There I Am

There I am in my robe
Watching closely as the earth disrobes
All it’s ugly, nasty things
Rising up in beauty
Filled with summer and with spring.
Winter’s cold, bitter hate
Melted here, no distaste
Only warm, fulfilling beams
Creating more lovely dreams.

Bless the ground I stand upon
Know it gives me faith true and strong
Trusting I’ll be here long after
Spring flowers fade and go
But memories of what has been
Or yet to come
Will hold my own sheltering robe so tight
That I know I will be safe
On earth’s soft ground tonight.

Did You See Me

September 7, 2018

To all those I have lost in this life

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Did you see me coming down the lane?
Did you hear me crying, crying your name?
I have lost you in the mist of time
Forgotten what has been
And what was part of mine.

Then I hear you softly call my name
Feel your arms around me once again
Trust the world will still be pleased
Even thou you no longer step
Along this path with me.

Combine All You Got

July 31, 2014

 

Chickens and Eggs ~ illustration by Patrice for the Educational Publisher, Ginn and Company

Combine all you got
Leave no room regretting not
Challenge the atmosphere
Just to hear the echo flowing back
Full of goodness none deny.

Then add it up
Trust it’s the sum of what you’ve got.

Dark And Foreboding

October 31, 2013

Fall Rain ~ photo by photo

Dark and foreboding
The light does not shine
Muddy tracks are erased
In the water running past.

Grasp the heartbeat make it last
Not lost in the dismal, tragic past
For we are here and must trust
It will, forever last.

• 12 • 12 • 12 •
Is just this
A chance
A chance not to miss.

A day
In my lifetime
I’ll see no more.

Powerful
Some will adore
Knowing
It will be no more.

Cherish
Feel it’s strength
As you pass thru
This day
That will be no more.

Trust
This day will carry you
To the next
And on into forever
Evermore.

Snow Falls Coming Lightly Down

October 12, 2012

Snow falls coming lightly down
Melting ‘fore hitting ground
Thoughts of pureness flowing down
Freezing out illness, blight
Softly pushing them far into night
Cleansing, keeping warm
Cold dark earth on the ground.

Snow falls I can see
Cleansing too my responsibility
I must be like the snow
Let it fall, let it go
Landing, changing all I know
Trust it’s right, trust it will
Make alright like the snow
Covers, warms the land
Til spring’s beauty can make a stand.

This my snow comes lightly down
Melting ‘fore hitting ground.

I Am The One

September 25, 2012

I am the one
Who knows me best.

I am the one
I must trust to be the best.

I am the one for me to love.

I am the one
To fill my heart
With nothing but the best.

I am the one who knows.

I am the one.
