Remember Me?

February 5, 2019

Remember me?
Remember when?

When the world was round
The sky a vibrant blue
And you and I were love so true

Remember?
Remember me?

I remember you.

Looking Back, I See Ahead

February 4, 2019

Aggy and the Wall

Looking Back, I see ahead
The twists and turns
I must not fear nor dread
The world will come
And be before my feet
It’s up to me to go forward
To find, to seek.

When your heart is sore
Your tears won’t dry
Remember
You’re not alone
We hear your cries.

Remember too
All who we’ve said goodbye
Are with us still
Only running now
Where angels fly.
~ Patrice

Quietly I Walk

January 31, 2019

My Feet ~ Photo by Patrice

Slowly, quietly I walk along the path
The winds and curves are treacherous
Stones and rocks stand out to trip
But finding soft ground
I tread the gentle path
For the entire world can be seen
In this winding way
My own living way, my lifelong path.

I Feel Life

January 30, 2019

Footprints In the Sand ~ Photo by Patrice

I feel life
I feel the ebb moving on
Moving ahead
Thru from the past
To the edge of all being.

Stopping there
Somewhere in the future
Blocking none
Holding nothing back
moving on
Always, always right on track.

How Do I Know

How do I know, know what to do
How do I know
Please tell me the path
The best way
The right things to do.

I’m not alone, can’t be alone
For everything, all that I know
I know you’ve told me
Everything
I’ve needed to know to do.

What Has Happened?

Filtered Sunlight ~ Photo by PatriceWhat has happened?
What will be today?
No one telling’
Just moving, moving on their way.

Couldn’t hear directions
Couldn’t see the way
Couldn’t, couldn’t remember my journey
From that other day.

Must trust the Master
Must believe, believe he’ll guide me
On this that is
My journey’s way.

Everything Doesn’t Seem

January 24, 2019

Ice Storm Aftermath ~ Photo by Patrice

Everything
Doesn’t seem
What its suppose to be
Everything is chaotic, messy
Heading
For a catastrophe.

Now
I come on the scene
And what is my job
My destiny
To clean up this mess
Straighten out this disastrophe?

Or
To be just happy
Just me
And the chaos, messy
Will settle
Be what its suppose to be.

Snow Falls Silently Down

January 23, 2019

Winter Snow ~ Photo by Patrice

Snow falls silently down
Snowploughs roar
Spreading sand, salt
Across roads far around.

Oblivious birds sit in trees
Hunkered down
A fox yips, a crow cries
All says
A winter’s day is on the rise.

I Do Remember

January 22, 2019

My Mom ~ Photo by Patrice

I do remember
Your loving grace
The innocent smile upon your face
Your strong embrace.

I do remember
Shelter in a troubled world
Your ability of slowing down
A hectic pace.

I do remember
A simple kind gesture
Sweetness on your face
A peaceful existence.

All this I do
I do remember.
~ Patrice
