A Delicate Flower

~I’ve been the world all around

known beautiful women in every town~

~Yvonne in particular I must confess

is like picking a delicate flower I can’t resist~

~She hails from Munich Germany within

for her this very poem is being written~

~Like the Rose her smile blooms but in love

giving me the feeling of wanting of~

~The Lily long slender and dressed in white

is as her lengthy body built just right~

~Her eyes green like that of the Cone flower

stole my heart with their enchanting power~

~Her lips full and sweet like that of the Honey suckle

juices of her kiss likened to sugar there’s no rebuttal~

~Her heart is pure brings to light sensations

she blushes in the many colors of the Carnations~

~Like the Wild flower blowing in the wind

her beauty to there is no end~

~Her perfume lingers the scent of Cherry blossoms

and her skin softer than that of the best of Cotton~

~Like that which is radiant in the Morning Glory

her smiles fills my soul with but a love story~

~And as the Mistletoe the flower of affection

she seems to draw my total love and devotion~ 

~The perfect woman in every way 

beautiful as any flower on display~ 

~I will endeavor to tend to her every need and

cultivate her garden of flowery desire the best I can~ 

~Not to be picked as she is an endangered species

a delicate and precious flower in Germany~

I Desire You!

 

~Always for you I’ve got desire

my blood runs hot as if on fire~

~My heart races in locomotion

and brings to lust my every emotion~

~Shiver I do when thinking of you

I want to make love with you I do~

~I think of how your luscious lips

taste as honey so sweet your kiss~

~And how your body brings to me

from within delight so Heavenly~

~You’ve filled my heart with not but love

my thoughts are you and all I think of~

~A dream come true you entered my life

fulfilling my wish becoming my wife~

~You treat like a man should be

with love respect and dignity~

~You leave me breathless and in a daze

in all you do I am amazed~

~You are my day you are my night

of all my life you are the light~

~No man on earth’s more lucky than me

no man on earth can ever be~

~To have to hold and know you’re mine

with a heart a soul and beauty divine~

~I’m blessed you see to have you be

in my life the better half a part of me~

In All Of God's Beholdened World

 ~In all of God’s beholdened world

I’ve found the most wonderful girl~

~She’s Heaven sent has to be

she walks through life Angelically~

~She’s taken my heart and made it whole

and filled the emptiness within my soul~

~She’s every beat of my heart every breath I take

she’s given me hope of a new life to make~

~I belong to her and she to me

together we’ll make true our destiny~

~Angels are sent from Heaven above

this one God sent to me to love~

~To have and to hold to keep safe

from this God’s will I’ll not strafe~

~Through the light of the day and in the dark of night

I’ll protect this Angel with all my might~

~And if my life should happen to come to an end

my soul will stay on earth and not ascend~

~I’ll stay behind and wait for her

guarding her path from all danger~

~And when the day comes to be

we’ll be together for all eternity~

My Dream Girl

~Many years past long ago

I dreamt of a girl my heart foretold~

~She was blonde beautiful but younger than me

set my soul on fire and made me believe~

~That possible was love to be had again

and made me feel so very much like a man~

~She spoke like an Angel gentle and soft

sent my every emotion flying aloft~

~My body tingled my heart would race

for this girl sent from Heaven so full of grace~

~A gift from God the dream’s come to pass

in my heart this girl is living at last~

~She gives me hope when I am weak

with every breath of a word she does speak~

~Like the dream blonde but more beautiful is she

no more lovelier in this world could there ever be~

~My heart does race my emotions run wild

I feel giddy and happy much like a child~

~I think only of her throughout every day

and how to bring her happiness in every way~

~She’s the wind beneath my wings the air I breath

to her love my life I do hereby bequeath~

~She’s given me reason where I’ve had none

and the strength in my soul to carry on~

~I’m beckoned to her each and every call

and would without hesitation give her my all~

~I believe in my heart we were meant to be

and she's truly my soul mate and destiny~

My Heart Yearns For Affection

~My heart yearns for affection

the desires of my soul's resurrection ~

~To burn inside once again

so very long has it been~

~My love is in need of another

soon it will flicker and smother~

~Like the fire it needs to be fed

or the flame will die and will not spread~

~My need is strong I cannot wait

what lyes within my destined fate~

~I ask only one thing of thee

help me end this misery~

Thoughts Of A Lonely Man

 

~I feel a part of me going away

with each and every passing day~

~My life has become empty without love

like the heart in my chest’s been torn out of~

~My soul’s become restless for a mate

to lye dormant should not be it’s fate~

~My loneliness is faltering on unbearable

every day passing I become more irritable~

~I’m to the point of loosing sannity

and in my life it’s causing calamity~

~I can no longer keep on going

never again in my life love knowing~

~Please God end it one way or another

give me death or give me a lover~

Joetta

 

