Patrice's avatarPatrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

Let me be free
Free to accept life as it should be
Free to be the one I want to be
Free
Free to be me.

Hearing All The Noises

July 6, 2017

Golden in Trouble ~ Illustration by Patrice for Dogs In Canada Magazine

Hearing all the noises
Bashing in my head
No time to see the goodness
Only misery, loneliness and dread.

Honestly don’t know
What became of my lighthearted soul
Mired down in stress
Burdened with things as dark as coal.

No one will help me out
No one really cares
All I hear is bashing, crashing in my head
Filled with misery, loneliness and  dread.

When Memories Are Created

June 22, 2017

Siegrun and her beloved dogs ~ Painting by Patrice

When memories are created
And souls felt
Nothings’ forsaken
For a journey been taken
That’ll lead to a place
Filled with nothing but
Love, love.

Truly Needed

June 20, 2017

Tracking Bunny - Illustration by Patrice

Truly heartfelt
Truly needed
One footstep
On life’s path
Followed
Heeded
By another
And
Another
Truly needed.

I Know

June 13, 2017

Pen Ink Drawing of an Owl ~ Illustration by Patrice for B.C. Central Credit Union

 

 

 

How
Do I know
The right is the way.

When
Will I be happy
Just to stay?

Now
Is the answer
Past has gone away.

Forever
Is never
This I know today.

Write

June 6, 2017

Write
What you need to.

Write
What you feel too
Doesn’t matter if it
Never sees daylight
Only known on pages
Of a book closed tight.

Write
Let it out
Let it be recorded on
The slate that makes you be
What you’ve become
You see.
~ Patrice

Thee

Shepherd and Bouvier playing ~ Illustration by Patrice

Delicately
I embrace thee

Softly
I caress thee

While with my whole heart

I unconditionally
Love thee.

Knows

May 16, 2017

Spike & Grinch ~ Watercolour Art by PatriceI sit here and hope nothing will happen
Knowing well that is what will.

Not always the best but assured it will rest
In the arms of a heart that knows all
Knows best.

Chaos And Wonder

May 1, 2017

Safe and Strong ~ Illustration by Patrice

 

 

Chaos and wonder
Are displayed
Reaching for justice
Dragons are slayed
No one comes forth
Nothing delayed
Anguish is vanquished
Honour laid
In beautiful heaps
At someone’s grave.
~ Patrice
