Stingrays Flying

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Stingrays flying
In a most beautiful place
In awe, inspired by their beauty, their grace.

Leaping from the sea
Are they jumping in fear
Running from danger beneath the waves?

Not known for sure
For they may be just washing mites
From their smooth, dark face.

Stingrays flying
Leaping
With a particular ballet grace.

Who I Am – Why I’m Here – Part 4.

Months, maybe a year later I can’t recall, a friend was going thru a difficult time. She was lost, spiralling. I felt she needed something to hang onto, get herself steady, stabilized. See her way out of her troubles.

One morning it came to me… Why not post my affirmations, my poetry on my blog, accompanied by my art and photos? This could be a place where my friend could come daily. Maybe to be inspired to find solutions to her troubles, know she wasn’t alone.

So, that’s how my blog began and why I came to be here.

It is my hope my words, my art and photos will bring pleasure, enjoyment and inspiration to your life.

Namaste

Let Me Be Inspired

Let me be inspired
Let me see my way
Down the road
Across the pasture
Far into life
Way on my way.

You have always
Helped me through
You have been there
When my way fell apart
And I didn’t know
What to do.

I can stand now
On my own
On my own because of you
Let me be inspired
Let me follow through.

Let me see my way
Down the road
Becoming great
Great just like you.
