You Pick Me Up

You Pick Me Up ~ Photo by Patrice

When I fall 
you pick me up 
my life is saved 

My heart 
also 
is picked up 

Safe and serene 
standing straight up 
I feel your presence, I feel your love 

And that’s when 
I race 
to another 

who needs me 
to 
pick them up.

Let Me Be

Let Me Be ~ Photo by Patrice

Let me, let me be
at peace
quiet, silent
not asking anything

Let me, let me be
happy and carefree

Let me be.

Joy Will Come

Joy Will Come ~ Photo by Patrice

Joy will come
happiness will be
then I’ll see
all the world wants me
to be.

No one left behind
no one crying
for we are all together
now and forever
til the end of eternity.

The Water Weeps

The Water Weeps ~ Photo by Patrice

The water weeps to the ground 
Soaking all 
Saturating a thirsty ground. 

Flowers dance between 
The raindrops moist 
Blooming, sacrificing all 
It is their choice. 

Clouds thunder 
Marching across the sky 
No time for plunder 
For something in the distance 
Has caught their eye. 

Now I stand amidst this 
I’m part of this 
The earth, the wind, the sky 
All this happening round 
I feel it, feel so profound.

Not Sure

August 13, 2024
Not Sure ~ Photo by Patrice

Not sure why
Anything is. 

Not sure how
The earth came to be
Nor if it’s existed
More than an eternity. 

Not sure why
My heart does pound
When I feel your presence
Next to mine. 

Not sure I’ll be here
Laughing, crying with my family
Til the sun sets
On all humanity. 

Not sure
Not sure I want to be.

Quietly I Said

August 12, 2024
Quietly I Said ~ Watercolour by Patrice

Quietly I said those words
I know you dread.

The ones  
that show you
for what you really are.

Quietly I said
quietly with no malice
no anger or dread.

I wish you too
could hear my words.

And  quietly 
quietly change the way
you say the words
to be said.

Not Sure, Not Sure Why

Not Sure, Not Sure Why ~ Photo by Patrice

Not sure, not sure why 
the world turns the way it does 
clouds stream across the sky 
birds sing and cows call. 

I stand in the midst of it all 
and 
I’m not sure 
not sure why.

I Can’t Believe

August 7, 2024
I Can't Believe ~ Illustration by Patrice

I can’t believe
the things I see
I need 

Maybe tomorrow
I’ll be better able to handle
all that comes at me 

Maybe then
I’ll smile, relax
and
know it was meant to be 

Meant
just for me.

No Matter What

No Matter What ~ Watercolour by Patrice

No matter what 

The earth turns 
bringing light and warmth 
on a summer day. 

No matter what 

Filling oceans up 
creating life in the water 
dirt and the sky. 

No matter what 

She moves 
speaking words of love 
heard by those quiet enough 

No matter what.

No More To Say

August 1, 2024
Last used Aug. 1/24

No more to say
nothing
else to do
sitting, relaxing 
watching everything
I need to be reality

Come true.
