Believe in your faith set your spirit free
Write from the heart for the people to see
Construct in a way that makes all things nice
Using words that are different
And verses so bright
The aim is no secret
My lines are so true
These poems are so beautiful
But the reader is You
The target has been accomplished
Dead centre I got
Believe in yourself
Then you'll accomplish a lot

April showers

Stream runs free
It trickled down
With all the insects
Running round.

It's so clear, the sun reflects
The shadow grass makes
The stoney beck
The small birds drink
The cows walk through
The flies just hovering
The morning dew.

The rabbit's sit, but watching close
The deer from the woodland slowly approach
The pheasants, with its entire bright colour
The wood pigeons call
To talk to each other

The butterfly's dance, on the breeze to the flowers
The sun shines hot, then comes april showers
There is one at its best
You can hear all the time
It's got a sting like a punch, as it looks for its lunch
And the honey it makes tastes divine.

The meadows complete, a job done and so neat
As they pollinate the flowers
The butterflies, and the bees
And those wet april showers.

Talent

I can say this from my heart
Put in words that are free
With a sentence so long, a poem, a song
To construct in a way you can read.
For my thoughts to run wild
A talent so unique
The poems just flow
To put them on show
All for the people to see
To say it with meaning and hope it's appealing
To write with a spirit so free
To join them together some people say is clever
It's a gift or a talent given to me.

Potion

I had to whisper something
Right into your ear
It came from only my lips
Not a person near
What I had to say
Was I believe the truth?
It came from my heart
It really sounded smooth
You really smell so nice
It's a fragrance I adore
If I could bottle this
I think? I need some more
For it's so strong
I would have to keep for life
If I opened this one up
I would ask you to be my wife.

Caring

Loving on line a passion for friends
A friendship so great a contract commends
To see things together for the world to unite
For helping poor people with the struggle of life

Oceans between us, thoughts seem so close
Thinking the same as I do
How precious the rose
In each and all of us
There is a light shines so bright
The caring people of this world
Makes all things so nice.

United we all should be
In harmony and peace
To enjoy Gods creation
The beauty we see.

Rabbit

Oh! bunny rabbit your fur is so thick
When you sit and eat grass
Your ears do stick
Up in the air, You can hear all around
With hearing so sharp
You don't miss a sound.
Chewing fresh shoots
In the grass where they hide
They keep both ears up
Their eyes open wide.
They have little one's
Who stay on the top?
Right next to the hole
Where they can just drop
Right in side Where it's safe and calm
From dangers and people
Can do them Negative harm.

The World at Heart

To be born into this big world
See it through children's eyes
Is this world such a good place
Why do adults tell lies?

Why is life so hard?
Making a living such a task
The world united together
Working as one would make it last?

So this word we all do know
Makes life a beam of light
So keep it close to your heart
Please try not to fight.

We were put here to live our life
Enjoy the years we see
With hope in mind and year's so kind
For all eternity.

Darling

My love for you is special
I've wrapped it all in red
I send it with a big red rose
Don't let it go to your head.

You know that I do love you
I call you every day
These words I'm saying
Are special in every way.

I feel my love is stronger
I need you by my side
When I whisper these words to you
I hope you do not cry.

Just to prove my love is true
Darling you will see
I've filled your room with roses
I hope you'll marry me?

My Gem

We know the rose is something special
Stands out in all its bloom
A diamond ring is a womans thing
Darling I love you.

I've searched this earth
With hope in mind
To find this gem of mine
Then the day just standing there
Oh! boy you looked divine.

My heart it skipped and missed a beat
As I saw you standing still
To bring myself to ask you out
I hope you say you will.

But you did and things are great
I write this just to say
I've got my gem and diamond ring
Marry me today.

Perfection

I am a perfectionist
Like a cog on a machine
I strive to reach for goals
You only get in dreams.

The ones you know you'll never get
By far you will never reach
The thought of taking your first step
To something that's Unique.

I'd walk to the end of the earth
I'd even never sleep
I'd put together what you think is clever
The truth I shall always keep.

It's more than I can write
It's more than you can find
The presentation or hesitation
Perfectionist, of mankind.

