ike patton Poems

if we listen to the world,
we here the memory of the day.
if we listen to the soft wind,
we here it bellow and pray.
...

time is but a state of mind; taken for granted, measured in seconds.
yet for this one brief moment in time a second can last in our hearts forever.
this moment in time is only shared by two souls made and matched by the hand of god him-self. one kiss, one second for eternity.
This kiss putting two faithful lovers in a lifeless daze; as if god where telling them to remain faithful for the rest of their lives and the eternity there-after.
...

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
...

If your life where a book,
would you read it?
If your life where a song,
would you listen?
