67/M I am a disabled veteran, who enjoys sharing the poetry I write each day, for God and my wife, and many other life events. Words always come to life each day within my heart from their spirits of genuine love.
Each night when I am dreaming I tenderly think of loving you Embracing every joyful moment For I love everything you do My nightly dreams are very serene As my heart drinks of tender bliss Finding my mind easily swept away During the times we share a kiss It is such a very beautiful moment Each night my mind begins to dream Of your lovely image alive within Reminding me you are my everything And with the new day's dawning I'm never sad as my dream fades Because I know as I open my eyes Your love's reality always stays.

YOUR LOVE A BLESSING
Where have all our beautiful flowers gone Each so very special in their own way Where have all our young flowers gone Why has this world’s evil taken them away Where have all our young flowers gone Oh Lord, we miss them in so many ways And it's hard to accept the reason they left As our grief overwhelms us so much today For our souls are broken in many, many pieces While our hearts are deeply wrought with pain We know from this moment forward in our lives Nothing in our world will again be the same Where have all our little flowers gone to Though it may seem they are now far away The jewels of our lives are still very near For in our hearts, their smiles brightly stay Even as our hearts deeply weep for all of them In all their faces an angel’s smile, we'll see Knowing our Lord has embraced each one lovingly Giving their spirits the blessing of heavenly gain.

OUR FLOWERS, OUR LOSS - FOR THE MANCHESTER FAMILIES
My world was touched by his hand And its loneliness was chased away Into my world entered such happiness And a greater need for his love to stay He taught me to love all of mankind Also to love His father first of all Promising me if I did all these things Never hard would ever be my fall He filled my heart with a believing faith Which he promised I could always keep He told me not to ever  doubt again As he would always be on call for me He gave to me many sweet treasures That to others he allowed me to share He promised that even while I slept That his love would always be near.

He Will Always Be Near
Why is it each time I see you I fall in love all over again Why is it when I embrace you Loves fires will begin again Why is it each time I kiss you I want to hold you much more Why is it when I'm near to you Of one thought I am quite sure I need you like the grass the rain Or the sky above the soft clouds For without your love in my life I would not know what loves about I only know each moment I see you I will fall in love all over again And when I reach out to touch you The flames of love will still begin.

The Flames of Love
I knew you were someone special When I first saw your smile today I knew because the way you smiled In my life, you would have to stay Filling my world with the loveliness Which I greet daily when I see you I found my heart deeply falling And my mind knew not what to do I had to try to find new ways That would get you to notice me I wanted to get closer to you So my presence you would need I had to convince you, darling In my world, you had to stay I found each night as I slept Your image would never fade I knew what I was praying for Hoping you would grow a need To have me close to you in life And you too would dream of me Many new things start to happen As one begins to fall in love I say I find many pleasurable emotions Since my eyes saw you that day What I embrace now I find I need To fill my life in so many ways As love continues to grow I know Your reality of love will never fade. (April 1977)

First Memory
True love blossoms into forever pearls Polished by eternity's lasting kiss Moments that started within a tiny dream Lay on a foundation that will always last As separate hopes and dreams now become one Never having to struggle alone again Two inspired hearts both took a leap of faith For a life of love that will never end And as we reach for the others warm embrace Our lips still meet sharing a tender kiss We find that as time has gently passed How our union has become so truly blessed For we were always meant to be Forever living by the others side While our love has kept us so very close Tied together where eternity lies.

TRUE LOVE BLOSSOMS
My heart embraces you daily As your smile sweeps me away And I am now as always Of your love a willing slave It does not take much to please me For it's very easy when it comes to you You provide such simple pleasures With everything you say and do I try each day not to ever think about How my life would surely be If I spent it alone without your love Right here so very close to me So I speak each day in silent prayer To my God who has blessed me so Who graced my life daily with your tender love Making it a treasure I will not let go.

SIMPLY PUT
Your smile always makes the morning better, and there is no medicine that can lift my soul as its pure essence. For you need not speak to me with words, for your eyes show an embracing glow that lets me know how you feel. The life alive within them  lets me know I am always loved by your heart, and treasured in your thoughts You daily show no matter what happens in my life you are the only one who can make me whole.

Your Smle
Every time I bring forth Your image From deep within the well of my mind My heart begins shedding joyous tears For Your beautiful love that’s mine I can never escape feeling the emotions As they easily overwhelm me each day Just like the first time You embraced me The raging passion of my love will stay I was blessed the day You forgave me That first moment You became my friend And ever since Your spirit held me close My life changed as I was born again You have never forsaken me a single day Of all the spiritual things in life I need And I love those very special moments When together Your living word we read While I lift up my song of sweet love to You Your pure life showers of heaven’s joy begin As I humbly thank You for shedding your blood A perfect sacrifice forgiving all of our sins.

AN EASTER POEM FOR THE LORD
Lost to my eyes is the morning sun When to this day I now arise Dark clouds hovered high above As rain showers shared my skies My world was so sad and lonely With my heart much like this day For you are far away from me Yes so far from where I now lay It is really hard for me to begin Facing the sadness of this new day When usually It starts with a smile The one which takes my breath away And I find its so very hard to do Getting myself ready to go to work For I am always greeted by your smile But loneliness close to me now lurks Its tentacles quietly try to entrap me Placing its many wares into my mind Though I try to overcome sad thoughts I find myself overwhelmed over time Lost to my eyes is your priceless smile This cold day when from our bed I arose That even Shakespeare could never capture My mood, in sweet succulent lines of prose.
