Nothing Really Happens Til

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Nothing really happens
Til something moves
Takes control.

Nothing really happens
In the morning bright
Til eyes open
Letting in streaming sunlight.

Nothing really happens
Til words are spoken
From a mouth open
Speaking things we need to know.

Nothing really happens
Til feet move
Heeding the mind’s signals
And control.

Nothing really happens
Til we let Mother Nature
Let nature have the reins
And we let go.

No More

No more
To
Tell

No more
To
See

Moving on
Not
Looking back

Nothing there

Nothing
Of
Quality.

Secretly

Secretly
I say the words needed to see
The goodness in bad
The needs needed
To be
Loved and lovingly.

Secretly
I say these words
With
Clarity.

Standing Still And Breathing Deep

Standing still
And
Breathing deep 
The world comes into focus. 

Then I know
Know what I need to leave
And
What I need to keep.

The Past

Let the past be
The past 

Get on with
Today.

Going Forward, Not Looking Back

Going forward, not looking back 
Leaving badness in the past

Let no one be carried
On a bed of sadness

But

Rejoice, go forward 
Pursuing happiness.

The Secret Is

The secret is to be able to love 
Love
The unloveable.

I Can’t Get

I can’t get where I want to go
If
I don’t know where that is.

Heaven Help Me

Heaven help me 
Heaven
Let me see 
The things I need to do
To make my life
A glorious thing of exquisite beauty
Now
And throughout
Eternity.

Sweet Nectar

Nobody tastes
The sweet nectar of love
And
Wants no more.
