Green is green is showing thru
Leaves are leaving snow white melting too
Buds budding bringing life
Spring has sprung there is new life.

Destined to travel a winding road
Occasionally rough, sometimes cold.
Staying to the path can be hard
Any presence must be bold.
Looking at that what lives on my path
My feet move to the left, then to the right.
Forward, backward, all is and seems right
As my destiny travels the road to the light.

Sadness is something
Sometimes, I want to be immersed in
Crying, silently
No joy to share
Not a drop, empty, hollow
I just can’t stop the affair.
Sadness does live with me
I allow her in
She stays with me
I don’t love her much
But still she’s been a comfort
Living here, amid my lonely thoughts.
Sadness, she pulls me in
Holding, engulfing me
In a place that’s sad
So lonely
Crying, lying deep within
Becoming such a tragic sin.

Searching for something new
Searching amongst
The breathe of that
That I once knew.
Grasping, holding close
Memories I loved
See them fall away
Replacing now all that yesterday.
Searching for
New memories untold
Searching for a new life
A new mould.
Searching, searching
But no one knows
Nor will they let it be
As of yet, let it be told.

Not
Knowing is nothing
Not
Hearing is something
Not
Feeling is everything.

When all the world whirls round
When a stranger stops and bends to the ground
When the heart feels compassion for those lost, wandering around
When no one knows hunger, anger or bad attitude
When we see magnificence in this body called me
That’s
When we’ll be living heaven on earth
Heaven on earth is where we all should be.
~ Patrice

I didn’t know, I don’t know
How it would go
Could I reframe
From
Laughing, smiling or crying
Hold it close
Or
Let it go
Take a step to the left or
Move
Back to the right
Turn
Go anywhere
But does it seem right
Cause
I didn’t know, I don’t know.

In it’s grip
It’s grip so tight
Hearing ice crack
As limbs fight to stay aloft
In the cruel, bleak night
Sparks shoot into the sky
Wires break, electricity dies.
We wait for help, to understand
A world changed, transformed
Across our little plot of land.
No cell phone works
No lights come on
Except from generators
Throttled up, throttled down.
While chainsaws roar cross the land
We do our best
To clean up, to understand.
