Poetry - Knowing, Loving

Knowing, Loving

I know how special you are to me
For you are here to love only me

I care s o very much about you
And we stand here together
In the battle of life and love

I reach out to touch and have you
And you pull me closer to you
And say "David, I love you so much!"

Life often can be hard to comprehend
When dear ones depart from our life

They live on always in our hearts
To show us the true way to live

You are here as my sweet Nicole
And we see the same with such eyes

I will go on to live longer and know
Not only because of all I am
But, because you love me so much.

I give myself and dedicate my life
To the one I truly love, namely YOU!

There are too many pains and suffering
But, I know that I can make it now,
Since we have become joined as lovers

Babe, come here to hold me close
And, yes, let us live and love truly
And know the fairytale can come true

There are great joys in this world
When you have each other to believe
Knowing, Loving you, only you, Nicole

Words written for my precious wife
and very Best Friend, Nicole Lynn

I met my Man

I saw you today and
My soul was complete

I saw you today and
All the world was at my feet

I saw you today and
Saw me

I saw you today and
Found true love

I saw you today and
I thanked God

David asked Nicole to marry him on October 30, 2006 and she said "Yes!"

Poetry - The Call

The Call challenges us to discard what we know of ourselves as seen through other people and the world around us, and to delve deep into our own selves to find who we truly are. There is nothing as essential as what we believe ourselves to be, and that it's not necessary to search for meaning in other people and the world's agendas; just be confident of our own distinct gifts, challenges and dreams.

The Call
by Oriah Mountain Dreamer

I have heard it all my life, A voice calling a name I recognized as my own.

Sometimes it comes as a soft-bellied whisper.Sometimes it holds an edge of urgency.

But always it says: Wake up my love. You are walking asleep. There's no safety in that!

Remember what you are and let this knowing take you home to the Beloved with every breath.

Hold tenderly who you are and let a deeper knowing colour the shape of your humanness.

There is no where to go. What you are looking for is right here. Open the fist clenched in wanting and see what you already hold in your hand.

There is no waiting for something to happen, no point in the future to get to. All you have ever longed for is here in this moment, right now.

You are wearing yourself out with all this searching. Come home and rest.

How much longer can you live like this? Your hungry spirit is gaunt, your heart stumbles. All this trying. Give it up!

Let yourself be one of the God-mad, faithful only to the Beauty you are.

Let the Lover pull you to your feet and hold you close, dancing even when fear urges you to sit this one out.

Remember- there is one word you are here to say with your whole being. When it finds you, give your life to it. Don't be tight-lipped and stingy.

Spend yourself completely on the saying. Be one word in this great love poem we are writing together.

Poetry - Our Burning Hearts

Our Burning Hearts

Our burning hearts reach out now
So full of love and such a need

I see the flame burning so brightly
We love each other with such passion

The waves and wind bring us closer
As the eagle lifts us toward heaven

Where there was once such confusion
There is freedom that fills our hearts

I am finally at home with you
Our love gives me such clarity

There is such beauty within you
As we danced together once again

I am so intoxicated by our love
Our hears burn with such passion

A Beautiful poem written for my wife Nicole Lynn
Who loves me with such a burning heart

Poetry - Once In A Lifetime

Once in a Lifetime

Once in a lifetime
A special woman appears
To touch my heart
With a love so true

She is the love of my life
An angel so very pure
Never have I loved one
as deeply as my Nicole

One Hug
One Kiss
One Life

Makes such a difference.

She challenges me so, but
Accepts me for all I am
How lucky I am - I know!
To have her to love and hold

Nicole, I will always love you
Protecting your from harm
Showing you new ways
And loving you as your man

You have eyes for only me
That know only the truth
The key to her heart
Is to love her true

Come her my precious one
And hold me for awhile
We have found a magick place
With a love that comes …

Once in a Lifetime!

Weathering Love
lullabies by sea breeze

How wild and willing
Love me beyond

Cultivate my Soul
Tell me we are a whole

Embrace yet the dawn
Burning but the sun longing

Toward the moon
One man's come to pass

So that we have the room

You and I is all there is
In the Sky

Our Seasonal Bloom,

Poetry - My Angel, Our Dreams

My Angel, Our Dreams

I've never known an angel like
The one known as Love Flower.

She came to me upon a dream
To share a life and way so real.

I've been thru so much pain and sorrow
That I thought, oh no!, more of the same.

