You, Me

July 9, 2024
You, Me ~ Photo by Patrice

No more can I see

You, Me 

Gone with the past
Used to be

You, Me 

When in the future
will I love?  

You, Me 

Be immersed
in
lovely love? 

You, Me 

No more to happen
No more to be

You, Me.

Natural, Age Old Beauty

July 8, 2024
Last used July 8/24

Does anyone
tell of 
does anyone see
the beauty 
the complexity
of
the world around us? 

A world full
of
natural things
like birds, flowers
and
bees. 

Never let me
be blind
to what could happen
to all this 
all this
natural, age old
beauty. 

Let me help protect it
keep it as it
has always been
as it
should always be. 

And
Let me not forget 
that
I too am part of this 
all this
Heaven on earth 

This
natural 
age old beauty.

You Know I Can’t Tell You

You Know I Can’t Tell You ~ Art by Patrice

You know I can’t tell you 
The secret to your success 

It’s hidden beneath, inside 
Your very own chest 

The secrets will hide 
The truth not told 

Til you accept 

All you’ve been given 
All you behold.

No One Sees

No One Sees ~ Illustration by Patrice

No one helps
no one sees the world
exactly
like me. 

Sometimes I’m great
sometimes I’m very sad
and
sometimes
sometimes I know
just what’s needed
not
to go mad.

I Try

I Try ~ Photo by Patrice

I try to see
The beauty
In living life with dignity
Not criticizing, making enemies. 

I try you see, I try to be
All that I would want
Helping me. 

Guiding me
Throughout this path of life
I’m on
Alongside you, beside of me.

I try
I try you see.

Morning comes
Then it goes
No one knows where
Where it unfolds.

Melting into day
Hiding thru the night
Breaking once again
In the glorious morning light

Sometimes

June 26, 2024
Sometimes ~ Photo by Patrice

Sometimes life is a thought away
Sometimes you need to say
I’ll do my best
and
then we’ll play
leaving all sad things
for
another day.

Sometimes
that’s my thought for today

I Need Today

I Need Today ~ Photo by Patrice

No one can
tell me
no one can say
the comforting words
I need
need today. 

They are all lost, hidden away
not heard
nor
part of the healing
I’m craving
I’m needing today.

Just Like Me

June 24, 2024

No one writes 
No one sees the world
Exactly
Just like me.

Changes come 
Things disappear
They go
As
I sit here

Wondering
What makes me tick
Why
My life ebbs and flows

All the things
Only
I can know.

When I Hear The Sound Of Your Voice

When I Hear The Sound Of Your Voice ~ Photo by Patrice

When I hear 
The sound of your voice 
Life becomes so dear 
Clouds part, rains stop 
And wrens fly near. 

No one speaks a word 
No one need say 
The feelings felt 
To convey how 
The world is ours 
And 
We have all the love 
We need today. 
~ Patrice
