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.

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

January 13, 2025
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.

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.

Needs To Be Said

January 2, 2025
Needs To Be Said ~ Photo by Patrice

I write 
I say the words that
I believe 
needs to be said.

I love the people of the world  
only wish
they would not
be so intent on living
not thinking
how destructive
each footstep we take
can kill, eliminate
destroy living souls
who’ve done nothing
nothing but try to be
to live.

Take care to tread lightly
as you can
and
together we’ll make
the world a wondrous place
where we live
in
blissful harmony.

That’s all, that’s it
I’ve said
I believe 
what
needs to be said.

Trying To Be

January 1, 2025
Trying To Be ~ Photo by Patrice

Trying to remember
trying to be
the best
I can possibly be 

Living with 
No remorse, no sadness 
no 
not for me 

For I will show 
the sweet, the lovely
only that 
that part of me.

Holding On, Holding Tight

Holding On, Holding Tight ~ Photo by Patrice

Holding on, holding tight 
Trying desperately to make it 
Thru the day into night. 

No one to help, no one to say 
Words of wisdom 
Nothing on this day. 

Where will I be, what will I say 
In a world where I’m on my own 
For today.

Everywhere

Seeing tomorrow with pleasure
feeling joy and happiness

Everywhere.

The Blue, Blue Sky

December 9, 2024
Last used Dec. 9/24

You can find me
close by
not far from the hills
under
the blue, blue sky. 

Let me show you
all the magic
I find
on that hill
and
far, far away
up in
the blue, blue sky.

The Telltale Signs

The Telltale Signs ~ Photo by Patrice

The telltale signs are here 
And 
Then they go 
Hidden deep beneath 
The ever flow.
