Why Bother

September 13, 2022
Why Bother ~ Photo by Patrice

Why bother 
To be in the midst of anxiety 
To dwell 
Within destitution? 

Makes no sense 
To me. 

Be free to see 
Feel 
The joys of happiness  
The heights of ecstasy. 

It’s a choice to be 
A decision 
made by you, by me 
Let it be.

Terrible Things

Terrible Things ~ Photo by Patrice

Terrible things have happened 
Terrible things 
Terrible things live
Exist. 

We must live
Trying
Not to harbour 
But
Eliminate
Those terrible things.

Not hear, feel 
Allow
Those awful 
Awful
Terrible things.

No More

No More ~ Photo by Patrice

No more
Can no one say. 

No more to hear 
To see. 

No more will be suffice 
To carry us through this day 
This night. 

No more to feel
What wasn’t felt
Yesterday. 

No more 
Will there be
A difference between us. 

No more you, no more me
No more.

Before The Light Begins To Fade

Before the light begins to fade
See the beauty in all you survey
Let no small thing be overlooked
As you feel your heart pounding
In a life lived with gratitude
Giving all
No matter what comes to be
This, I think
We need to see.

A Home Is A Home

May 19, 2022
A Home Is A Home ~ Photo by Patrice

A home is a home 
no matter the width, the size 
treasured forever 
lived in from birth 
to the time you die. 

Feel the gentle breathing 
of timbers and frame 
holding strong
in winter winds, torrential rains. 

All are welcomed 
with love, no despair 
come 
step into this home. 

There you’ll share 
laughs, great food 
and
a glass of sweet cheer.

Spring

April 7, 2022
Last used April 7/22

I feel
The flesh of my skin 
Warming
To the now coming
Spring 

I see
My legs run
Across a path 
Laden with flowers 
Beauties of
Spring 

I hear
A call echoing thru
my chest 
Of geese making their flight 
To reaches north
In the now here
Spring 

No more
To wonder 
No more to wish 
My body knows winter is lost 
Chased away 
By beautiful, glorious
Spring.

My Heart Aches

March 31, 2022
My Heart Aches

My heart aches
my soul cries 
for a time
of clear innocence 
a time that time
has taken 
to the past 

No more to feel 
to bask
in rays of light
hearted laughs 

Sadness overwhelms 
hurt
seems to last 
til no more tears left 
to sob
crying for the now
distance past.

A Place

February 28, 2022
A Place ~ Photo by Patrice

I think the world has come
to 
a place 
of tremendous joy
or
deep sorrow 

Each step we take
will lead us
to
a place 
filled with happiness 
or
despair 

This place 
where I want to be 
is
not hidden 
but
open, right there 
in front of you 
of me 

Take the steps
you need 
to chose
the path to joy
this place
of
happy 

Tread not down 
the deep,
dark hole 
of
desperate agony 

This place 
I think I need 
I feel 
I see
I will be.

Unholy Happenings

February 8, 2022
Unholy Happenings ~ Photo by Patrice

Unholy happenings
unhappiness
has begun  
bogged down in misery 
what oh what has
this become? 

Let no one stay 
in
the vicinity 
let no man or woman 
be
overcome. 

Let joy and happiness 
be the ones 
we see, feel, experience 
and
become.

Beauty

Beauty ~ Photo by Patrice

Look out and see
Beauty 
Breathtaking beauty 
That
Seems not much 
You may say 

But 

See, feel and hear 
All the beauty 
The breathtaking beauty 
Unfolding
In front of you 
Each and everyday.
