Trisha North Quotes

“BULLIES ARE AWFUL,
FRIENDS ARE BETTER

There will be people who will betray you.
There will be people who will bully you.
There will be people who will try to devour you.
Find the people that bring you strength.
Find the people who will give you courage.
Find the people who will fill you with love.
Because, they matter more than all the bullies in the world.
You matter more.
Bullies are awful, friends are better.”

“THE BRIGHT ONES

Even the bright ones lose their glow
Even the royal lose their throne
Even the dancer’s feet grow sore
I can see your spirit elevated
In a majestic leap toward the sky
I can understand now
Why we wish upon the stars at night
Sometimes the ones we love wait quiet
Sometimes we lose them in an instant
Sometimes we don’t understand the reason
I can see your mind reeling
Pictures scattered across the floor
It should comfort us
These memories
But right now I want to wage a war
Even the bright ones lose their glow”

“This is light.” He tightened his fist and then quickly opened his fingers releasing a magical burst of flame from his right hand. Swirling around his palms in different directions he caused the scarlet blaze to dance in thin air before he firmly clutched it and caused it to disappear, ”Light is the natural agent that stimulates sight and makes things visible. It causes things to burn and sparks the act of ignition…In the Mortal Bible in the book of Genesis it is the beginning of life...” The Professor opened his arms wide as he spoke with great bravado “‘And God said, “Let there be Light!’” and there was light.’’ His hands released a stream of lightning bolts that flashed so majestically that it caused all of the onlookers to mask their eyes from its harsh glow before the bolts ceased in their gleaming, “But remember God also labeled that light as good and God divided the light from the darkness…” As quickly as the flame flourished in his hands before, he used his fists with the same intensity causing all of the fluorescent bulbs to dim and the room to suddenly fall into complete darkness.”

“INK

Everything we know
The things that haunt us
in our sleep
The scars,
The joy,
The sweat,
The tears
Is just a bit of ink.”

“BIG IDEAS

There are such small hands
In this world that are molding
Such big ideas”
― Trisha North, Wordsmith

“AWAKENING

A moment awakening:
Clouds knotted across the sky
And I let the day flood in
Listening to the heartbeat of the world
As I gaze out of my window
Around my room are lullabies
Of light dancing
In glorious forms
Folded like dough
Across the hardwood floors
I cannot sleep
I must arise”