But, for once I feel an inner strength
A place where sweet dreams come true.

Precious angel, show me the way so true
Where dreams appear and true love grows.

"Take my hand dear one, and know"
I will lead you through the night.

Colors wrap you in safe possibilities
Such beauty to be made by only us.

Your wings seem so tired my dear
Cause I've been thru the same as you.

Close your eyes and open your heart
And let us begin our life together.

Such smells come upon the wind
To saver all that is my Love Flower

Let us taste the sweet desires of life
A feel of harmony that comes from inside.

You are the one, our dreams as only one
Use the keys now in your hands.

Oh, see the dreams of love and light
They are here for us to discover together

Ah, the love that was just a dream
Is now inside you and me

As we love each other
Forever
and
Ever

Poetry - Stars and Fireworks

Stars and Fireworks

Oh, the passions that I have for you,
It builds and becomes so intense.

The thoughts and desires I have,
As lips meet, it happens once again.

The heavens light up with our love,
Filled with all these bright stars,
And the bursts of magick fireworks,

Oh, Nicole, you are my one and only!
Your David comes to you to be yours.

We are touched by the light telling you
The love we share is so true and bright.

You understand what it takes to
Tame the fire insides ourselves.

Thanks for being there for me,
And darling to love me forever.

Poetry - My Heaven on Earth

My Heaven on Earth

She came into my life from afar,
Full of pain, mystery and desires.

I knew at once she was my best friend,
The one woman that I would love forever.

You were in prison and I did wonder,
But it did not matter, for you are me.

I love the way that you love me so true,
And how we balance each other so well.

You are so sensual, the way you love me,
All those passions that are so magical.

It is cool the ways that we talk together,
Learning, and teaching, with give and take.

I want to spoil you as you so deserve,
Love, flowers, and all those little things.

We are here to discover everything together,
And it's special how complete I feel with you.

We share a passion for life and have it all,
A trust that tells us we are truly soulmates.

I love so much about my Love Flower,
She brings such desires and needs in me.

I feel like singing and dancing all day,
For you have brought me a heaven on earth.


Thank you Nicole Lynn (Patterson), my wife and best friend, for loving me and being the love of my life.

Poetry - Tears

Tears

Tears seep upon flesh
to die on parted lips

Gasping whispers
Bitter touch
Compulsive emotions

Standing alone - envy of drowning self

Tainted screams of yesterday
Dreaming, love me raging

Be the life of me

Soothing blood flows
Cooper puddles, scent of misery

Captivated laughter, deep within
Abused skin
Scared deeply

Teach me
Teach me

Blood runs cold, ecstasy unfolds

A facade of tomorrows to come
Tears of reality
Are near death

Poetry - A Friend is a Treasure

These words say to much to me - what a friend is really about. It's caring about them and know there is a risk in sharing yourself with others. Some may deceive or even play games with your heart. But those that are true are the ones that will stand by you over a lifetime. Enjoy!!


A Friend is a Treasure

A friend is a treasure

You hold up to your heart

Each one is different, to be sure

To be learned from and cherished

A friend is a charm

Like the charm on a bracelet

Each independent and unique

But still part of a whole, a chain

A friend is the smile

That creeps up on your face

When you wear that chain

And one charm shines, catches your eye

A friend is forever

Adding their link to that chain

That grows into a family-like necklace
Each charm forever against your heart

~Written By Dobhran~

My King

As Queen to the king
I give you my Everything

I rule only cause you stand with me
Equal as a pair should be

You are the king that rules the heart
That is beating upon the chest plate
Of the one who loves you

Upon the air she breaths

Poetry - Dream Weaver

Dream Weaver

I standing here thinking such thoughts about you!
Ah, here is the Dream Weaver to answer me true.

Holding our dreams in the palm of his hands,
To answer them with the songs in our minds.

My hearts has many memories and wishes for you,
That when joined together with desires, come true.

Night shadows fold across the blackened sky,
Feeling your intensity as the lightning strikes.

The stars kiss the morning as the sun rises,
Bring visions of you that become reality.

Oh, my Dream Weaver, I hold you in my heart,
Until the day you come back to become mine.

Poetry - The Invitation

The Invitation is a profound poem that touches deep feelings and emotions within us. Oriah Mountain Dreamer invites us to confront the varieties of human experience, from desire and commitment to sorrow and betrayal, and challenges us to open repeatedly to love and live.