To give it all you can
Your heart and consent
To do more than a human
To hit 100% percent


At the end you feel content
You've done and achieved a score
My poems they speak for themselves
And that's what "YOU" adore....

A Lady

To stand with pride intelligence rare
A smile so gorgeous
With lovely long hair.

An I.Q. so vast
A brain thats hard to match
Uinique and definitely surpassed.

A body the world admires
Put on magzines for show
A middle age lady
With a future that glows.

It's not just her brain power
A beautiful head to match
Having a birthday at christmas
Being unprecedented attracts...

If Only

I've searched deep from inside
I've looked for that special thing
I've seen that luminous glow you give
I've even heard you sing.

I've walked and wondered why
I've stood and then I seen
I've watched their eyes and seen their smiles
I've even heard them scream..

I've got to admire you
I've had to pick with ease
I've bought a suite so I can move
I've even gone week at the knees...

All is not lost
All is not found
Somethings not obtainable
Love is all around...

I've got what I wanted
I've dug from deep within
I've heard a person whispering
If only I could sing...

Princess

Instinct gut reaction a feeling inside
Radiating love I know you can't hide
A Passion to embrace
Come together as one
To hold you so delicate
Make you feel and belong.

To feel so secure
Wrapped up in my arms so tight
The warmth we are radiating
is about to ignite.

No words spoken
Your movement says it all
You look like a princess
I'm taking to the ball.

Eye's glitter like diamonds
Your heart skipps a beat
My heart is telling me
To whisk you off your feet.

A Star

To be recognised
A Joyful ordeal
To stand among your friends
They sense how you feel.

No words can express
Your emotions grow high
Standing on the stage
With tears in your eyes.

A preformance like Shakespeare
The People recognise
That's why you are nominated
You deserve first prize.

Don't swallow with pride
Just take it all in
You know your fantastic
By the trophies that you win.

My Treasure

There's something I know is special
A pain at times to bare
My love for you is in my heart
That something special we share.

I love you more than life
You have that certain glow
Your body darling is perfect
It's the things you do that flow.

Please don't change my darling
Or argue every day
It's just words that are cruel
You're not a fool
I love you in every way.

I hope by now you believe me
You're the only one I want
If I have to live in harmony
I've picked the best of the bunch.

Sweetheart feel relaxed
You've got me by your side
It's your humour that makes you blossom
Togetherness we have pride..

Planet Earth

A planet so big
A world so intense
Survival of the fittest
There's none of it pretense.

To kill to feed the young
To drink and hide from the sun
To take shade from intense heat
Or just to rest the feet.

This gorgeous world
A planet to bask
For each and every animal
To survive is just a task.

For animals unique
For species unseen
Let's keep the world beautiful
By all going green.

Golden Dream

The sun beaming down
The heat so extreme
A day so gorgeous
You know what I mean

Sitting by the poolside
With a cocktail by my thigh
The discos playing beautiful
I've got here in my eye.

Dreams are made of this
A static touch or kiss
A magic wand that you just wave
To drop me into a world of bliss.

I'm floating in a cloud
It's just like a golden dream
Why is everybody looking at us?
We are the perfect team.

Only Time

The clicks and rythms no choir to retract
The sounds they're playing
Precision intact
Instrumental united with ease
plucking of strings
Sounds on a breeze
Rain drops fall on glass,a running thrill
Tranquil music makes time stand still
In harmony and peace your thoughts are as one
Plucked like a harp, a feeling to belong
A passion to embrace
Suppress or conceal
With these beautiful sounds
It's only warmth that you feel.
Dedicated to Enya

Pop Idol

I think it's time for seduction
We need no introduction
Our touch was so electrifying
What my heart feels I was denying.

So gorgeous vivacious pure and bright
By all mankind standards
An angel burning bright.

A sound to your ears
Your heart desires more
Like a rhythm of waves
When there rolling ashore.

It all comes together
So beaufiful and bright
When the pop idol you love
Is singing on the night.

Pain

A heart ship not in the making
Life full of surprise
A path you think is straight
it's just filled with lies.

Deceit, illusions, in time just pain
The misfortune of "You", for someone to gain
Treated as foolish, planned to a tee
Integrity in shatters, thrown out to sea.

