All We See, Touch And Feel

January 10, 2024
All We See, Touch And Feel ~ Photo by Patrice

You can see 
I can feel
The presence of love
In
The earth, the sky 
All that we see 
Touch and feel.

No more is needed
No more
Will be revealed
For this is all
We need
All we see, touch and feel.

Tired, Feeling Stressed

January 9, 2024
Tired, Feeling Stressed ~ Photo by Patrice

Tired
Feeling stressed
Will the pleasantries
Ever come back
Be expressed? 

Questions asked
Thoughts
Conveyed

Still
I stand here
With
Quietness, calmness
They seem to evade.

Let Me Hold You Close

Let Me Hold You Close ~ Photo by Patrice

Let me
Hold you close

Let my breath and yours
Intertwine 

Let no one
Keep us apart 

Together we’ll travel 
Follow
Our hearts

Never alone 
Never
Be apart.

Memories Last

Memories last ~ Watercolour by Patrice

Memories last
to give us space to remember
those gone from this place.

Holding close, holding long
remembering all the snuggles, caresses
Thru the night so long.

Heartache cries missing those loved
now my heart’s alone
a empty place.

I can’t, won’t forget
your loving soul’s a memory
all that I have left.

The Life I Live

The Life I Live ~ Photo by Patrice

Don’t know what
Will become
Of
The life I live. 

Will I succumb
To
The world around me
Accept 
At all that it offers
All that I need?

I don’t know
What’s to be
But
I do know I can make it
Wonderful, great, most of all
Happy.

In This Day

In This Day ~ Photo by Patrice

In this day of my life
I see the love 
Sweetness, heartache
And
Strife too. 

I also see 
Wonders that bloom
Bring life
To my world. 

I’m surrounded by things
I don’t understand
But
Keep me safe thru this day
I was born to.

Go For Gold, Don’t look Back

January 2, 2024
Go For Gold, Don't look Back - Photo by Patrice

Go for gold
Don’t look back
The future is yours
Even if
You go off track. 

The way is there
Briars may disrupt your way
You could get stuck
But
Know help is coming 
It’s on his way. 

Don’t look back
Don’t regret and cry
It happened
You made it here
You survived.

No Matter What Happens To Me

No Matter What Happens To Me ~ Pastel Art by Patrice

No matter what happens to me 
the world will turn on into its destiny 
flowers will bloom, bees be busy 
nothing matters except the going 
the moving from what has 
to what will be. 

Save your breath for breathing 
your words to speak adoration 
of the heaven that has given all 
just for you 
asking nothing in return 
only wanting to be.

Closely, Slowly I Come To You

December 21, 2023
Closely, Slowly I Come To You ~ illustration by Patrice

Closely, slowly
I come to you
I feel your breath 
Breathing
Breathing on me
All around
you. 

I see your eyes looking
Past me
Looking to a future
With
Or
Without me? 

I can’t answer
This question
For
You. 

I can only answer
I want 
Need
To spend
The rest of my life
In this world
With you.

The Choice Is Yours

December 19, 2023
The Choice Is Yours ~ Watercolour by Patrice

The choice is yours
The time is right
Don’t hesitate
Make yourself extremely clear
If it’s wrong
Or
If it’s right
Makes no difference
It’s yours today, tonight.
