I Need

June 14, 2017

I need a coffee
I need a time
When
Heaven and earth
Are in sync
In rhyme.

One Crisis Is Over

June 12, 2017

Flintstone House - Photo by Patrice

One crisis is over
Another begins
Accept the challenge
Then begin.

Take note
Of the notes
The actions
The end.

 Don’t worry
If failure succeeds
You can always start
Begin again.

Peeking Thru The Atmosphere

June 8, 2017

Peeking thru the atmosphere
Quietly lying on the grass
Feeling movement in the earth
I’m one with all
At last, at last.

Making Things Sane

June 7, 2017

Organizing, adjusting
Making things sane
Getting control
Of a life
Without laying any blame.

This is my course
My way
To climb to the top
Of a world
That changes everyday.

Spins Round

June 1, 2017

Bull Riding ~ Photo by Patrice

Spins round and around
Holding on tight
Trying my best
Not to be thrown
To the ground.

The future is past
A present not found
I grasp, I grasp
But can’t touch a place
Not spinning round.

Sun Shines Bright

May 31, 2017

Sunlight on Water Photo by Patrice

Sun shines bright
Holding life
With all it’s might
Watch it unfold
As the day goes by
Nothing by accident
Nothing passed by
An insect crawls
A hawk flies
Someone laughs
Watching
A blissful sun rise.

Heartache Breaks

May 30, 2017

Catlady's House coming down - Photo by Patrice

Heartache breaks
And sobs come out
Sadness reigns
There is no doubt
My world will change
I must
Sort it out.

When I Look Outside

May 29, 2017

Bearded Iris ~ Photo by Patrice

When I look outside
My heart does beat
The pressure rise
A world there where all
That breathe must survive.

Beauty, radiance
Seen crystal clear
Waiting for
Another bloom
To appear.

Times can be tough
Rarely an easy ride
Still all enjoy
They do survive.

This I see
When I look outside.

Sadness Fails

Sadness fails 
Crashes 
Hear
The wails. 

Monster crawls 
Full of regret 
Finally getting 
What he should
Get. 

No remorse 
Pity none 
Turn the page 
Forget
The rage. 

Sadness can
No more 
Be part of
Hate.

Cold And Freezing Rain

May 25, 2017

Deep Freeze ~ Photo by Patrice

Cold and freezing rain
Falls from the sky
Falls
Taking no blame.

Only pours it’s heart out
Letting drops fall
Again and again
In cold, freezing rain.