The Invitation
by Oriah Mountain Dreamer

It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.

It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love - for your dream - for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon...
I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow if you have been opened by life’s betrayals or have become shrivelled and closed from fear of further pain.

I want to know if you can sit with pain - mine or your own without moving to hide it - or fade it - or fix it.

I want to know if you can be with joy mine or your own if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful - be realistic remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself. If you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. If you can be faithless and therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see Beauty even when it is not pretty every day. And if you can source your own life from its presence.

I want to know if you can live with failure yours and mine and still stand at the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, “Yes.”

It doesn’t interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done to feed the children.

It doesn’t interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the centre of the fire with me and not shrink back.

It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away.

I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.

Poetry - Butterfly

Butterfly

Young, beautiful and delicate with so much mystery,
She flutters, flies and plays,
Carrying with her more love than she ever dreamed of.

Like a rainbow, she colors everyone's life she touches.
If only she knew her true beauty comes from within.

She will not stay long
So enjoy her while you can
For once you fall in love, she is gone.

She spreads her wings and flies away,
Leaving only a precious memory.

By: Nicole Hutchins

Poetry - A Blessing for My True Love

A Blessing for My True Love

I have been blessed with a Love Flower
An angel that God has sent to me

You are a dream come true by all that you do
You fill my heart with such happiness and joy

You ignite such passions and desires within me
That tells me that you are the One for me

I look into your eyes and see such a sparkle
From the light and joy inside your soul

We both have our share of pain and deception
But now our love has bonded our souls together

Ah, what happens when two fragile hearts unite ?
It’s a gift of love from God that we share

I knew from the day we met you were special
You know how much you mean to me

I hear the sound of your voice, oh joy!
It whispers softly in the wind, “I Love You”

Come here and place your arms around me
You comfort me and my spirit is so happy

You heart beats strongly with such need
Drawing me inside your inner soul

What you do to me, my heart is rushing a mile a minute
What are your wishes my dear, what do you want ?

You are a Cinderella whose wishes can come true
As I discover that you are really just like me

Does ‘happily ever after’ really exit ?
Too often I find a broken magickal spell inside a dungeon

But, just when I think the angel has left me behind
I find a canvas painting filled with rainbow colors of love

Oh babe, come here, touch me, let me feel safe again
I will cradle you safely in my strong loving arms

You have discovered the real me, kissing away the pain
Your sweet hands heal the scars upon my heart

Please hold me close enough so our hearts beat as one
Rock me gently asleep putting the cold world outside

My eyes close, you join me in such sweet dreams
Ah babe, I miss you, and love you with all my heart

The powerful gift of our love is so pure and everlasting
I see the two red roses you hold in your hand just for me

Look at the bond between our divine spirits
That tell you that we are united as one

I am the gatekeeper for the love inside your castle
You hold the key that finally sets ours spirits free

My name is engraved upon your heart
We will live forever and ever as soulmates

Poetry - Tender and Sweet

Tender and Sweet

How deep is my Love

The ocean a cup compared
The Milky Way never ending

I am but a Star
Upon the Galaxy
Of Your Heart

Bursting with love to grasp
To shine within

I will take hold
Never let go

Tender and Sweet

Is the love you give to me
The sun but a guide
The moon a sleeping embrace

I am but a person
In this world

You are but a man
Soulmates to the end

For My Love David Patterson

Poetry - Sing Me a Song

Sing Me a Song

Sing me a song darling
That will ease my pain.
And show me a way to your heart.

Tell me a story, one just for me.
That will bring wholeness to us again,
And teach me to understand you even better

Show me the medicines that truly matter
That will heal our inner souls.
And provide lessons from the Spirit.

Heal my heart so that I can see again
Bring that gift of love just to us.
So we can live through each other,

Forever!

David Kingsnorth Patterson, March 18, 2008

Poetry - Help Me to See

Help Me to See

Please help me to see
Above the pain and deception

There are times when I don't
Really know quite what to do

I turn around and I feel
The anger growing inside me

Don't get lost as the days go by
It's too easy not to see or feel

There is another much like me
She has been thru and back again

And feels the darkness like me
But there is a light inside too

For we have been given a gift
To dream and love together

So give me your hand and be
The one who loves me true.

For my guide and angel, Nicole Lynn (Patterson)
