"Shared Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Don't ever say those special words
you think I wanna hear
Unless you speak them from your heart,
four words, "I love you, Dear"!

Just mean them like no other words
true love one can't define;
Unless they feel just what we share,
pure love like yours and mine!

Don't ever leave me when you're mad
not one foot out the door;
Let's make amends before you go,
don't ever leave me sore!

Don't take our love for granted once,
true love for only one;
Don't put it off, just say it now,
tomorrow may not come!

So love me now 'til day is done,
just show me how you care;
Make every moment count the best,
in love, this love we share!

"Gift of Love"
Kenny Whiting Dec 2016
I can't afford to buy you much,
  A house no car or diamond rings;
But one thing that will mean the most,
   So far above expensive things.

It's giv'n to you with gentlest touch,
   a present from my heart;
It swells with time o'er days and years,
   and grows when were apart.

It fights to win each battle met,
   it burns with hottest flame;
It's brought to life, renewed each day,
   just spoken with your name!

You see it's HUGE, not just from me,
   it's sent from Heav'n above,
My God Himself formed just for you,
   the present of my love!
Give someone the most precious thing on earth this Christmas...your love!!!

"Masterpiece Called Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I'd like to paint a picture now,
   a photo of just us;
To pen the words, the feelings of
   this masterpiece called love!

The sun is shining bright today
   white diamonds on the seas
The birds all chirping joyful sounds
   while soaring in the breeze!

The sky so blue, not one small cloud,
   horizon meets the land;
Soft waves are washing on the shore
   our footprints in the sand!

Your gorgeous eyes are pinned on me,
   still can't believe you're mine,
To kiss your soft and tender lips
   no words could 'ere define!

I pull you in to hold you close
   to whisper in your ear;
Just all the things you mean to me
   just how I love you Dear!

Not many people on this earth
   have love to ours compare;
A special kind, the best of loves,
   true love, the love we share!

"Forever Memories"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
So why'd you have to leave me now,
this moment FAR too soon;
Your time on Earth but for a day,
from morning just till noon!

You lived your life so full of joy
in just a few short years;
These thoughts of you still bring a smile
yes, even through the tears!

You made the best of life itself,
could handle anything;
You keep me sailing high each day-
the wind beneath my wings!

Not sure how I will make it now,
I'm feeling oh so cold;
I feel I had you next to me,
just not so long ago!

I know you're with my Jesus now,
you're walking Heaven's shore;
Though I still miss you everyday,
I'm healing more and more!

I'll hold your memory close to me,
those hugs so full of love;
I'll see you soon when trumpets sound,
My Angel up above!

"God is There"
Kenny Whiting Apr 2016
I've heard My God's the Keeper of,
   the sun, the moon and stars;
Yet never loses track of you,
   He knows right where you are!

My God created everything,
   He made all living things;
Yet never leaves you all alone,
   just call on Him, you'll see!

He rules the earth from up above,
   He's sitting on His throne;
Just call on Him from bended knee,
   He'll make His presence known!

You ever feel you are alone,
   you'll see His Word is true,
Just follow what is written there,
   then watch, He'll  comfort  you!

"Just Why"
Kenny Whiting Apr 2016
Every morning as I wake up,
   I get on my knees and pray;
As I talk to God My Father,
   never knowing what to say.

I have studied and I've listened,
   'Bout so many types of prayer;
There's one thing never questioned,
   that My God is always there!

Yes His door is always open,
   He will always lend an ear;
You will feel His presence with you,
   as you pray, He'll draw you near!

For He wants so bad to hold you,
   in His loving arms outstretched;
He will answer if you ask Him,
   and your life will be so blessed!

For He wants to hear from each one,
   of His sheep all in His flock;
You can bet you'll never miss Him,
   'cause He answers 'round the clock!


Don't you dare forget to praise Him,
   Our Almighty Faithful God;
For not one time in your life,
   has He ever you forgot!

If you'll open up all to Him,
   He will fill your last request;
If you don't know how to handle things,
   just ask, He knows what's best!

"This Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
We've chatted now for quite sometime
we've made it work our way;
We've learned so much about each one
grown closer day by day!

We've shared some things that might of hurt
we've talked for hours on end;
We've shed some tears and laughed at times,
grown closer than just friends!

It may be quick to feel this way;
my mind is now at ease;
One feeling in my heart I know,
true love and inner peace!

We've said it now, these simple words
yet words all from the heart;
I found it's true a man CAN fall
though many miles apart!

There's still so much we've yet to learn.
those little things we do;
But know we found one common thing,
this love 'twixt me and you!

"Every Moment"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
When you wake up every morning
with your loved ones by your side,
Thank the Lord and God who made you
take each breath you've left in stride!

