My Heart

My Heart ~ Photo by Patrice

My heart

My heart
Ticks
It tocks

My heart
Loves
And then not

My heart
Lives

My heart
Brings life
And then

My heart
It
Stops.

Angry, Hurt Are The Feelings

June 10, 2020

Angry, hurt are the feelings
Racing thru my head
Why would people be that way
Can’t accept such treatment
In my heart, my head

Seething, feeling angry
But I’ll try to forgive and say
Goodbye to such
That make life an unholy place
No one wants today.

When I Find The Lost

When I find the lost that I knew
I’ll smile
And let my heart
Smile too.

A Million Miles Away

May 20, 2020

Sun Flower ~ Photo by Patrice

A million miles away
The sun shines
No matter
The time of day.

My heart must bring
That sun from far
To my day, my walk
My way.

Holding close all
That’s good
All I need to make
It thru today.

From a million miles away
The sun shines
Shines on me
As I’m on my way.

Oh My Heart, My Heart

February 10, 2020

Trashed Feeder ~ Photo by Patrice

When the world fell apart
I was filled with despair
Crying
Oh my heart, my heart
No other saw or moved
To employ saving grace
All was destroyed
Oh my heart, my heart.

Then the sun shone
The rains came
My heart heard
A sweet, sweet refrain
Crowds rejoiced, laughed
Coming close to heaven
And my heart sang
Oh my heart, my heart
Once again.

I Have Seen

Girl and Dog at the Beach ~ Photo by Patrice

I have seen you are with me
You have been my sole companion
On this trip, this journey.

Never alone, my heart, my soul
Feel your gentle breath
Breathing.

At peace, I am feeling
Your hand in mine leading
Keeping.

My Heart Beats Soft

January 17, 2019

Mr. T and Me ~ Photo by us

Slowly hearing
My heart beats soft
Taking in the beauty
Beneath, within
And
Aloft.

No words spoken
No words need said
For all is explained
In a beat so soft
Inside
Instead.

Can I Venture To The Past?

Can I venture to the past?
Relax and enjoy things seen
Fix what wasn’t right
Move forward
To this time I live in now
Confident
My heart will no longer hunger
For what has been and passed.

Can I?
Dare I venture to the past?

Do I Tell The Stories

November 7, 2018

Connie's Airedales ~ Watercolour by Patrice

Do I tell the stories
I know
Or do I let them go.

My heart doesn’t know
The way
The way I should go.

My spirit tells me
Feel the earth
Breathe the skies.

And the beings that live
Purely
Will guide you, they’ll never lie.

My Heart

September 26, 2018

Diva and Lise Painting ~ Watercolour by Patrice

My heart rules, my heart says
Be the best and then leave the rest
Don’t look for bad nor tolerate those
That bring it.

My heart hears all kinds of things
Water crashing on distant shores
A baby bird looking for some more
The calling of a lonesome wolf.

My heart feels the touch of necessity
A coffee warm, so tasty
The gentle caress from one
So loved.

My heart does all these things
While beating life and breathe
Into everything.
~ Patrice
