The Sun

March 8, 2024

The Sun ~ Photo by Patrice

The sun breaks 
over a brown earth 
Left as if dead from winter storms 
But then 
In the midst of all broke 
Deemed dead and dying 
Is a small green shoot 
Emerging 
Bringing life 
To a winter weary land. 

The warm sun gives life 
Nurtures 
The rising ones 
Spring 
Has come 
As winter retreats 
Only 
On a later day 
To blast 
Blow once again. 

The sun then rests 
Satisfied 
she has done her best 
Thou 
She too 
Will be back 
Tomorrow 
To nurture, bring life 
With a warm, radiating 
Spring sun.

No More To Be Sad Or Happy

March 7, 2024

No more
To be sad or happy
No more to say
Those words
I didn’t want to say. 

All is finished
Completed in every way
Now is the time
To be just me 
Just me all day.

When The Sky Does Flow

March 5, 2024
Last used March 5/24

When the sky does flow
Across the land
Earth itself will command
All creatures dear
Big or small
To love 
 To live 
Make us be
All one
No matter what voice
We may speak
Or call.

No More

Last Used March 4/24

No more
To say
No more
To do. 

Just sitting
Here
In the midst of beauty 
And
Contentment  
Too.

In Retrospect

March 1, 2024

In Retrospect ~ Photo by Patrice

In retrospect

I see so clearly
The problems I had
Answers
That evaded me

In retrospect

I could have
Done things
Differently

In retrospect

I know my life
Could have been
Changed drastically

But

In retrospect

Then I would not be
The person I’ve become
I need to be

In retrospect.

Feeling Hurt

Feeling Hurt ~ Photo by Patrice

Feeling hurt, feeling pain
Wonder
Whatever is it
That I need to gain? 

No one else
Seems to be
In this 
In this quandary.

Secrets

Secrets ~ Photo by Patrice

Nobody else can ever know
All the secrets
Life bestows.

But when we’re gone 
No longer here
Those secrets have a life
They ever flow.

No More

No More ~ Photo by Patrice

No more to be  
No more to roam
Far away
From the expanse
I know 
I call home. 

Now is a new time
Now will be a time of change
A time to be
Everything I wanted
Everything
I knew was there
For me to claim.

The Caged Bird

February 2, 2024

Patrice Clarkson’s Blog

The Caged Bird ~ Photo by Patrice

The caged bird flies
Deep into brilliant
Blue, blue skies.

The caged bird cries
Songs of lilting love
Her sweet voice sings
Of beauty, freedom
All things.

The caged bird dies
In the midst of bars holding
Holding her in.

No soaring in blue skies
Nor lilting love songs sung
For this was only a dream
Dreamt in
A dark night long.
~ Patrice
