I write the words that come
I see them in their entirety
some are in colour
others grey
altogether they make
the words I write
I say.
Tomorrow
they’ll be different
they’ll say something I never thought of
not til that instant
when they came and I wrote
wrote what they told me
to say.

Holy Smokes, Holy Cow
The world it turns
It revolves
But
Not around me
No
Not at all.
It may tomorrow
Or
The day after that
And
You know
I’m not sure
Where it turned
Way far back.
The only thing
I do know,
I see
Is that it turns
And
I take the ride
The ride for free.

Horrors be
can’t take them
away
away from the head
they stay
mentally.
The body will heal
but
the spirit, the soul
keep
those things into
eternity.
We know we must
must let them
go
throw them away
don’t let them
crush
your spirit
your kind soul.
Today, just today
let them go
no more in your head
to fester
create dread
let them go, let them go
instead.

Crises come
then
they go
Hold
on tight
Stay
the course
Go
with the flow.

I will survive
I will breathe and be alive
I will rejoice
I will have a choice in decisions made
I will laugh and cry
I will live then die
But
I will
I will survive.

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.

Fruits of my labour
Seem to be
Consequences
I didn’t
Foresee
Maybe tomorrow
I’ll be
In the midst
Of another day
Straight from
History.

@ Patrice Clarkson – 2021
Hold me close
Hold me where I can see
All the beauty
Enveloping
You and me.
Never let me go
Never let me be
All alone
Without you close
Near to me.
Our hearts beat
Together
Our lives are intertwined
Let it be forever
Forever til
The end of time.

I have known, you’ve seen
Beauties of the universe
Soft, gentle
And pristine.
May they flow
Thru tomorrow
Out to all
Directions in-between.
May their
Gentleness and kindness
be all we feel
All we need.
~ Patrice

See it happen
Feel it be
Nothing is by accident
Only
Just as it should be.
