Have You Seen Optimistic?

Have you seen optimistic?
Where, oh where could she be?
At one time she was here
Right beside of me.

She kept me company
Laughed and made me see
The happy, caring way
Just what I need.

But yesterday
She left, she left me
Have you seen optimistic?
If you do, please tell me.

Save Myself, Help Myself

Save myself, help myself
Do not accept defeat
Power, strength moves mountains
Higher expectations cancel out retreat.

Now is the time to stand
Stand right on the line not looking back
Accepting the fact that I am
I am.

I am the one who has the will
The power to help and save
That person who I am
This I know, I know I am.

Running late.
No time, no date.
Must be going
See you when I’m no longer late.

I Love

December 15, 2015

Water Lilies ~ Photo by Patrice

Sufficient to say
I love
Love the moon, sun and sky
Leaves blowing on trees
Squirrels hanging from a branch
Fish swimming in the sea
Brimming with waterlilies.

These are some of what
I love
Most of all I love
The one who made
Each and everything
I see, smell feel
Beneath a blue sky, a vibrant sea.

Always remember to love yourself foremost.
Then you will be able to love all better because

Now Will Come

October 30, 2014

Now will come and soon will past
Memories will be what will last.

Moving in transition from has been
To that that lasts.

Now can dream, dream at last.

The Day Is Bright

October 29, 2014

Fall Colours ~ Photo by Patrice

The day is bright
With promise from the night
Fills my heart, my eyes
Which see a future
That’s right and mine
To honour.

Conquer those demons
Who want to take it away
Stay in the light
Let those terrors, worries float away
Vanquished by the brightness
In this, the brightest of bright days.
~ Patrice
