The Hope Of Newborn Bring

~You are the sun be mid of day

you warm my heart be your array~

~You are the breath her gentle wind

you are the kiss be Heaven send~

~You are the moon be dark of night

you are the light be of my life~

~You are the stars be flood the sky

you are my what my every why~

~You are my wake be that the morn

you are my sleep my dream adorn~

~You are my thought be into day

unto the fall of night gives way~

~You are the scent in fills the room

you are the flowers be full in bloom~

~You are the hope of newborn bring

you are the song the mothers sing~

~You are the tender be that of love

you are my prayer to God above~

You Are My Epiphany

My Darling;

~Be all you are my start of day

~Imbued of incense filling air

~In that you are my day transcend

the morning noon unto the end~

~The fall of day the rise of moon

be that you are my night in bloom~

~Stars be bright the scape of sky

~You are the peace my end of night

My Life Be Empty

~My life be empty not for you

you are of what in all I do~

~You are the sun that rises morn

my life be that you have adorn~

~Of that the Moon you are the light

that shines so bright within the night~

~The stars the sky that guides the way

when we are lost and gone astray~

~My blood runs hot in through my veins 

within my heart for you love reigns~

~In that you are my every thought

of all I do and all I want~

~You are my soul in Heaven’s wait

without of you Hell be my fate~

~You give me reason in that to be

of that you are my destiny~

~In all you do of all you give

you are the reason in that I live~

~And if I die before I wake

I’ll wait for you at Heaven’s gate~

~My love for you will always be

forever more eternity~

For Eternity and Next A Day

~No life have I with not of you

I say you this my Darling true~

~I love you more than words be said

you are for me my daily bread~

~The blood that flows within my veins

and all there is that keeps me sane~

~The every beat of that my heart

the strength my soul you are rampart

~The air of which that I must breath

to keep your love I would bequeath~

~The sun that warms and gives Day light

the very moon that shines at night~

~The stars that guide the sailor’s way

the beauty their marvel on display~

~My every wonder is that of you

 my reasoning for all of that I do~

~For you my Darling are my life

loving you but grows in rife~

~No life have I with not of you

life without you I would not do~ 

~All I mentioned this poem above

cannot compare how great my love~

~I love you more than words can say

for all eternity and next a day~

I Was A Bit Jealous

I seen you with him the other day,

I was a bit jealous I must say!

I couldn’t help but to remember,

a night not long ago so tender!

It was you and I walking hand in hand,

only stopping to draw our names in the sand!

It was Sunset at Imperial Beach,

we were just out of the water’s reach!

It was the first time I said: I loved you,

and confessed to you all I wanted to do!

We made plans for our lives that night,

and made love until the morning’s light!

I had to go to work that day,

but you asked and I stayed!

What happened to us I don’t know,

but with you I so wanted to grow old!

Now I see you with another man,

and I try to understand!

But I’m still in love with you,

and there’s no other I want to pursue!

My life has become a lonely one,

and I reget some of the things I’ve done!

But being with you for the time we had,

is the only part of my life that wasn’t bad!

and for the time we were together,

my life was all that much better!