~Tonight I received a pleasant surprise

that nearly brought tears to my eyes~

~My little girl called me just to say

Daddy I love you by the way~ 

I guess sometimes I feel forgotten

by my children naturally begotten~

~I love each and every one of them

and at times I wish them young again~

~I miss holding and giving them my love

sometimes when alone that’s all I think of~

~I wasn’t there for them much of the time

circumstances dictated I leave them behind~

~I love my children now as I did then

and I’ll love my children when I meet my end~

~My little girl is a mom with two of her own now

sometimes putting me in a state of awe and wow~

~She’s always been her Daddy’s little girl

 and always will be until I leave this world~

              ~I Love You Jojo~

Daddy's Little Girl

 

~In the heart of every Father

resides a special bond with his daughter~

~There’s nothing in this world

he wouldn’t do for Daddy’s little girl~

~When Daddy’s little girl is in need

for her his heart will bleed~

~If she’s in trouble Daddy’s there

no matter what or anywhere~

~When she needs a strong shoulder to cry on

always to Daddy she will run~

~Every boy in her life better pass muster

God help him if he dishonors her luster~

~Mom is there for the facts of life

but it’s Daddy she runs to for advice~

~Daddy’s there for her every step of her life

even putting her before his wife~

~Mom brought her into this world on that special day

but it will be up to Daddy to give her away~

~The first dance will belong to Daddy~

God Made Mothers Special

 

~God made a mother in a special way

in this poem this I’ll portray~

~He gave her strength from within to give childbirth

a pain only she can bare on this earth~

~And to deal with the many rejections that her child will give

to her over the years she’ll willingly forgive~

~ Strong shoulders to carry the weight of the world

yet gentle enough to comport her little boys and girls~

~Hardness to keep going on when everyone else gives up

and to care for them with no complaints when illness has struck~

~Sensitivity to love them whether they’ve been good or bad

even through the times they’ve made her sad~

And to help the pain of her child’s boo boo to go away

and her teenager through anxieties and fears of every day~

~The knowledge of laughter to make the sadness disappear

and turn it into happiness and cheer~  

~The tears to shed whenever needed in times of crisis

those are her only weakness~

~Finally he reserved a special place in Heaven

for when her time on earth has come to an end~

-Take time to tell your mother you love her today-

What Do I Think?

~I was asked the question today,

of my opinion of those who’re gay~

~Evident is my political affiliation,

curious was he of my views on gay persuasion~

~I answered that my views aren’t typical,

nor are they based on what’s political~

~Raised was I by a good and decent mother,

I was taught we’re all sisters and brothers~

~It’s not mine nor anyone else’s place,

to make judgement on sexual preference or race~

~That’s reserved for our Lord at world’s end,

when he makes judgement of mankind’s sin~

~I’m straight but have friends of both sexes who’re gay,

and doesn’t bother me in any way~

~The same goes for racial ethnicity, 

we’re all of our God’s creativity~

~It sickens my every bit of being,

the prejudice in this world I’m seeing~

~Be you gay be you bi or be you sraight,

in this world we’re all of the same fate~

We’re born and in the end we’ll all die,

so why not get along while we’re alive~

~Yes I’m Republican and proud to be,

But never do I practice bigotry~

~What do I think of being gay,

~we’re all God’s children in every which way~

~I’m Conservative but my thoughts are my own,

sometimes having to stand alone~

~In my heart I believe I’m right,

and for my beliefs I will fiercely fight~

~The right to choose is the right of our land,

and belongs to every woman and every man~

Ellen DeGeneres

 

~I love Ellen DeGeneres,

in my mind there’s none more hilarious~

~I like the way she dances for her audience,

she commands perfection of her performance~

~Ending the dance holding herself in the air,

by her arms as she sits in the chair~

~Completing the act in slow motion,

and always receiving a standing ovation~

~Her eyes are a curious shade of blue and mysterious,

giving the Ellen look it’s impossible to know if she’s serious~

~Her smile shows great affection for all her fans,

no heart bigger than her’s in all the land~  

~Laughter cures the soul of sadness within,

recommended is always a good dose of Ellen~

~Happiness has eluded me on many occasions,

was found because of this Diva’s aspirations~

~So when you’re troubled and dismayed, 

she’ll treat the symptoms to take them away~  

~This Queen of Comedy’s put on many a smiling face,

 taking away sadness making this world a better place~

 Thanks Ellen;

Duke Sherman
