Baby Jesus, Child Of Love
- Published: December 2021
in Christmas Poems

Baby Jesus, child of love,
born of Mary, child of God,
born this night to bring us light,
God with us, Emmanuel.

Baby Jesus, child of love,
born of Mary, child of God,
born this night to bring us light,
God with us, Emmanuel.

Bells ring out, a child is born.
Angels sing out, "Christ the Lord!"
All on Earth rejoice His birth,
a Child of love, the Promised One.

Hope was born this silent night,
dark no more, eternal light.
He came to bring us saving grace,
a child of love, the Holy One.

Word made flesh this holy night,
Living Promise, Lord Divine.
Bringing peace, goodwill to men,
a child of love, the Chosen One.

Born this night, this sacred night
Jesus Christ, the Lord Most High,
came to save and show the way,
a Child of love, the Son of God.

Memories Of A Special Friend

in Loss of a Friend Poems

Every day you cross my mind in memories that I treasure
like the times we use to travel and cook and the times we sang together.
I never got to say goodbye, but I'll never stop talking to you
and let you know how my day is going and share a memory or two.

Every day you cross my mind in memories that I treasure
like the times we use to travel and cook and the times we sang together.
I never got to say goodbye, but I'll never stop talking to you
and let you know how my day is going and share a memory or two.

You had such a beautiful life with family and with friends.
Your love of life brought light to us we hoped would never end.
Your beauty was beyond compare in kindness and in love,
and I promise that the love you gave will always be passed on.

I know you now belong to God, but your love and light remain.
I know you walk beside me because you're never far away.
I am trying to live without you and to mend a heart that's grieving
by filling the sadness in my heart with faith and spiritual healing.

There is always something there that reminds me so much of you
and the times we spent together, which were more than just a few.
You were always the dearest friend who brought out the best in me,
and you always made me feel I was a part of your family.

I loved your gentle presence and your warm inviting hugs.
You were a once in a lifetime friend who was, oh, so very much loved.
We were making memories to remember when we were having fun.
Memories that I look back on and remember one by one.

No one can ever take your place. You were one of a kind.
You were very special. You're not far from my mind.
You left so unexpectedly. The loss was beyond tears.
But I hold on to my faith in God remembering you in my prayers.

I miss our times together because I smiled a whole lot more.
You were one of my greatest gifts. You were someone I adored.
And when you are looking down from the gates of Heaven above,
know that my memories will keep you forever alive with love.

Every Dream Leads Me To You

Dreams That Lead You To One Special Person

in Romantic Poems

When a vision of perfect happiness comes into view,
I know every dream leads me to you.
As I lie down to sleep under the stars that shine,
I dream of a time when you are mine.

When a vision of perfect happiness comes into view,
I know every dream leads me to you.
As I lie down to sleep under the stars that shine,
I dream of a time when you are mine.

I desire to know your soft loving touch
and for you to know I love you so much.
You are my love and heart's greatest dream.
You are every wish I make it seems.

I dare to envision a time together
and a chance to share our bodies in pleasure.
You're what my fantasies are always made of
as I'm lost in dreams where we love to make love.

I have a dream and only time will tell.
if all my aspirations are alive and well.
I will fight for my dream and risk everything
if that's what it takes to live out my dream.

I am a dreamer believing dreams can come true
knowing every dream I have leads me to you.
This sensation of excitement can only mean
I'm feeling I'll soon be living the dream.

What Makes Someone The Love Of Your Life

To the love of my life, I want you to know
I carry you in my heart wherever I go.
My heart has always been and will always be with you
because I waited all of my life to love someone like you.

To the love of my life, I want you to know
I carry you in my heart wherever I go.
My heart has always been and will always be with you
because I waited all of my life to love someone like you.

You are every dream I've ever had yesterday and today.

I found my Heaven here on Earth when you hold me in your arms.
Every part of my being desires you. You're my wish upon a star.

You are my greatest treasure and you're my only one.
I will never get tired of loving you and my love will never fade.
I choose to fall in love with you each and every day.

To the love of my life, you touch and hold my heart.
I start each day thinking of you and you're my very last thought.
You are my life and my love, and I don't want it any other way.
My life is beautiful because of you now and for always.

Feeling Of Christmas

The Joy Of The Christmas Season

in Christmas Poems

Do you feel the joy when silver bells are ringing
and when you hear the voices of Christmas carolers singing?
Do you feel in awe of the night sky's brightest star,
and feel the blessing that Christmas brings deep inside your heart?

Do you feel the joy when silver bells are ringing
and when you hear the voices of Christmas carolers singing?
Do you feel in awe of the night sky's brightest star,
and feel the blessing that Christmas brings deep inside your heart?

Do you feel excited when trimming the Christmas tree,
and when the gifts are placed beneath and feeling a sense of glee?
Do you feel the bliss from mistletoe hanging above
when you get a Christmas kiss from someone you love?

Do you feel a calmness hanging a wreath upon the door,
and hope the feeling of Christmas will remain forevermore?
Do you feel the warmth of a yuletide log that's burning,
and feel the spirit of Christmas with every season's greeting?

Do you feel the peacefulness of a gentle falling snow,
and feel the love of Christmas in your heart and in your soul?
Do you feel inspired when carols are being sung,
and do you feel happiness when stockings are being hung?

