Peace

Peace has come
Peace lets me see
That the world is full of kindness 
Gentleness 
Most of all majesty.

Let me be in this peaceful place
Let me be
Full of gentle grace
Not judging anyone
Not even me. 

Tomorrow will be
Another day
Tomorrow will let me see
That
We can all live together
In peace, love and harmony.

Soldiers Soldier

Soldiers soldier,
lovers love 
Peace, tranquillity
come to those that soldier on
with love

Make me not
one
that believes
not in love

Make me a soldier
in that army conquering
hatred, prejudice
giving only 
unconditional love.

A Life Full

No one lives a life full of anger, strife
nor
do they live in unprecedented peace 
a nondescript life. 

Somewhere between, somewhere 
we live 
our own beautiful
personal life.

My Hearts A Mess

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

My hearts a mess
There is no rest
No peace, no quiet.

Racing, racing on
Racing fast
How will I ever last?

When can I see
Peace
Quiet and dignity?

When will I feel
My heart pump
A slow, soft, quiet thump?

Can’t hold on
Can’t see
How I got here, how to leave.

All I see is
My hearts a mess
There is no rest, that’s all, all I see.

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.

Today Someone Died A Long Time Ago

Today someone died a long time ago
He changed my life
The course of things that could have been
And my time with him
May not have been so smooth
But I remember him
Yes, I remember him from so long ago.

Adieu, may peace and God be with you
My love, my friend adieu.

See The Depth There Inside

 

See the depth there inside
Where no one can or could ever hide.

There inside let me be the one who stands
And sees what can be not that what shouldn’t be.

See the depths close you eyes
Be at peace because here inside you can reside
Safe secure til all is right outside.

Dwell inside but first look deep inside
See the depth where it does reside.

She’s Coming Home

 

She’s coming home
I’ll pick her up
No more alone
Forever to stay here
Here at home.

May have sadness
Remorse and regrets
But she will lay
In peace and happiness
Forever, ever to be missed
My sweet
Sweet little miss.

Her soft, rough fur
Her gentle brown, caring eyes
Her tail that never wags
No barks, no romping
A smile upon her sweet face
I may see no more.

But home you’ll be
Home with me
Forever
Evermore.
~ Patrice
