Feel The Presence

May 27, 2021
Feel The Presence ~ Photo by Patrice

Feel the presence 
feel the rays of sunshine 
happiness and gratitude 
infiltrate each waking moment 
everyday. 

Breathe it in 
wash away
dirty anger not needed
not felt nor experienced 
no, not in any way.

Only I

April 15, 2020

Face Study ~ illustration by Patrice

Only I

Know the reason why

Only I

Sit in a place filled
With loving gratitude
And grace

Only I

Feel the presence
Of a spirit so strong
Knowing and forgiving

Only I

Is who I see
When I look in the mirror
And see

Only me.

Not Alone

September 17, 2018

Wood Smiles and Sad ~ Photo by Patrice

Can’t believe I’m not alone
For there at my side
A presence stays
While I live, work, love, play
And some day, die.

Not alone, never to be
My journey directed
Choreographer, just for me.

I am loved no matter what
I have a place to stand
My back protected
My heart in loving hands.

My protector, confidant, spirit guide
May be those
Who have already lived
And now, have died.

Not that I care from where
They come
Just to feel that presence
At my side.

Will make my road
Smoother, a joy to live
Oh, such a ride!
