Moving Forward

February 15, 2023
Moving Forward ~ Photo by Patrice

Moving forward is the only thing 
The only way

With gentleness and resolve
Make your way

Walk your path into tomorrow
Living in today

Leave yesterday where it is
It’s had it’s time
It’s day.

Valentine’s Day

February 14, 2023
We met on Valentine's Day

I met my love 
A long time ago 
And 
Far, far away 
On this day 
This 
Valentine’s Day. 

We’ve travelled 
Thru life 
Together 
Living, loving, laughing 
Maybe 
A little fighting 
Whatever 
Life brought us 
On that particular day. 

Looking back 
I smile and say 
Life has been good 
Since 
Way back 
When I met my love 
On 
Valentine’s Day.

No Way

February 13, 2023
No Way ~ Photo by Patrice

No way, 
No way can I know
The why.

The reason is hidden deep
In the blue 
Mysterious sky.

There above, there to see
But
Not understand.

What is beyond
The moon, the stars
And
Distant galaxies.

You Didn’t See Me

You didn’t see me I know for a fact
Nor did you want me
Want me back.

I slide into the shadows
Paused in a quiet spot
Before heading away from you
And all, all your self-centred thoughts.

I won’t be back and I think
It’s a well known fact
That you’ll never miss me
You’ll never ever, ask me back.

Changes Come

February 9, 2023
Changes Come ~ Photos by Patrice

Changes come
They do flow
From the beginning
Forward
Forward do they go. 

Making a difference
Changing attitudes
And
Seeing opinions change
From what we knew
To what we didn’t know. 

Let me be part of the change
Let me know
I’ll be different then I was
Better than I was
When the changes help me
Change and grow.

Heaven’s Heart

February 8, 2023
Heaven's Heart ~ Photo by Patrice

Heaven’s heart is full of grace
Magnificence and magic
Within
All it’s space

There my soul does reside
Beside yours
Together 
We do abide

Safe within
Heaven’s tender embrace
Feeling nothing but love
And
Sweet, gentle grace.

The Way

February 7, 2023
The Way ~ Photo by Patrice

Knowing how
Does not make it seem

The easy way 

The way
To get it done 

The way
It’s always been 

Choice is yours 

The path has been
Trodden by many 

That you
Personally
Haven’t known nor seen 

Making it no better
Only

The way for you 

It seems.

Birds Fly In

February 6, 2023
Birds Fly In ~ Illustration by Patrice

Birds fly in, then fly out
Seeds are there, then gone
They’re out.

I’m sitting here
Watching, watching
All the goings-on
Go about. 

They don’t know
I’m here 
They don’t care
About my life, my goings-on. 

Cause they have
Their own life to live
Like sing, find seeds  
Fly about.

Do I

February 2, 2023
Do I ~ Pastel Art by Patrice

Do I do it 
Or
Leave it alone?

The question is asked
And
I know 
The decision to be made
The answer given 
Is
My choice
My choice alone.

Which way
Will I go 
Which one will I leave
Leave
All alone?

Tender Is

February 1, 2023
Tender Is ~ Photo by Patrice

Tender is the life
I live.

Tender is the heart
That beats
Kindness to the world.

Tender is the soul
Who knows compassion
Gives.

Yes 
Tender is.
