Poems by Ciana R. Lewis

If words can mean so much,
And prove my love for you,
I'll never lose my touch,
And my love will be ever new.

Words, there are a lot,
Yet good ones are so few
To describe the love I've got,
For my dearest darling, you.

If hugs and kisses are gold,
And can keep you always close,
My love will never run cold,
Since you're the one I love the most.

Hugs can connect our hearts,
Kisses unite our souls,
And we'll never be apart,
If grace on us God bestows.

If I am your everything,
I who am but dust,
Then to you I'll ever cling,
My treasure that will never rust.

For I do not deserve any love at all,
Yet you have made me your love,
And for you I cannot help but fall,
For you are a blessing from above.

Eternity starts with me and you,
And may it never end,
May it remain faithful and true,
And may you always be my life, love, and best friend.

Is hope gone?
Is friendship lost?
Am I wrong?
Or is this what true love costs?

Like the ancient days of long ago,
We were at one time best friends.
You raised me up when I was low.
We'd be together till the end.

Like the ides of eternity,
Like the sun's bright glow,
Like the flower and the bee,
Was our friendship, now flown.

You drifted and I pulled.
Harsh words came; bonds broke.
Who was wise? Who played the fool?
Too late to say; damage already spoke.

It was I who said I'd always be your friend.
You said you would strive to be a better man.
Was what we said just foolish pretend?
Or was it true-did we misunderstand?

I refuse to give up our treasure.
Although all seems lost,
I will continue to love you without measure
And win you back, whatever it costs.

Only God knows how this will end.
He alone knows how much I love you.
He knows you're my precious friend.
He knows, too, that I am sad and blue.

I come to you with an open heart and mind,
Asking you to forget everything that's bad
And to remember our friendship, blessed and kind.
Don't forsake me, don't hurt me, don't leave me sad.

I simply want to say my love for you
Is as deep as the ocean, high as the sky,
Longer than eternity, soft as the dew,
Warm as the sun, sweet as the sparrow's cry.

Don't forget me,
Love me true.
Please believe me;
I LOVE YOU.

'Tis the season for warmth and cheer,
To be with our family and those we hold dear.
But what if we are miles away?
What if we can't be there on Christmas day?

We could send a beautiful Christmas card,
A glittery ornament that shines like a star,
A tin of cookies so warm and sweet,
But there's only one gift that makes it complete.

It's sent through the snowflakes in the air,
Through an angel's peaceful and heavenly prayer,
Through the verdant Christmas tree,
Through the Holy Babe, sleeping peacefully.

This gift is magical in every way.
It only comes on Christmas day.
It's what makes us truly rich;
A heartfelt, loving Christmas wish.

It's bright and big like the Bethlehem star.
It stretches wide and travels far.
It's the first snow of Christmas day.
It's the sun's warm and hopeful ray.

This precious gift I gladly send.
It's a Christmas wish to my family and friends:
May love, peace, and joy in your lives stay,
And may you have a Merry Christmas - always!

A cake with a lit candle,
Presents with ribbons and bows,
A bike with pink, glittery handles,
A little girl who grows and grows.

What will you wish for, my love,
On this, your very special day?
Send your wish to God above.
It will come true if you pray.

As you blow out the candle, my dear,
I'll make a wish for you too.
I'll whisper it so you won't hear,
That way I know it will come true.

My wish for you is like sunshine,
Warm, cheery, and full of delight,
My wish is the starlight, soothing and fine,
Which lights up the dark, dreary night.

May God follow you always,
May the path always be clear,
And may you have a happy birthday
This day and all through the years.
