Neon and Shadows, The Ovaltine Cafe, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

Dismantled

I have walked away
From so many things
So many places
So many people

Myself

Left so much behind
In faded memories
Lost to time
Distraction

And repression

Bowen Island, Howe Sound, From Sea to Sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

Promise to a Friend

In the late afternoon
The sun breaks through
Leaving a glimmering kiss
On Howe Sound’s rippling waters

I am reminded
Of the day’s catches and false-starts
The day which would have never left my bed
But for a promise to a friend

Poetry by Patrick JenningsApr 21, 20167:00 am

Strange

Back home
Where I live
The crows fly twice
Once at dawn
Again at dusk
From and to
Their nightly roost

By the thousands they fly
A twice daily parade
With potent energy
In the morning
A somber homecoming
In the evening
They fly

An old barn, Mulder's House, Langley, British Columbia, Canada

Old Wood & Iron

The old wood
Dry
Greyed
Cracked

The old iron
Rust
Pitted
Flaked

Like me

Still strong

Barn at Mulder's House, Langley, British Columbia, Canada

Windows and Mirrors

Windows provide
A view of the world
And the possibilities beyond

But often the most revealing view
Is when the light of the inner world
Reflects right back to me

12K in the trees, Overlynne Manor, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

From dark to grey to light

I fought for justice
In a world which seemed
Villains and victims
Righteous rage and punishment

I strive for healing
And the world becomes
Healers and the healing
Compassion, grace and service

Light in the trees at night, Deep Cove, British Columbia, Canada

Illusions

Sometimes the path to the light
Seems uninviting

I remind myself

While some have said
The light at tunnel’s end

Is an illusion

Wintry Bare Branches, Langley, British Columbia, Canada

Beneath the Perfect Beauty of it All

Beneath my favourite tree
In my favourite spot
On a warm, sunny Sunday
Breeze tickling the leaves
Rippling the glassy lake
Birdsong
And the smell
Of freshly mown grass

Leafless Boughs, Langley, British Columbia, Canada

The harmony of opposites

I reach
You withdraw
I follow
You hide

I demand
You deny
I beg
You withhold

I am quiet
You listen
I am still
You approach

Transparent ~ Luminous ~ Supple

Sometimes I feel so transparent
As if anyone
Everyone
Can see right into me

Sometimes I feel so luminous
As if anyone
Everyone
Can see my inner light
