My Heart Aches

My heart aches 
my eyes cry 
my feet walk
a endless lie 

No saviour in sight 
no helping hand 
my remorse
is apparent 

I cannot stand 
on the precipice
of anger 
and
be in command   

No 

But yes 

Yes I can.

My Birthday Is Near, Yours Was Today

October 6, 2021
My Birthday Is Near, Yours Was Today ~ Photo by Patrice

My Birthday is near, yours was today

Without your birth 
My heart wouldn’t beat 
My eyes see
Or
My feet walk beneath
Blue skies and aside green seas 

It’s so long ago
You ceased to be amongst us
But still 
I feel your presence here
Inside/beside of me. 

May we love, be forever
Mother – Daughter 
Far
Far into eternity. 
~ Patrice  

Happy Birthday Mom!

Let Me Lift Up My Soul

August 7, 2018

Old Car ~ Photo by Patrice

Let me lift up my soul
My heart, my eyes
To the bright cerulean sky
Let no heart beat
Without a steady beat
No eye cry for a unbeknown
Love that’s died.

Let my feet walk, run
In rhythm with the flowing sun
Shade my head
With kindness, courtesy
Feel no dread
As my arms embrace
The living grace that surrounds
All living.

Seeking not
A world of anguish
But living
Living without knowing
Sadness, pity
There I’ll live
With the upmost dignity.
~ Patrice