Hold so tight each one your loved ones,
hug and kiss them everyday;
For you never know the time
when each one could pass away!

Yes He blessed us with each moment,
every hour spent with them;
Live each moment like your last one
with each family, love or friend!

When they're called up Home to Heaven,
called to stroll in Beulah land;
Be so thankful for each second,
every minute that you had!

Only grieve but for a moment
though you'll miss them everyday;
Keep each memory that you made then
firmly in your heart to stay!

"Portrait of Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Let's stop to take a picture now;
a memory for all time;
To capture now in black and white
this love of yours and mine!

There's not a word been written down
by any man on earth;
To best describe in layman's terms
what love is really worth!

They've tried their best to pen the words,
but words not near enough;
So let's describe in picture form.
with a photo of just us!

Let's take this world by storm ourselves,
with love that most don't find;
To share the word, to spread true love,
one portrait to define.

To show the world what real love is:
a Blessing from above;
A gorgeous gift from God, Himself,
His Masterpiece of Love!

"God's Mortal Arms of Love"
Kenny Whiting Dec 2016
When life seems hard or all a mess,
   you're struggling once again;
You'll find such truth where God has said
   He's closer than a Friend!
    
He's placed but every one of us
  in just a certain spot,
To be here for someone in times
  they feel Gods love is naught!

It takes us all o do our part,
   to help each other out;
To be God's mortal arms of love,
   to hug away all doubt.

You follow when God leads you,
   you'll find it's you He'll bless;
And yes, He'll send someone for you,
   in times your life's a mess.

So when you see a soul in need,
   your time will be enough;
Just wrap them up and hold them close
   with simple words of love!

"Find Everything in God"
Kenny Whiting Apr 2016
My God has all the answers,
   if you'll go to Him in prayer;
He will fill you full of wisdom,
   and your burdens He will bear!

Yes, His door is always open,
   anytime that you're  in need;
He will speak to you and then some,
   if you'll just His Scriptures read!

My God is always waiting there,
   My Lord's still on the Throne;
He'll speak to you through anything,
   you'll never be alone!

He'll be there for you now and then,
   at any time you fall;
He'll guide your way back Home with Him,
   just with His beckon call!

Oh yes, My God's the Bread of Life,
   The Ruler of All things;
You'll find My Lord will shelter give,
   and comfort 'neath His Wings!

"Just Beautiful"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2017
I take the time to tell you now,
   about this girl I know;
Rare precious gem, bright diamond type,
   her beauty all aglow.

Her heart so big, its spilling out,
   to spread around her love;
With any soul who may be down,
   soft word or gentle hug.

Her gorgeous smile will steal your heart,
   those eyes, oh goodness man;
The closest thing to angel eyes,
   this side of Glory Land!

She's special, yes, she's sent from God,
   His present from above;
If ever once you meet this girl,
   you too will fall in love!
Some times in life we come across a truly special person. When that day comes,cherish it!
Real loving people are becoming more rare! Hold onto them!!

"For You"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
For you my love, I'll do my all,
I'd live or die for you.
I'd walk around the whole wide world
to prove what love can do!

I'd steal the sun and count each star,
I'd fight through flames for you.
I'll do my best at anything
to prove my love so true!

With these few words I swear right now,
I'll be right here for you.
No matter what may come in life
come cloudy skies or blue!

For each and every breath you take
I'll be the air for you.
With arms spread always open wide
for you to run into!

If ever once you doubt my love
just think upon one clue
There's not one thing upon this earth
I wouldn't do for you!

"Victor in Life"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
When hard times come in life you live,
your back's against the wall;
They all seem big, so hard to cross
each hurdle seems too tall!

Keep focus on the prize ahead,
keep moving at your pace;
Just look ahead to cross that line
and soon you'll win life's race!

Don't 'ere lose hope, keep pressing on,
keep doing what is right;
Just charge ahead to win the war,
don't once give up the fight!

When forced to climb the mountainside,
at times you'll feel so weak;
Just forge ahead, keep looking up,
for soon you'll reach the peak!

Now at the top, just look around
to see how far you've come;
You've beat the odds, as victor now,
in life you're number One!

"Have You?"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Have you not been what you should be
as a husband, father or dad?
Have you not been any leader,
failing My God, oh-so-bad?

Have you said you will on one day,
then the next you really won't?
Have you hurt the ones who love you,
hanging with the ones who don't?

Have you pushed away your family
with the hateful words you've said?
Have you spoken words of anger
then run out the door and fled?

Have you seen the hurt you've caused them,
had a son who wished you're there?
Have you once had to console her
when your daughter cried those tears?

Have you held her tight in loving arms
when your wife had one bad day?
Have you crushed her heart again,
cause she knew you wouldn't stay?