Cofidence broken intimidated and shy
To just find a corner
To sit down and cry.

This life so good, your mum said was sweet
It's full of corrupt people
Who just knock you off your feet?
I'd like to be part of things, shining so bright
A world made for humans
Where people don't fight.

Nations United

United we stand divided we fall
This beautiful earth we have it all
There is an old proverb that is a fact
In a barrel of apples there's always one bad.
Make a stand for humanity, freeze like a sculpture
Root out all the Evil, now and in the future
This earth is precious for all evil to exist
Families that are parted, fathers truly missed.
Heroes of this world, rescue teams that are fast
All the people that are missing
We will keep in our hearts.

Thrush

A thrush swoops down and lands on the grass
It starts its dance with hopes to catch
Dislodge the grass stamp down and between
To bring up the worms otherwise unseen
A tasty snack needs lots to fill
That's why these birds will not stand still
To sit on a branch and groom just right
Essential feathers they need for flight
But all in all a selection vast
A variety of birds with beauty to last
The morning breaks for these sounds to begin
Chirp out with such splendour these sounds as they sing
So small with feathers and wings to fly
Let's keep natures best and don't let them die.

Eagle

A bird flying high in the sky
Way below the clouds
With a view to say can see his prey
Way down on the ground.

A hunter and a king of the skies
The eagles domain with boundaries high
It patrols its domain with eyes like a hawk
For the birds that fall prey
From the air that they stalk

Like a bullet so swift
As it drops from a height
With its claws wide open
Theres nowhere to hide.

As it rips it apart
To give its young a good start
For the next king of the skies
A bird so unique with a curve on its beak
Thats the eagle with wide-open eyes.

The Night

Is this the night of things to come
To feel the breeze to watch the sun
To hear the cars as they go by
To see the birds and cranes so high.
Shadows the sun makes while setting down
That glorious yellow all around
The sun still warm late at night
The clear blue sky oh! What a sight.
Just like Spain you would not believe
Am I in England or being deceived
This wonderful night I can not explain
But I can see it through my eyes so clear and plain.
I wish we could have more so splendid and bright
To put smiles on faces all through the night
To keep us all happy content and relaxed
It's something God gave us and that is a fact.

Beautiful

I really do admire you
you have that precious look
when our hands joined and touched
I knew I was in Love.
You make me feel this way
I just can not explain
you give a glow which I do know
because I feel the same.
When we are together
the warmth is something more
your love ill cherish forever
you I will always adore
you are more than special
Unique in your own way
darling I will always love you
for you are what I say.

Life

Life is so sweet a dream so high
to see each day as time goes by
the air we breathe the sounds we hear
each new life born among the deer.
There's more in store to catch the eye
for everyone born, there's one to die
but this beauty natures best
a new child born out weighs the rest.
Beauty is in the creator
each child born is Mother Nature
the organs used with deep filled love
with prayers to thank the Lord Above.

A Bet

A one-pound note to take in mind
What can I buy what can I find
With interest and with luck
I might find something good.
Don’t build your hopes up too high
It’s only a pound you might cry
With this result you have to ask
My one-pound note might not last
So take a chance a pray to God
Like all the others who bet the odds
Put it down then cross them all
The horse you picked does not fall.

Car

A car is just a motor
To get us from A to B
Some people think it’s more than that
Or is it necessity.
Do we really need it?
To pollute the air we breathe
The queues of traffic get longer
This we do not need.
Lets go back to the good old days
Have a horse to pull us along
Enjoy nature’s creation
For this is where we all belong

"Say"

If you really mean it
Say it from the heart
If you can see it
Make a fresh start
Make a fresh start.

If you know it’s true
The sparkle is there
When you reach for the stars
You’re a person who cares
You’re a person who cares

If you sense an angel close
Your body starts to glow
Stay calm enjoy the feeling
It’s something you both know?

If you think of heaven above
Conceal a smile when you sign
Then you have found
What you have been searching for
You’ve had it all the time.

If by now you feel the warmth
You’ll feel relaxed and content
Then “Say” it to everyone you meet
I’m glad to be your friend
I’m glad to be your friend.

