Building begun
Changes made
Thoughts on what will be clear
Beyond the haze.

Turn to the right side of life
Feel strength in midst of strife
Dedicate your life to those that need.

Feel life breathe.

Tell Me When, Tell Me Why

Tell me when, tell me why
Please, before I die.

Don’t want to cry, don’t want to die
Please tell me when, please tell me why.

I Journey To My Home

May 11, 2015

Teddy at the farm ~ Photo by Patrice

I journey to my home
The place where I was born.

Memories past, life I did before
Some heartache, some laughing then and now.

I journey to the place
I was born, I journey home.

Meddle

Meddle
In someone’s thoughts
Stick
Your fingers in someone’s dreams
Sadden
By the way they don’t listen away
Maybe
It’s time to keep your mouth shut
Your opinion
To your own self, it may work for you
But
Only you and you alone.

Nothing hurts nor contains
I will sing a sweet, melodious refrain.

There I Am

April 23, 2015

Rising Fiddle Head ~ Photo by Patrice

There I am in my robe
Watching closely as the earth disrobes
All it’s ugly, nasty things
Rising up in beauty
Filled with summer and with spring.
Winter’s cold, bitter hate
Melted here, no distaste
Only warm, fulfilling beams
Creating more lovely dreams.

Bless the ground I stand upon
Know it gives me faith true and strong
Trusting I’ll be here long after
Spring flowers fade and go
But memories of what has been
Or yet to come
Will hold my own sheltering robe so tight
That I know I will be safe
On earth’s soft ground tonight.

Suddenly, Suddenly

April 21, 2015

Suddenly my heart
Goes out coming in
To home and love.

Suddenly my mind
Understands life
Suddenly, suddenly.

Liar, Liar

Costa Rican Raccoon Photo by Brent

Liar, liar
Don’t know how
Don’t know where
Won’t listen, nor see
Liar, liar
Standing in front of me.

Wonder

April 14, 2015

Wonder is what I’ve got
As I reach, reach out and see
The beauty, the majesty of all living things
Knowing they are all part of me.
