The Line In The Snow

April 21, 2026
Last used April 21/26

The line of snow
tells me
what has been
what
will come again 

But
in
the meantime
the line
will
disappear 
the sun shine

All will be
spring 
all
will be fine

I Am Grateful

April 20, 2026
I Am Grateful ~ Photo by us

I am Grateful
for
a thousand things. 

The people I know
the places I’ve been
the dogs, the cats
horses
I’ve loved
and
who carried me thru
the hard times. 

Some of which
I didn’t win. 

I love you all. 

I’m Grateful
for
those times
when the sun shone 
burst forth
giving warmth, love
not only then
but
now
as we need it. 

I am Grateful.

You Don’t Know

You Don't Know ~ Photo by Patrice

You don’t know 
and
I can’t tell you
what will happen
in
your life
or
mine. 

We must be
optimistic
we must trust
the heavenly
has us in their hands
guiding us
through
the darkest night. 

I’ll say a prayer
for you
please say one
for me
and
may we come together
joined
in
our destinies.

Round, round
the merry-go-round
we go. 

Not a thought
in
the world
just round 
round
the merry 
the merry-go-round.

You Are Not Alone

You Are Not Alone ~ Photo by Patrice

You are not alone
never think
you are 

Hear the bells toll
they ring
no matter where
you are 

So sing
their song of glory
and
future bright 

Cause all of us
together
will survive 

We’ll love
we’ll pull together
knowing we can
rid the world
of
this terrible blight.

The Hope

The Hope ~ Photo by Patrice

The hope I had
the hope
I say
will take me thru
this day, all days. 

I don’t
have to say
a word out loud
or
think the feeling
but
send it
up to the clouds
where rain will bring it
down
upon all creatures
big and small
giving hope
to today
and
forever to us all.

Keep Me Whole, Keep me Sane

Keep Me Whole, Keep me Sane  ~ Photo by Patrice

Keep me whole 
keep me
sane
all the rest I’ll handle
as
I pass down the road
to
the lane. 

I may
not
know everything
I may
be
just a little spoke
in
all the world’s happenings. 

This I know
but
if
you keep me whole
keep
me sane
I’m positive
I can do almost anything.

I Hold You Close ~ Watercolour Painting by Patrice

I hold you close
I hold
you near
nothing will harm you
I am here. 

The world may turn
spin around
but
here we’ll be
on
solid ground.

To See

April 2, 2026
To See ~ Video by Patrice

As I sit here
and
think
my mind comes
to see
all the treasures
I’ve found
those yet to be 

I will not cry
I won’t
plead
cause all I have, need
is
right here
in front of me 

So savour
it
indulge in it
for
you see
sitting here I now see
all I need
to see.