Surfing

Surfing the net, things look so new
Programs are getting harder
I don’t know what to do?
Now comes a thought spontaneity chafe
I’ve got a good friend
She’s really a good laugh.
I’ll just send here a message
That’s good, I see she’s about
I’m downloading a program
I’ll give her a shout.
As always she’s talking
I’m busy she said
I know she’s talking with a man
I wish he were dead.
What am I to do?
When her hormones are going fast
I’m starting to pull my hair out
I don’t think I'll last.
Oh! Boy I’m getting hotter
My blood is at record speed
I’m going up town now
Mother! Is there anything you need?

A Song
Sweet little Angel

She is a sweet little angel (I’m so sweet)
She is as pure as gold (pure as gold)
She’s waving her wand now (waving her wand)
So we won’t grow old (won’t grow old)

Take my hand we will walk together
Feel the sun shining down
This is the place we belong together
Where there are fields all around.

Walking down in the meadow
Insects flying all around
The sun is getting hot now
Let us sit down on the ground

She is a sweet little angel (I’m so sweet)
She is as pure as gold (pure as gold)
She’s waving her wand now (waving her wand)
So we won’t grow old (won’t grow old)

I’m just looking at her beauty
With her lovely long blond hair
I’m sitting here speechless
With her looks I just stare

I’ve moved my head towards her
Just to give her a kiss
I’ve just kissed an angel
All I feel is bliss

Take my hand we will walk together
Feel the sun shining down
This is the place we belong together
Where there are fields all around.

She is a sweet little angel (I’m so sweet)
She is as pure as gold (pure as gold)
She’s waving her wand now (waving her wand)
So we won’t grow old (won’t grow old)
So we won’t grow old (won’t grow old)

Good

I found a new inspiration
A smile sincere and bright
A look that’s so vivacious
In my arms to hold you tight

You’re a person the world admires
A picture for life to keep
The pain in my heart is unbearable
But my love for you is so deep.

A talent that flows so natural
A body that moves with ease
That’s why you connect to the people
And everybody else agrees

You move with style and distinction
The manner you’ve acquired and tamed
You’ll never have misfortune
For something you have proclaimed.

Tack

Two little words to show you care
It sounds so sweet when you’re standing there
To put it in writing at the end it looks good
Simply to thank-you is something I should

You’ve gave the world a sound to hear
That’s why today they still cheer
Two angels with voices aloud
And that’s what attracts the crowd

With harmonies so sweet
These sounds of delight
Its music you keep playing
All through the night

What’s the name of the game?
Take a chance on me
Does your mother know?
Dancing queen

I only picked four
From a selection vast
But we’re still playing ABBA
There not in the past

Pillow

You’re the one I admire
You have that certain look
My love for you is in my heart
Please come and have a look

You had a look and were amazed
Your body filled with delight
I gently put your hand on my chest
You did not jump with fright

I have to tell you what I think
I dream about you all the time
If I had the powers above
I’d surely make you mine

You have told me on a night
You can not sleep or cry
All you do is hug your pillow
And wish I were by your side

I can not leave your dreams at night
I wish I were by your side
It was love at first sight
I seen it in your eyes

I’m glad you have my photo
It’s that glance when you look
Please keep dreaming of me every night
And give the pillow a hug.

Christmas Day

The snow is like a blanket spreading all around
The flakes are coming down so fast they're lying on the ground
The children are throwing snowballs
There’s some playing on a sledge
The one's that are having real good fun
Are skating on the edge
In the room the fire blazing hot
As mother keeps an eye on the children out
But in her hand she has a glass
Of something pure and stout
There’s paper all over the floor
And presents neatly stacked
There’s mince pies sitting on the table
You can hear people as they laugh
That time as come the smells all round
The turkey has been cooked
Your senses tell you in your mind
You have to have a look
Give them a shout bring them in
Lets all sit down and dine
Christmas day is to share
And pray when things are fine

Diamond Ring

I was thinking of a gift so small and special
In that certain way
To see your eyes open up
Just on Christmas Day

To feel your kiss on my lips
That smile so wide and bright
My present has had that desired affect
I'll ask you to be my bride

