My Heart Beat Soft

Slowly hearing
My heart beat soft
Taking in the beauty
Beneath, within and aloft.

No words spoken
No words need said
For all is explained
In a beat so soft.

Can I Venture To The Past?

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Can I venture to the past?
Relax and enjoy things seen
Fix what wasn’t right
Move forward
To this time I live in now
Confident
My heart will no longer hunger
For what has been and passed.

Can I?
Dare I venture to the past?

Do I Tell The Stories

Do I tell the stories
I know
Or do I let them go.

My heart doesn’t know
The way
The way I should go.

My spirit tells me
Feel the earth
Breathe the skies.

And the beings that live
Purely
Will guide you, they’ll never lie.

My Heart

My heart rules, my heart says
Be the best and then leave the rest
Don’t look for bad nor tolerate those
That bring it.

My heart hears all kinds of things
Water crashing on distant shores
A baby bird looking for some more
The calling of a lonesome wolf.

My heart feels the touch of necessity
A coffee warm, so tasty
The gentle caress from one
So loved.

My heart does all these things
While beating life and breathe
Into everything.

With All That Has Happened

With all that has happened
My soul is drawing on
Her experience, her knowledge
To guide me thru
The labyrinth of time.

My heart has given all to her
Believing in her guiding light
I will rest
When the time is right.

My Deepest Sympathies

My Deepest Sympathies to the families, friends
All who know victims in yesterday’s horrific tragedy
My prayers go out to you
To the ones whose lives were brutally cut short
Those injured

For no reason.

No sane reason.

You are in my thoughts, my words, my prayers and my heart. ❤

No Words To Say

No words to say on this terrible, terrible day
My heart, my thoughts are with you
Those who have lost so much.

Remember their laugh, their jokes
Their expertise in playing hockey
Winning, skating, scoring
Checking, hat trick touch
They did it all.

They stand with you still
Holding up, holding close
You, their folks.
Til you too can come
To their fantastic playoff game.

You’ll watch them score
No heartache anymore
A team unsurpassed
Watch them play
Winning in your hearts today
A love you’ll never lose
No more.
~ Patrice

My prayers are with you the family, friends, those who knew the ones on the Humboldt Bronco bus, whose lives were tragically cut short on Friday.
May they rest in peace and love. ❤
