Rise and Be Seen
Rise
and be seen
your truth
is our gift
the richness of love’s beauty
soothes a man’s soul
we reach one another
in this way
through the silent moments
between breaths
the petal floating gently
down to earth
to land between the spaces of two blades of grass
so see
we want to know your beauty
Rise
and be seen
Moves the Soul
Doubt is a great reliever
Of joy
Leave this old friend
At the door
We have come to dance
There are places for those unpleasantries
Elsewhere
But not in this place
Here we rejoice
For our wanting
Has become
The sweet sound that
MOVES THE SOUL
Dive Into These Depths
Dive into these depths
The walls of an open heart
DISSOLVE
within the gentle touch
of love
BE FREE
in this moment
where all that you are
connects to
all that IS

About me… May 25, 2008
Patricia Sanders
poet
I have been writing poetry since I was young. It seemed to be a way to express my thoughts. I wrote words that would flow, sometimes I would be surprised reading some of my poems such as this one called “An Oak’s Breath”
An Oak’s Breath
A wind this way does blow
A song this way does sing
A voice this way does speak
Of simpler things, not weak
A tongue upon my cheek
It is clarity I do seek
Of a tomorrow no longer bleak
Of you I do bequeathe
All that knows how to breathe
And life remains a soothing sound
My soul grows strong
An oak’s breath- a sweet scent
In a mountain I have lived
No more sorrow
I have found the gold
The search for which I did seek
The words have come quickly and as though through me rather than from me and at other times they have come from my heart. Either way they brought me a new intimacy with my own spirit and helped me in knowing thyself.
I have been meditating alone and in groups since I was a teenager and long before the “the Secret” I used intentions and positive affirmations to aid me in my life, I have been doing that since I was a teenager. I have been studying metaphysics since I was a teenager as well. I have been doing reiki since my mid twenties.
I continue to write poetry and have recently published a book with my daughter’s artwork which I think is very good art and my poetry.
I am married and live in Oregon with my husband and three daughters, plus our two dogs and recently acquired chickens.
Poetry for and from the Soul May 25, 2008
Poetry for and from the Soul
Poetry For and From the Soul
A collection of poems reflecting the journey towards knowing thyself
By Patricia Sanders
Poetry For and From the Soul is an eclectic collection of poetry from author Patricia Sanders. In this work, the author touches upon themes such as love and loss, but also has elements of nature and the passage of time. In “Time Says,” the author draws a parallel between the passage of time and the end of a relationship.
Time says
Goodbye
Standing there
Fake stones
Avoiding the sun
My face
Shocked by
The coldness
Of the air
Stood silent
And fell
To pieces
Likewise in “Through the River,” natural elements are used to embrace the somber tone of her mood.
You
That I left
Behind
Suddenly
Drift along
A boat that sails
Through
The river
Of my mind
“Poetry For and From the Soul” is and intriquing collection of poetry that may appeal to a wide variety of readers.

Casting Away Shadows March 6, 2008
From Casting Away Shadows
Casting Away Shadows
The light has come
To cast away the shadows
In time’s remaining hands
All that was left undone
Becomes a finished chore
Dancing into the light
Of remembrance
Of who I am
My sacredness
A key I have turned
Unlocking
My worthiness
With timid hands
That forgot
How to shine
The shadows barely there
Anymore
As they come
Into the light
To merge
Into wholeness
|
As Timeless As Creation Bring joy Bring love Bring laughter Bring light As timeless as creation |

Journey of A Woman March 6, 2008
Journey of A Woman - poetry for and from the soul
Courting
We walk
hand in hand
oblivious to the shadow
courting the synergy of
what has always been there
a sure smile
A lover’s symphony
I spoke
to your heart
for it called me
with it’s brave intensity
and in passing months
I swam
it’s deep ocean
You spoke
to my heart
for it called you
It’s own
rising of desire
And love’s breath
Upon my soul March 6, 2008
Upon My Soul
On ground of sacred Earth
The ringing of bells
Can be heard
Calling us to remember
A truth veiled lightly
In a blanket of forgetfulness
I’ll find me there
Where angel’s songs
Upon my ears
Do greet the morning sun
And in the cracks
My worthiness
I left unkempt
In a long forgotten place
Sullen
The road more frequently traveled
When joy forgot her face
The child inside
A voice so long unheard
Safely tucked into the womb
Of love’s sweet arms
Woven of all that glitters
(another poem from my book)
His Beauty Undisturbed
His beauty undisturbed
A sad bird cries
And echoes silently
Into waking rest
Come hither to me
Light does beckon
His soul does spy
An eyelid lifts
His vision new
On dawn’s uplifting view
And here he whispers
Of divine
A wisdom
Quiet and unspoken
May I know
What from your tongue
Sits heavy
And does not fall
Your heart
Its beating
A song unheard
But ears
That listen
Have heard
The beauty
You hold
Undisturbed
(another poem from my book)
Blind Wolf
Sky of purple time
Filled of broken windows
Remain untouched
By the purity
Of a scented hand
That reaches
Outside of blue shores
Love-a blind wolf
Howls to a sacred moon
That longs
With tired birds
Of procrastination
Bringing passersby
Lonely hitchhikers
Timeless travelers
That fear not only
The coldness of winter’s thorns
But the openness of spring

Cast a thousand bones into the night
And let loose the chains of boredom
Let me be born into the world of
Enchantment
Repeatedly and without caution
Let my steps take me up stairs
Bearing light
And
Irresistible fruits

A book of poetry

Softcover
The Arrow’s Journey-poem from my book Jewels of Awe December 22, 2007
Upon our face
We walk around
Made of glass
Easily shattered
Wounded or broken
We aim our arrow
Straight for our target:Happiness
What gets in the way?
The loss of innocence
A tree
Our own hands
Bowl of Fruit- from Jewels of Awe December 22, 2007
Bowl of Fruit
Your face
Turns dark
A shadow on the wall
Hides from view
I miss the sight
Of love
The scent of morning dew
Dust fills the room
Paintings hang
Upside down
Fruit sits quietly
In a bowl
Waiting…
To be eaten

Full blooms
Of peaceful contentment
Blossoming
Into light
Filled of
Endless beauty

We Began- a poem from Journey of A Woman December 22, 2007
Rolling into my heart
Fingers like bows
Take their aim
Sharp as the sky
On a cold winter’s day
I will give you
All the sunrise
Has to offer
Blue skies
Calling me again
Lift the heaviness
From your hands
With a sweet smile
Tell time
It has no reason
To worry
We began
With always written
Across destiny
