We have seen the unholy light
Glaring red on the darkest night
No reprieve, no delight
Misery, forgotten mercy
No saviour
Til the morning light.
Then there, the beauty unfolds
It’s saving grace holds
Helping those
Lost, misplaced
Keeping safe, shielding life
Protecting all that see
Her holy light
We have seen the unholy light
We have gone beyond it’s fierce grip
To bask in love all the loving day
Protected
Throughout the darkest night
Til rising, morning light.

Somewhere hidden
In the depths of life
Lives
A journey beyond belief
Filled
With delight.
Dive deep within
Feel
That life
Make it yours
No regrets, doubts
Nor respite.

Living in the
Quiet
Listening to the solitude
Feeling all emotions
Surface.
Maybe tomorrow will be
Riotous
But for now living today
Where all is
Quiet.

In the forest I found
A house, a home
So profound.
No windows to shed light
But a cozy home, a place for respite
Adorned with flowers pink and white
A bell to toll when someone
Strange comes lurking
Late at night.
A front door I can’t find
Yet welcome are all
Who poke their head inside.
May you see this house
So profound
May you enjoy all it has to give
There in the forest
This house, this home
That I found.

Totally in the dark
Absolutely unable to see
Whether the world will
Come and hold me
Keep me safe
Or
Throw me to the wolves
Surrounding me
Could it be
The wolves will be
My saviour
Surrounding, protecting me
Totally in the dark
Absolutely unable to see.

Hoping to see joy in all humanity
As we transverse thru our lives
Holding each close
No tears cried
No hope denied
Just care and love in all our lives.

Why Have I
Listened to the wind
Blowing in my ear?
Why have I
Tried to give back the gentleness
Life has served?
Why have I
Cried when a sad song
Comes on?
Why have I
Not always felt
That I belonged?
The answers to these questions
I don’t know nor can I tell
For they’re written on a slate
Hidden deep and very well.
~ Patrice
