I hear your cry
I hear that mournful sound
echoing
amongst the hills
valleys
all around.
Will I too cry, will I be sad
inconsolable
in my quest for love
amongst
all this sadness
and
sorrow?
No answer comes
no words uttered
all
I hear is
that awful
awful
mournful sound.

Please make the world
a better place
one with not only beauty
but
loving, caring grace.
Let no one be left behind
hurt or disgraced
keep loving all things
as you would want yourself
loved and embraced.

My heart goes out to the the people and their families
that lost their lives on this day one year ago.
I’ve had help
I’ve not been alone
Only have to look to my side
To see
You there.
Not a word is said
But
A voice I hear
Conveying thoughts
Instilling
Absolutely no fear.

Every time
I hear your heart beat
my breath is taken away
Every time
Every time
my heart does race
when I feel your love so near
Every time
Every time
my soul seeks
refuge in the love we share
I know I will be safe
Every time
Every time

Hear the words spoken
softly
in your ear.
Heed the directions
given
without apprehension.
Know
the master of the universe
is near.
Holding
you
protecting you.
Have no fear.

Wishing all
‘HAPPY HOILDAYS’
Staying safe and healthy each and everyday
~ Patrice
The feeder hangs
Quiet and discreet
Waiting for company
To enjoy her treats.
No bad or evil thoughts
Does she convey
Feeding all who happen
To pass her way.
Filled up or near empty
She stands quietly there
Holding something
She lives to share.

Loyalty is something
We all need
No questions asked, no what ifs
No
None of that.
When the world goes
Full round
It makes sure
All
Is right
All is above ground.
That’s when
I see
My loyalty is to
The earth
All creatures, all things
Including me.

Honoured to be part of
A world caring
Generous and loving
Even if tomorrow storms gather
Obscuring laughter
It doesn’t matter
For those clouds will part
Be blown away
All will be lovely once again
As it was just yesterday.

My journey is special
I am elite
No one else walks, talks
Or looks like me.
My heart skips a beat
When I look in the mirror
For there someone exceptional
Is looking at me.
No one in this world
This story or be
The exact same example
The same human being.
I am special
I am me.

Let me hold you tight
Protect you through
The darkest night
Let no harm come to you
As I watch for wrong to come sneaking in
On that darkest night
I will put myself in front of you
Protect and sacrifice my life
So that you may live thru this darkest
Darkest night.