I kneel before you
Stretch out my arm with luck
Your eyes see my prize
You know it's going to be good

You open it up to your delight
There's diamonds all around
I'm asking you to be my wife
"Yes" you make me proud

A Mothers Day Poem
Mother

Life is full of surprises
There’s a lot in store
For we only have one mother
One I adore.
You gave me lots
You helped me out
Stepped in when things went wrong
Oh mother dear I have to cheer
I’m so happy I could sing you a song.
There is only one on this earth
You deserve first prize
You brought me up and gave me love
You held me when I cried.
So now it’s your turn dear
This is just to say
I’ll always love you mother
My love grows more each day.

Friendship

Your friends come and go
But time moves on
The shoulder you cried with
Now has gone
But the beauty on this earth
Is some things not explained
Even not obtainable, for friendship is gained
A friend to share good times and bad
Explain things when difficult
Make you smile when you’re sad
But the best of a friend
Is the one that’s for life?
For you make all things beautiful
You are so nice.

Admiration

Admiration not desire
Affection within
To lift spirits higher
A place to begin
Technique a body with looks
Pression intact songs in your books

Admire the world
Give them a song
For the love of this planet
Is where you belong?

No one has the answer
To seek and have a look
True peace lies within
It’s a feeling so good.

Keep thoughts that are free
Use your own sight
Love your friends and the people
That’s the meaning of Life.

A Valentines Poem
Dozen Roses

The dozen I give
For you are special
You mean the world to me
My hearts content I hope you spend
The rest of your life with me
For beauty wrapped up
In a bunch for my love
I would walk to the end of the earth
My hearts at its peak
But it’s you that I seek
I hope I’m everything you deserve.

Angel

Shining bright with wings of silk
She's smaller than your hand
Dances through the air with grace
So beautiful when she stands

On my shoulder off she goes
Then rests upon my head
Sparkles then glows so bright
I think it's time for bed

Lying there in the dark
She flickers in the night
You fall fast asleep
Your Angles burning bright

Aids

The world is about children
They are the next on show
We are living like kings
They've no where to go

"Yes" Leona it's ironic to see
When food is in abundance
And you live like a Queen
A hotel is a business
With means to go on
These children have nothing
Not even a song.

Still full of joy
A smile then grief
Where are my parents?
Why can't I see?

My Darling

I do believe that God above
Created you for me to love
He picked you out from all the rest
Because he knew I love you best
I had a heart and it was true
But now it's gone from me to you
Take care of it as I have done
Cause you have two and I have none
If I go to heaven and your not there
I'll carve you name on the golden stair
I'll even back golden angels wings
Golden harps and everything
And just to prove me love is true
I'll even go to hell for you.

Know Your Heart

A heart that goes on
A heart that never stops
A heart that's doing kind things
We all call a job

This one is special
it's time taken out
To raise so much money
And share it about

We take it for granted
Each new day ahead
Please try remember
The sick in their beds

Children without parents
People left alone
If you had a heart
You'd give them a home

Think of Christmas
Be happy and joy
Think of the times
When you were a boy
Know your Heart.

The First Time

The first time I saw you smile
Your eyes sparkling bright
That smile so gorgeous
I knew it felt right

The first time our hands touch
My heart skipped a beat
You sent shivers through my spine
And a tingle in my feet

The first time I looked
You were standing with fright
As I gazed into your eyes
I knew this was right

The first time I kissed you
With lips so moist
It was exciting
That I felt rejoiced

The first time I hugged you
Alone on the night
I just wanted to kiss you
And hold you with pride

The first time with our baby
You cried all the time
But I've got no regrets
What was your fist time.

A Heart

I've been looking for weeks
Nothing is catching my eye
For something spectacular
No need to apply

Money is out of the question
For what I've got in mind
This present is so outstanding
It was given to mankind

It has to be gorgeous
Something not on show
When you have it in your thoughts
Your heart will tell you so

My love for you is in my heart
Buried really deep
My dreams are real, its what I feel
When we're both asleep

You touched my chest
I felt the love
You made me feel divine
I know you care
It's something we share
Untill the end of time