Do you feel the kindness of people in their sharing,
and feel the excitement of the season when wrapping gifts you're giving?
Do you feel the comfort of sharing dinner with Christmas treats,
and feel the goodness of family and friends as you pray and eat?

Do you feel the serenity from the glow of Christmas candles,
and feel the miracle of Christmas from the Nativity on the mantle?
Do you feel the Christmas goodwill from a giving heart this season,
and do you feel peace and joy knowing Jesus is the reason?

What If
- Published: November 4, 2023
What If Friends Into Lovers

in Just Friends Poems

What if I belonged to you and you belonged to me
and what if there's a future together that's not a fantasy.
What if riding a wave of ecstasy
is how it could be for you and me.

What if I belonged to you and you belonged to me
and what if there's a future together that's not a fantasy.
What if riding a wave of ecstasy
is how it could be for you and me.

What if friends turned into lovers
and we gave into passion for one another.
What if choices made are not a mistake
and won't cause sadness or extreme heartache.

What if two hearts can blend together
and heal and protect and care for each other.
What if two hearts can beat in harmony
and be happy together in a new life journey.

What if we're only scratching an itch
or if desire will remain too much to resist.
What if we fit together perfectly
Heart, mind, soul and sexually.

What if the best is yet to come
but we're stuck in the past that we can't move from.
What if we could find a way
to a new life waiting for us one day.

What if we found happiness in simple things
like holding hands, talking, or just simply sing.
What if our future is the good ole days
where happiness, laughter and desire come to play.

What if our days are in passionate surrender
and we treat each other with desire and tender.
What if we grab this chance as a precious gift
and turn our lives into the 'What if".

Our Friendship Goes Beyond
- Published: November 6, 2023
A Special Friendships With A Bond

in Special Friend Poems

When days seem dark and it feels like rain,
you bring your light to brighten the day.
You bring a ray of sunshine along with hope
whenever times get rough and it's hard to cope.

When days seem dark and it feels like rain,
you bring your light to brighten the day.
You bring a ray of sunshine along with hope
whenever times get rough and it's hard to cope.

You are charming, kind, funny and sweet.
Being crazy with you is hard to beat.
You always understand just how I think.
It doesn't matter if I'm sober or drink.

You make me smile and you make me laugh.
You make me feel whole instead of half.
I treasure our crazy days together.
It's the simple things I always remember.

When we share a laugh or joke or two,
these are the times I cherish with you.
Not to mention the food brought to share
that let me know you also care.

Your friendship gives comfort I'm not alone
to face my fears and tackle the unknown.
You're someone in my life that can't be replaced
either by time, distance, or even space.

Whenever we're together something just clicks
We feed off each other and have to think quick.
I have a deep affection and we have a bond
not many people share that our friendship goes beyond

Heart Storm
- Published: November 30, 2023
Can Love Survive A Fight

in Relationship Poems

When thunder and lightning begin to collide
to rock our world and cause a divide,
we'll hold on tight through the twists and turns
and remember the love inside us that burns.

When thunder and lightning begin to collide
to rock our world and cause a divide,
we'll hold on tight through the twists and turns
and remember the love inside us that burns.

Heart storms expose our imperfections and flaws
while weaknesses and faults bring out our claws.
Love in the midst of any heart storm
becomes the calm after in its tender form.

I will always need that part of you
that never let's go when a heart storm brews.
You are the lifeboat in the midst of distress
when love gets tough and becomes a mess.

After the heart storm, we won't be the same.
Even after the toughest storm there's still a little rain.
A rainbow is waiting to bring beauty and hope
to calm our heart storm and help us cope.

Love is the shelter in a heart storm.
Love keeps us safe and keeps us warm.
Because weathering the storms of love
will bring our heart storm to a calm.

Remembering My First Love

in Hurting Poems

Do you remember me like I remember you
and wonder how our lives might be if we had said “I do”?
If I could hear those three little words that made my life complete,
my heart would know what my ears had heard and probably skip a beat.

Do you remember me like I remember you
and wonder how our lives might be if we had said “I do”?
If I could hear those three little words that made my life complete,
my heart would know what my ears had heard and probably skip a beat.

Ours was a love story to remember
from the cold dark winters to warm summer weather.
Because of you, memories still linger
of the promise ring you placed on my finger.

You needed to find your place in this world,
even if it meant with some other girl.
I knew I had to let you go
even though I loved you so.

Remember our last sad goodbye?
Our hearts were broken. Tears burned our eyes...
So the hardest thing I’ve ever done was to accept we had to part.
But I hope you will remember you’ll always have my heart.

And so we kissed and we embraced,
and then I memorized your face.
You walked away to catch your flight
but not before we held on tight.

We both moved on and found new lovers.
I married one. You live with another.
Life is not always what is meant to be,
but I will hope, and dream, and always believe.

Imagining you lying next to me
is only a dream, a fantasy.
And only God knows how I’d feel
if all of my dreams could turn out real.

You are always with me.
You live inside my heart.
And there you will always be
and never would we part.

I will always love you
and I will always care.
You changed my life forever.
You’re my one true love affair.

You always knew how to ignite the fire.
You’ll always be my one desire.
It is always you I’m thinking of.
You'll always be my long-lost love.
