A World Most Divine

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.

Understand

December 12, 2024
Understand ~ Photo by Patrice

Do I know
or
understand 

The way the world turns
as if
on elastic bands 

So simple to think of
so hard
to
understand 

That maybe
everything turns in a way
that’s
too simple 

Too simple
to 
understand.

The Blue, Blue Sky

December 9, 2024
Last used Dec. 9/24

You can find me
close by
not far from the hills
under
the blue, blue sky. 

Let me show you
all the magic
I find
on that hill
and
far, far away
up in
the blue, blue sky.

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

Feel The Brightness

December 5, 2024
Feel The Brightness ~ Painting by Patrice

Feel the brightness close by
the heat
from
the warmth
make you close your eyes
to let it
penetrate
throughout your body
holding, warming you
no matter what 

Then
smile bright in delight
for
you’re loved
by a source so pure
that
holds you, protects you
with all it’s might
oh yes 
my loving dear.

Journey through
To
Tomorrow 

Journey from yesterday 

All the world
Is
Waiting 

To give you
Love 

Even on
This present day.

No One Does

December 2, 2024
No One Does - Photo by Patrice

No one does
the same as me 
no one holds in their hearts
the vision, the hope
the same
as
me 

We may be
all together
we may be travelling
on
similar journeys 

But
no one does
whether hard or easy
the same path 
the same
as
me.

Feel The Feeling

November 28, 2024
Feel The Feeling ~ Watercolour by Patrice

Feel the feeling
see it begin to grow
to prosper
be everything you want
all that you need
to know. 

I’ve been there
I felt that feeling
and then
it was gone
where
I don’t really know. 

So feel it
let it prosper
let it grow
til it envelopes you
making it all
you need
never ever letting it go

Can You?

November 27, 2024
Can You? ~ Selfie

Can you be
someone I can count on
can you be? 

My heart says
I hope so 
but
can you? 

Can you sacrifice
everything
for me? 

Take what matters
make it be
all that I need
to become the person
I want to
that one
I need to be. 

This I’m asking you
can you? 

You that live
in my head, my heart 
that one
that has always been
me.

Cry

November 26, 2024
Cry ~ Photo by Patrice

Hear me now
hear
my soul moan and cry 
cause you’re gone
but
you didn’t die 

No 
you are here
you
are there 
and
it makes me sad
makes
me cry

Cause you’re not
with me 
even though 
I can’t deny
you
had good reason 

I said things
that
weren’t nice
I said words
that made you
cry.
