Still Silence Stands Quietly By

July 25, 2014

Water Lilies ~ Photo by Patrice

Still silence stands quietly by
While my heart sings a tender lullaby
Strands of caring gently caress my soul
Now no more alone
My spirit reaches and it soars.

Why Or What Can’t Be

July 24, 2014

Saluki ~ watercolour by Patrice

Why or what can’t be the question I ask not now
Just shouldn’t be.

How won’t work
Just couldn’t be.

Therefore I stand still and wait for the force to
Just tell me.

There across the table

Opportunity

Stands

Smiling sweetly

He beckons

He commands.

I Was In Your Place

July 16, 2014

I was in your place, I saw your face
But
You didn’t recognize me.

In another life we laughed and cried
‘Friends for Life’ we said that’s how it would be
But
Now I see you don’t recognize me
I’m just a face in a ordinary place
And you walked right pass me
No ‘Friends for Life’
What a state it has come to be.

Just the other day I was in your place
Saw your face
But
You didn’t recognize me.

If I Need To Write

July 15, 2014

Starting Points in Math illustration by Patrice for publisher, Ginn & Company

If I need to write
I will write.

If I need to cry
I will cry.

If I need to see why I pray
I’ll find why I need to.

I Had Forgot What A Magical Place She Is

July 14, 2014

I had forgot what a magical place she is
Where wolves soar and hens dance jigs
Where dogs talk and cats read lips
Where dreams are real and sit right beside of you
Ah yes, her place is where magical roars
It is. It is.

I Used To Write Most Every Night

July 10, 2014

I used to write most every night
About what was my passion
My insight.

Now, tonight I collect my thoughts
Watch the sky
Watching planes fly by.

Can’t
Can’t write no wondrous things
Can’t bring myself to find passion
In anything. ~ Patrice
