Beauty In Nature

We come to see
The beauty in nature
Here, for all
To see.  

Just take a breath
Look around
See
All the magnificence
That nature has given
To you, to me

Hear The Bells Ring

Hear the bells ring 
Some birds sing
While chimes announce
The coming of daylight
In the early morning spring. 

All is right
All will be as nature
Deems it to be
Far into the quiet darkness
Of night’s fading light.

Seeking Sacred

Seeking sacred
seeking to find the peace in nature 
that peace
I’ve been declined. 

It’s beauty is beautiful 
it’s nature divine 
seeking that that’s sacred 
enveloping, 
making it part of me and mine.

Why I Think The Things I Do

I don’t know why
I think the things I do
Or why sometimes
They come true.

I do know my heart
Loves the way
Nature brings beauty
To me, to you.

To live in joy, laughter
Not thinking anything
Depressing
Or blue.

That’s why
I guess
I think the things
I do.

Love Is Never Lost

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Love is never lost
Only left behind or put in a place
Where it can’t grow.

Sow love seeds so dear
Nurture, care
Watch love grow.

No needy nor neglect
Let love grow in your heart
Don’t let it be, ever lost.

For this you’ll know
As you watch it grow
Love can never, ever be lost.

A Turtle Met Me Just Today

A turtle met me just today
While I was on my way
She wasn’t very cordial
Actually, awful antisocial.

Snapping, snapping
On what seemed
Her busy way.

The sun was shinning bright
On shell glistening
In the morning light.

What a time to see
A turtle there in front of me
She’s on her way
Must lay eggs today.

No time to doddle
No time to say
Good morning or good day
Must be on my way.

I met a turtle
Just today
A snapping turtle
By the way.

Thunder Rushes Full Speed Ahead

Thunder rushes full speed ahead
Crashing, banging
Leaving dread all around.

Down to ground lighting speeds
Flashing, crashing
Creating dread all around.

Rain pours all over ground
Soaking, pouring dread
As it rains down.

A storm has come
Crashing, flashing, pouring down
Leaving dread all around.
