A home is a home
no matter the width, the size
treasured forever
lived in from birth
to the time you die.
Feel the gentle breathing
of timbers and frame
holding strong
in winter winds, torrential rains.
All are welcomed
with love, no despair
come
step into this home.
There you’ll share
laughs, great food
and
a glass of sweet cheer.

I have heard and think
it is to be
a world full of greatness, love
and most of all
beauty.
Let me see this world
let me experience it’s beauty
let me live in peace
and most of all
loving harmony.

When I look out to sea
I see you looking
looking back over
just at me
The waves roll in
and
back out again
bringing with them
a message from overseas
a message
you sent just for me
In my thoughts I touch your lips
say words of love
then send them
on the wind
over water, overseas
to you with love
just from me.

The heart is cold
And
Does not beat
With love
Just full of hate
Anger, blatant lies
No
Not love
See it fester
Boil over
Beating, beating
Not with love.

Close by and near to me
The warmth of your body
Comforts, protects me
Gives me time
To see
The answer to all the questions
Filling me.
Then my world
Too
Will be filled with love
Unconditionally.

My Birthday is near, yours was today
Without your birth
My heart wouldn’t beat
My eyes see
Or
My feet walk beneath
Blue skies and aside green seas
It’s so long ago
You ceased to be amongst us
But still
I feel your presence here
Inside/beside of me.
May we love, be forever
Mother – Daughter
Far
Far into eternity.
~ Patrice
Happy Birthday Mom!

Feeling the movement
feeling
the love
Moved to emotion
blanketed
in love
Vowed to protect
forever
with love .
Maybe tomorrow
I’ll see more to be done
thinking, believing
in love.

A day to reflect
a day to stay focused
on tomorrow
making it better than yesterday.
The hurts, wrongs and harms
done in the name
of a God
that would not condone
such tragedies in anyway.
Fill your heart with love
fill your soul with remorse
for the small
innocent children lying dead
in shallow, unmarked graves
undiscovered
til just yesterday.
They had done no wrong
snatched
from their mothers and fathers
one terrible
fateful day.
Send support
for survivors that made it thru
endured torture, harm unmitigated pain
for no reason
not ever, not never
in those horrible years
terrible days.

I have seen you
your love, honesty
and
virtue.
Knowing
that in-between
are the other things
that
no one wants to see
feel or do.
All
are what makes up
an individual
a life, a soul
and
you.
I have seen you
and
I hope you’ve
seen me
too.
~ Patrice

Fulfil the heart
the soul
follow your dreams
to the end
of
the storied road.
Pause
let this journey sink in
soak your soul
in
the many varied stories
you’ll experience
be told.
Fill
your heart with love
let it be carried
forever
in your soul.
