Hand-written

image

I wrote a letter to my love
And sprayed it all with scent
Poor letter though did not go well
For hand write could not be read
He tried his best, he really did
It’s not his fault at all
So after hours, minutes, days and nights
A phone call I received
To thank me for the letter sweet
Even though it made no sense
He tried to make out all the words
But could I read it back to him?

Serenity

image

The calmness after the storm
Ceremony over, whirlwind done
I am married, I am loved
No longer walking this life alone
Peace and calm and serenity
Before our new life, and all that will be
Creates whirlwinds to carry us along
Our path of life and love and union

What is Love?

Love is the respect you feel
When treated with respect

Love is the warmth inside
When treated with desire

Love is the hope you feel
When treated with dignity

Love is the self-esteem that builds
When accepted for the self within

Love is the humility you feel
When treated better than you act

Love is the love you feel
When loved for who you are

To Not Kill

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Agree to Disagree.”

I have a friend
We disagree on almost everything
But most of all we disagree
On life and parenting
To keep the peace and a friend
I practice tact, diplomacy
So instead of going for the kill
I’ve learnt to be quite still

Finesse

With flair, I will live my life
With finesse, I will write my soul’s poetry
With passion, I will love with my heart’s whole

Brain Power Haiku

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Brain Power.”

If my brain unlocked
Quite suddenly, leaving me
Speechless, I would find

Myself wanting to
Write about it, but without
More time, I could not

Weaving Words

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Connect the Dots.”

The dedicated words which writers use
Are weaved together to inform
To resonate or to amuse
Stories and poems and fiction and tales
Gifts to the world from those who would write
To offer company or perhaps to fix any ails
So if you be lonely and need something to do
And have some time, a few minutes to spare
Pick up a book and read, any closest to you

Beating Heart

image

I lay my head
Against your chest
And feel your beating heart

One hope I know
My love for you
Will never tear apart

So this I pray
That you and I
Will never be apart

Sunshine

image

You light up my world
In a way that nothing else can
Please don’t take my sunshine away
