Every Morning

April 18, 2018

Every morning I open my book
Writing
The words given to me.

Every morning I think about living
Life
Free with courtesy.

Every morning I see
A different morning
One
I make it to be.

In my dream
I see fortune full of destiny
Mine to have
Mine to be
Let me begin living
This my dream
In that destiny
I see.

When I Look Outside

May 29, 2017

When I look outside
My heart does beat
The pressure rise
A world there where all
That breathe must survive.

Beauty, radiance
Seen crystal clear
Waiting for
Another bloom
To appear.

Times can be tough
Rarely an easy ride
Still all enjoy
They do survive.

This I see
When I look outside.

Asking Why

November 16, 2016

Longhaired Kitty ~ Watercolour Painting by Patrice

Always asking why
Not knowing
Why I ask
Or just what
The reason is.

Looking round
I see
So much to be
Thankful for
For me.

Can’t understand
Why
Why I’m always
Wondering
Asking why.

Muhammad Ali

June 6, 2016

Muhammad Ali died yesterday
Such a glorious life gone
Gone yesterday.

We never met yet I know
He did so much to make my world
His world a better place to stay
Muhammad Ali died
He died yesterday.

May you soar like that butterfly
May you sting, sting just like a bee
For in my heart I see, your soul, your heart
Now rise, soar oh so gracefully
Muhammad Ali.

The Bottom Falls Out

February 22, 2016

The bottom falls out
That’s when I see
The dirty truth
That’s been hiding
From me.

I didn’t know
I couldn’t see
All that sordid, disgusting
Lying
Cheating on me.

Now I’m free
I can see
To help those in the same state
That once held
Imprisoned me.

In The Heart

November 11, 2015

St. Lucia Fishing Boats ~ Photo by Patrice

In the heart of my distress
I find an ark of happiness
Ferrys me to a life
In heaven’s image
No heartache, nor strife
In my dreams I seek, I see
This hallowed place I saw
I seek.
