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

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

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.

The Arrow’s Journey-poem from my book Jewels of Awe December 22, 2007

The Arrow’s Journey

We wear no mask
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

Of a garden
Planted with seeds

We Began- a poem from Journey of A Woman December 22, 2007

We Began

Many tides
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
