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

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.
