See Me Be

March 29, 2022
See Me Be ~ Illustration by Patrice

See me be 
The best
I can possibly be 

No sacrifice 
No sleepless nights 
No what if’s
or
Buts 

Just 
Just the best
Me 
I can be.

Hoping For A Way

March 28, 2022
Hoping For A Way ~ Photo by Patrice

Hoping for a way to belong 
belong to the day 
I see
unfolding 

Reach the morning light 
caress softly the fleeting sunset 
feel the rain 
let the wind blow 
empty
hollow thoughts away 
as
I embrace the magnificence
of an ever-changing
landscape 

This is where
I want to stand 
my feet firmly planted 
belonging 
in
this day, this world 
this land.

Clouds Part, Sun Rises

Clouds part, sun rises
Filling all hearts
With peace
Warmth and gratitude.

Joy comes to mind
As day winds down
Folding into night
Star studded.

Holding tight
Precious souls
In their solitary walk
Through life.

I Seek But Will I Find

March 24, 2022
I Seek But Will I Find ~ Photo by Patrice

I seek but will I find 
The lost, hidden 
The divine. 

No path is shown 
No way is clear 
Trudging onward 
Holding on to thoughts 
Of what may be
Near. 

Maybe passed by
Shrugged off
Not
Realizing 

Sometimes
Good things 
Stand 
Being there for me
To embrace 

Hiding
In
Plain sight.

Feeling, Remembering

March 23, 2022
Feeling, Remembering ~ Photo by Patrice

Feeling, remembering 
seeing
touching things from the past
bringing them 
to the present. 

Projecting them 
to
the future
to be part of my world
forever 
forever to be.

Solely Hope

Solely hope
That I do come to see 
The way 
The light of all 
All I want to do and be.

A Sadness Deep Inside

March 21, 2022
A Sadness Deep Inside ~ Watercolour by Patrice

A sadness deep inside 
festering, crying 
pleading
to be let out 
let outside. 

To be free 
to wander, find solace 
be happy 
come alive 

This is all 
that
sadness asks 
all’s needed 
for that sadness deep 
deep inside.

I’m Not Sure

March 18, 2022

Patrice's avatarPatrice’s Art & Poetry Blog

I’m not sure what I’ll write
Something about yesterday
Maybe something
That will occur tonight.

No rules in place
No sayings to follow
Just hear that soft voice speak
And my writing, my words
They follow.

For Heaven’s Sake

March 17, 2022
For Heaven's Sake ~ Illustration by Patrice for Dogs In Canada Magazine

For heaven’s sake
you are blessed
driven
to be your best.

For heaven’s sake
don’t listen
don’t wait to be
forgiven.

For heaven’s sake
know it’s not your fault
heaven knows
and
heaven has
forgiven.

Holding On And Holding Fast

March 16, 2022
Holding Go And Holding Fast ~ Photo by Patrice

Holding on and holding fast
Not letting go.

Til the earth is beneath my feet  
The sand whispering in my ear  
And wind blowing too and fro.

Then
And only then
Will I let go.  
~ Patrice
