The Words

October 15, 2015

The words sit silent
Waiting to take a place
On a page, part of a sentence
A paragraph
Or just fill an empty space.

Never know what they are to be
Where they’re coming from
Placed upon the page
Uttered
From a pulpit
Graced by the shinning sun.

No matter, there they come
No longer waiting
The words have found their purpose
Their place, on a page, a paragraph
A voice
Greeting the morning sun.
~ Patrice

Succumb To Nothingness

October 14, 2015

Succumb to nothingness
Drop into the abyss
Slender is the chance
I will survive all this.

Tolerance doesn’t know
Where to step in
Or even if
It still exists.

My sadness knows all this
Crying out the name
The name of one
Who can change, change this.
~ Patrice

Sometimes

October 13, 2015

Sometimes the world will cry
Sometimes, sometimes

Sometimes the rain will wash away
The hurt, the anger and the pain
Sometimes, sometimes

Sometimes I need to say
I’ll cry but only for today
Sometimes, sometimes

Sometimes

It was the BEST!

The Purple Hills Art & Heritage Society’s

‘Artist on Location Show‘

last weekend was a success!

Art, Prints and merchandise were sold and new friendships were forged

I would like to say ‘Thanks’ to all of you who came out to support us
and on Saturday, braved that nasty wind.

Also the volunteers and organizers who made it run so smoothly
my fellow artists,
the best being Victoria Denoga Huntley who shared
Ray’s Place
with me and was supportive, is absolutely talented and just so much fun!
And of course
Tony Fry for giving us his venue, Ray’s Place for a few days

– Thanks! –

Agonizing, Difficult Regret

October 8, 2015

Agonizing, difficult regret

Struggling to understand

Just what I did to regret

For no soft heart opens up

Or holds me close

Only solitude, loneliness

Are at my command.

Life of near and far away

Feels trodden upon

No joy to lift me up

No smile that helps me stand

Only agonizing, difficult regret

Struggling to understand.
~ Patrice

Gone Into The Wonder

October 7, 2015

Gone into the wonder of the moment
Delving into the presence I feel
No heart beats just a moment
No heart can repeal
The sound lost from the moment
It’s just a wonderful wonder of a moment
Allowing me to feel.
~ Patrice
