Patrice

Lost In Thoughts Of Blooms In Spring

February 3, 2014

Lost in thoughts of blooms in spring
Wishing, hoping soon will be spring
Not sad to let winter go
So glad to be getting pass the cold.

The blooms in spring are what
I’m waiting, wishing for
While here, in the depths
Of frigid, winter cold and snow.

Sitting Here Thinking

January 31, 2014

Sitting here thinking
About what my day may be all about
Hoping for no pressure, just fun, laughter
You know what thats about.

Hoping my heart will grow with love
While my sorrows just ebb away
No tremendous thud
Yes, I could learn to love
What that is all about.

Just sitting here thinking
Thinking what my day
Is going to be all about.
~ Patrice

Why Didn’t I Think

January 29, 2014

Why didn’t I think
This five minutes ago?

Maybe then I’d be standing
On the threshold all dressed in gold
Instead of shivering
Sinking in this wretched hole.

Didn’t think
This is how it would go
Just didn’t think
Five minutes ago.
~ Patrice

So What Is It That’s So Important?

January 22, 2014

So what is it that’s so important?
What makes you strive to be the one you want to be?
The one you need to be?
Is your goal, your need empty?
Or do you fill it with promise?

Does it matter?

Your goal, your life needs to be
It is important
It does matter
It is not empty but filled to the brim with promise
Must be strived for
You can be the one you need to be.

That is important.
~ Patrice
