Nobody Knows Nor Sees

January 21, 2025
Nobody Knows Nor Sees ~ Illustration by Patrice

Nobody knows
nor
can they
see
the world 
exactly
the same
as
me.

All You Want

January 20, 2025
All You Want ~ Photos by Patrice

You can have
all you want
everything you need
to be
that one
you were meant
to be. 

But
only, only
if
you believe
in
kindness 
love and sanctity.

You Haven’t

January 16, 2025
You Haven't ~ Photo by Patrice

You haven’t been
haven’t seen
all the beauty surrounding you
surrounding me 

Still it’s there 

Validating
love
unconditionality 

May you
in the spring, the fall
or
the winter bare
see this beauty 

See it
all around 
holding you, keeping you
showing
that the world
sees you
and
it cares.

Me

Me ~ Photo by Brent

Can you be
me? 

I don’t think so 

Only
me can be 

Be
me. 

Nor
can I be 

Be
you.

You Heard Me

January 14, 2025
You Heard Me ~ Photo by Patrice

You heard me
and
I heard you say
words I needed 
needed
to get through
this day.

You heard me
and
I heard you say
what
I must have 
to be
fulfilled, happy
as
I travel on
make
my way

Let Me

Let Me ~ Photo by Patrice

Let me
be
at peace
in
harmony 

Let me
see
the grace
of
God 

Let me feel  
the hand
of
strength
that holds me
guides me 

Let me
be
all I can 

Let me.

For The Sake

January 9, 2025
For The Sake  ~ Illustration by Patrice for the Educational Publisher, Ginn and Company

For the sake of someone
you love

For the sake of the world
you live
in

Take care of everything

Be a kind, generous 
gracious, living human being
killing
only misspelled words
nothing living
breathing 

For the sake
of
joy

For the sake of being

Live your life with no regrets

Live it
with tender, loving
feelings.

You Can, Can You

January 7, 2025
You Can, Can You ~ Photo by Patrice

You can hear me
you can see me
but
can you feel
my heart beating? 

Can you
be alongside me
and
know what I’m thinking?

Can you?

Can you do
all these things
can you?

I’m just asking.

No More Will I Be

January 6, 2025
No More Will I Be ~ Watercolour by Patrice

No more 

Will I be
that one who stands back
quietly 

No, not me 

I will show who I am
who I want to
who 
I’m going to be 

Cause you see
if I don’t
no one will know me 

I won’t be. 
~ Patrice
