Wondering What

October 27, 2016

Dark Thoughts ~ Photo by Patrice

Wondering what

What
What is wrong

Feeling that

Something
Something is wrong

Hearing in my head

Deny
Deny there is

Nothing
Nothing wrong

Wondering what

What
This feeling is

So strong
So very strong.

Seeing The Answer

October 26, 2016

Seeing the answer brings
Soft acceptance of everything
No wondering
Or asking anything.

All there in front of me
To embrace or leave behind
It’s nothing.

The answer comes
Bringing with it my heart’s question
About everything.

The Snow Flies Quietly Down

October 25, 2016

Snow Storm ~ Photo by Patrice

Sometimes
The snow flies quietly down
Melting before
It touches frozen ground.

No thunder clap
Heralds the falling down
No flash of blazing light
Lets us know.

No roar or rush
Of coming water no
Just snow
Snow quietly falling down.

My Thoughts Race

October 24, 2016

Running First ~ Photo by Patrice

My thoughts race
I pace the floor
Could it be
Could I possibly
Have more?

My heart is open
It feels good fortune’s
Gentle rays
Come flooding in.

My head spins
My ears roar
My thoughts race
As my jaw drops
Beneath my chin
To the floor.

Running

October 20, 2016

Ganaraska Ultra Run

Running now
Running far
Can’t see the end
Not so far.

Running slow
Then very fast
Running smart
To kick some ass.

Running out
Bringing back
Running right
Away from all that.

I’ve Been In A Bad Place

October 18, 2016

I’ve been in a bad place
My heart sad
My soul disgraced
I didn’t know what was pure
What was right.

I didn’t know, I couldn’t fight
That hurt I felt
It cut me through
I didn’t
I couldn’t sleep at night.

Better now
Now I feel rays of warmth
Holding
Basking that same soul
In glorious full sunlight.

Now I know
Now I see
The world is mine
It’s all it has to be.

When I reach for the sky
I lose the restraints that keep me tied.

Heaven Helps

October 13, 2016

Quiet Pond - Photo by Patrice

Heaven helps those that need
No asking, just need
If you look, if you care
Those you need will be there.

Heaven helps, heaven cares
Feel it round, feel it near
Know it’s always
Always here..

You Know

October 12, 2016

You know the answer
You know what’s sane
You know no one can make
Your life full of pain
The only one who can
Is living there in you
And you must make sure
No one lets it happen
No one
Not even you.

A Bluejay Came

Winter Bluejay ~ Photo by Patrice

 

 

 

A bluejay came
Looking for seeds today.

Then as I watched him fly away
I’m sure I heard, heard him say

“Do hurry and get them
Please don’t delay!”

I heard him
I’m sure I heard him say.
