Heaven Helps

Heaven helps
heaven waits to save 
comfort when you fall
when your heart sinks
and no one comes
even if you ask, you cry
you call.

Heaven stands strong
stands tall
reaching down, lifting up
saving you, giving
asking nothing back
nothing at all.

A Little Mess Was Made

A little mess was made
And yet the consequences
Were not staged

They came in rolling waves
Bringing pain
Then peace

Breaking on the cheek
Grinding all the way
To aching, hurtful feet

Not sure what to do
Comfort, scold or
let be, let do

The consequences
When
A little mess is made.

I Saw A Hummingbird Amongst Snowflakes

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

I saw a hummingbird amongst snowflakes
Shattering life, no respite
Falling into spring cold and shivering
Hovering over brave blooms
As you come to make a summer home
In this land that has no way
To warm and comfort
On this cold spring day.

Fly south I’d say, then wait a day
Before braving storms to come back
To the land you can call
A summer home once more
Yes, I saw a hummingbird
Amongst snowflakes just today.

Sweet Remember

 

 

Sweet Remember
Just never to forget
Going down the pathway
Far away from regret.

Love it solely
Love to be
Nestled in comfort
With memories of where
I used to be.
