Poems by Shelagh Bullman

What do I see in you? Oh boy. Oh boy,
I see mountains and rivers, a lifetime of joy,
I see the sun shining on the greyest day,
I see clouds of silver lining my way,

What do I see in you? Oceans of blue,
Colourful rainbows, morning dew,
Trees of glory displaying leaves of green.
I see goodness and beauty in all living things.

I hear creatures of darkness prowling the night,
But I'm safe in your arms as you hold me real tight.
I feel the whispers of the wind entwining my soul.
I feel you breathing, that makes me whole.

I hear the rain falling and the sun on my face.
I feel the shadows of darkness as me you embrace.
I feel happiness and laughter, tears and sorrow,
But without you, my love, there would be no tomorrow.

I feel thunder and lightning whenever you're near.
I feel whispers of love wind brings to my ear,
But of all of the things that nature may bring,
It's your love I cherish above everything.

Thinking of you fills me with a wonderful feeling.
Your tender love, your warm embrace,
Your sweet kisses,
I love your touch,
Your gentle nature and loving heart.
I love the way you smile
And the way your eyes sparkle
When you laugh.
I adore the sound of your voice,
Strong and enduring.
The sweetest sound is your name,
As I say it over and over again.
You have allowed me to open up my heart.
You taught me how to love,
trust, live, and to smile again.
You have brought so much into my life.
I never thought I could feel this way again.
Now I see a perfect life ahead.
New places for my heart to explore.
New thoughts, new memories, new feelings.
Feelings that go far beyond expressions.
I can't stop myself from holding back the tears.
Tears of happiness, of a love so strong.
It surges through my heart like a storm.
Each tear falls warm upon my face,
And I smile,
Such a perfect love we have for each other.
You fill my life with joy and laughter,
With dreams and with the promise
Of a new tomorrow.
I will forever be indebted to you.
You have changed my life.
You have captured my heart.
You now hold the key.
Your love I will live and die for.
I will treasure each and every moment
I spend with you,
And I promise to love you for the rest of my life.
Because my eternal love...you complete me.

One word can start a friendship,
One kiss a love affair,
One smile can bring you laughter,
One hug can show you care,
One wave of your hand can say hello,
One tear can make you cry,
One gentle touch can warm a heart,
One dream can make you fly,
One song can bring back memories,
One thought sees brighter days,
One wish can bring colourful rainbows,
One good deed can bring you praise,
One moon can light your darkness,
One star can guide your soul,
One step will start each journey,
One hope to make your goal,
One hand to hold in friendship,
One heart that's kind and true,
One Love...One friend, is all you need,
It's really up to you.
