Couldn’t Be

August 13, 2025

Couldn't Be ~ Painting by Patrice

You
couldn’t be
what I needed
you
to be

No
you were not

But
was I what
you craved
asked me
to be?

I think not

Because
I
too
couldn’t be.
~ Patrice

I Have Made It

June 7, 2022

1st in Trial Award ~ Me and my Great Faldo

I have made it
even thou there were those

Who said

It won’t be so
couldn’t be, would never be

Hear their calls of criticism
hear their snorts of disbelief

Saying

I can’t do this
this that I know I need too
know I can do
can succeed and complete.
~ Patrice
