There Isn’t Any Time

May 30, 2023
There Isn't Any Time ~ illustration by Patrice

There isn’t any time
To
Make it right
No time to turn around
An ongoing blight. 

Let the world know
Let it be said
You stood your ground
You did what had to be done
Had to be said.

Tender Is The Heart

May 25, 2023
Tender Is The Heart ~ Drawing by Patrice

Tender is the heart
That beats
Coursing love thru all that speak
Never once demanding back
Only loving, loving
And
That is that.

Words

Classic Car ~ Illustration by Patrice for B.C. Central Credit Union

I go to write
Listening for the words to form
Pictured in my mind they come
They take their form
On the page they rest
Now said, now wrote.

I thank the presence
That brought them to my mind
Formed the thoughts to convey
And then
Without another word
Quietly slipped away.

Happen, Happened

April 19, 2023
Happen, Happened ~ Illustration by Patrice

You cannot see
I cannot say
What
Will happen, happened
Yesterday. 

The time is unknown
Can only wonder
About tomorrow
And
What took place
Yesterday.

Do You Know Me

April 12, 2023
Do You Know Me ~ Illustration by Patrice

Do I know you? 

Do you know me? 

Do you wake in the night
Wondering how I could be? 

Is your first thought in the morning about me? 

Your last question as your eyes fall asleep
Is it, is it all about me? 

I didn’t think so
I knew it wouldn’t be 

Cause I never think of you
And
You don’t know me.

The Sadness In Your Life

April 10, 2023
The Sadness In Your Life ~ Watercolour by Patrice

When I see
The sadness in your life
The unkindness
The things that shouldn’t be
My heart goes out
Wants to hold you
Oh, so closely. 

I hope in tomorrow’s
Morning light
You’ll be in a better place
Far away from any strife
But near enough 
So
We can embrace.

When I Hear Your Call

March 22, 2023
When I Hear Your Call ~ Watercolour by Patrice

When I hear your call
My heart skips a beat
My mind thinks of all the things
I love about you
Oh, so sweet. 

When you had to go away
My days were grim
My heart was sad
How
My eyes did cry. 

Now again 
I can hear your voice
Taste your lips and behold you
With my eyes. 

My world is right
I’m loved
I’ll go thru the day
Without a sad or lonely cry.

Hearing Words

March 17, 2023

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Pen Ink Drawing of an Owl ~ Illustration by Patrice for B.C. Central Credit Union

Hearing words in my head
They tell of times past
Then
Sometimes things ahead

‘Listen
Listen well’

Is what they said

‘For in telling, we give you
A chance to know
Know how to deal with
What has happened
And what is still ahead’.

Honours

March 13, 2023
Honours ~ Illustration by Patrice for Holt, Rinehart and Winston's reader, 'Flights Near And Far'

Honours come
Then they go
Fleeting at the best
Don’t make them
All you know 

They are in your mind
They don’t exist
As
I hope you know 

In the air you breathe
Growing grass 
Or
Rivers that flow 

No, they don’t know.

A Heart Touched

March 7, 2023
A Heart Touched ~ Watercolour Art by Patrice

A heart touched
By a loving paw and a wet nose
Is a heart
Forever
Forever full.
