You Find Me

January 6, 2026
You Find Me ~ Illustration by Patrice

You find me
I try and find you
together we’ll muster
all our thoughts
and
really make it through 

Our minds will create
a space
so pure, so true 

Our arms will
embrace one another
bring us
to a world full of kindness
honesty
everything needed
to be best
of me
of
you.

 Soldiers Soldier ~ illustration by Patrice

Soldiers soldier 
lovers love 
Peace, tranquillity
come to those that soldier on
with love 

Make me not
one
that believes
not in love 

Make me a soldier
in that army conquering
hatred, prejudice
giving only 
unconditional love.

I Treasure

December 11, 2025
I Treasure ~ Illustration by Patrice for publisher, Ginn & Company

I treasure all
you have to say
I know your words
speak truth
no matter what
comes
what goes away 

I will listen
hope to understand
the depth
the meaning
of
those words 

You speak
you say.

I Take No Pleasure

December 9, 2025
I Take No Pleasure ~ Illustration by Patrice

I take no pleasure
in
what you’ve said
or
done 

It is
my journey
I must concentrate
begin
get done 

Yours
is
yours 

We may travel
on the path
as
one 

But 

In
the final ending
we’ll be alone
we’ll be
just
one.

Me ~ Illustration by Patrice

After deep soul searching
Searching deep
Within
The depth of
Me 

I found 

Found I could be
The one
The one and only one
The only one of
Me.

I Am Grateful

I Am Grateful ~ Illustration by Patrice

I am grateful
for
all those
that
cared 
loved me
and 
stood beside me
when
I faltered
fell down.

I See The Anger

July 15, 2025
I See The Anger ~ Illustration by Patrice

I see the anger
the fury 

Why do I let
this
envelope me? 

Struggle to be free
to be
happy 

Yet all I see
is
sadness, madness 

Scaring me.

Holding My Heart

March 25, 2025
Holding My Heart ~ Illustration by Patrice

You’re holding
my heart, my soul 

Please
never let go 

For I’ll be adrift
in
a sea of heartache, misery
seeing no light
no sanctity 

This I know, I see 

So I’m sending you 
my love
for all
that you’ve done
done
just for me.

The Gentle Soul

March 18, 2025
The Gentle Soul ~ Illustration by Patrice

The gentle soul
who resides inside of me
takes care
to be
kind, pleasing to all
that
she perceives
to
need her care, her comfort
all the things
that
help someone thrive
and
be
the best they can 

That’s what
the gentle soul
inside
of me
she strives
to be.

Hear The Heart Call

March 5, 2025
Hear The Heart Call ~ Illustration by Patrice

Hear the heart call
beckoning all
to feel
love in our minds, our hearts
our souls 

Let it be cherished
held close
forever
never losing what fills us
with
sweet kindness. 

Let it be
Let it be what
our heart calls.