Have yo failed your son and daughter
with the sinful life you live?
Have you ever thought about it,
what your wife has had to give?

Have you opened up your eyes now,
put yourself aside and pause?
Have you felt their broken hearts from
all the hurt and pain you caused?

Have you reached the very end now
of the sinful life you trod?
Have you seen your family needs you?
It's not too late, just turn to God!

Have you asked My God forgiveness?
Yes, your broken hearts, He'll ease.
Have you shown them what He's done now,
filled your life with joy and peace?

Have you gotten back your family,
fought so hard for those who care?
Have you prayed to God above you,
for His love with them to share?

Have you called on Him to help you,
your relationship repaired?
Have you now seen it's important
to your family if you're there?

"To Be in Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Your love is far more beautiful
than peaceful Autumn days;
It's quite a bit more brilliant
than warm and sunny days!

It's so much far more wonderful
than eagle soaring high;
It's more than pleasant to behold,
than soft clouds rolling by!

Oh yes! Your love is far more rich
than ALL the gold on Earth;
It'd blow the mind of anyone
to see your love's real worth!

It feels far more than good to me,
I've felt it from the start;
As you've broken down the walls I'd made,
you've soften hardest heart!

It's hard to say when someone asks
"just how does true love feel?";
I can't explain with any words,
this feeling that's so real!

I wished that everyone could feel
this feeling of true love;
The closest thing to Heaven on earth,
as sent from God above!

It's more than just astounding
this feeling that's so true;
It's more than just amazing
to be in Love with YOU!

"Heartfelt Smile"
Kenny Whiting Dec 2016
There are moments now and then
   when I feel I've lost the fight;
Then I see your gorgeous smile,
   and I know my world's all right!

As you smile that precious smile,
   show me love no words can say;
Share one moment by my side,
   give me strength to face each day.

I can feel it in your touch,
   I can see it in your eyes;
With a smile to pierce my heart,
   give me wings so I can fly!

Never knew I'd find this love,
   now can walk the extra mile;
Didn't know my heart could feel,
   such true love from just a smile!

"Only One"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
There's something 'bout this love of yours,
it leaves not one small doubt;
It fills me up so full of glee
and makes me want to shout!

This special kind of love you give,
so meaningful and true;
It makes it so delightful just
to spend my life with you!

It stands alone all by itself,
a love that stands so strong;
You've shown with every word and deed
each day that goes along!

Oh yes, I feel it every hour,
I never have to ask;
It flows from you so easily,
a love to always last!

When times I feel a bit alone,
with love you made it clear;
You'll never leave my side in life,
you ease my every fear!

I thank you for your special love
a love like yours and mine;
A love that happens only once
to stand all tests of time!

This love you've shown me through my life,
I know can only come
From heart that loves me without doubt,
from One and ONLY One!

"Love Lease"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
If looking for your one true love,
you'll know as their love's shown;
You'll feel for once wrapped in their arms
you're finally home sweet home!

So open up your heart just now,
I know you'll find such peace;
You'll never rent a space for love
to set your heart at ease!

Don't worry 'bout new furnishings,
bring only what you've got;
'Cause since your heart has moved in here
I found I've got a lot!

Don't take your time, just come on now,
you've got my heart rent free;
I give my love now, all to you,
to be all I can be!

I've looked all life for special love,
a love that's near divine;
A precious love so hard to find
a love like yours and mine!

So now I give all willingly
you'll never have to pry;
I'll show you best my love for you
a love you can't deny!

So get your things and move on in
and together life we'll roam;
Just sign this lifetime lease of love
my heart is now your home!

"Show You Forever"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I go through times near everyday,
these moments that just when,
I dream that day is finally here
to hold you once again!

It's not as long, from now till then,
it's just a bit more time;
I'll be right there to wrap you in
these loving arms of mine!

So hold on tight, just remain strong,
my love is worth the wait;
Just think ahead and plan it out,
to both anticipate!

'Twill be so sweet when that time comes,
into these arms you'll run;
I'll wrap you up and hold on tight,
to Forever be as One!

This love we share will last all life
our bond still holding strong;
Let's see it through till moment when
our life on Earth is done!

I promise you I'll hold and keep
you always close to me;
I'll show you I'm forever yours
to love you faithfully!

Now through this time without me there
on words you must depend;
But won't be long till physically
I'll show you love again!

"From Outside In"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Just step outside yourself today
   to take a closer look;
Are you the man you should've been,
  you're life an open book?

Have you became what others say,
   they'd one day like to be;
Or think to self, this can't be right,
   I'm so ashamed of me?

It's not about, the years gone by,
   the past has all been paid;
It's more of what you're doing now
   and how you live today!

Live life to love each one around,
   make time for those who care;
Just pass on things you've came to know,
   remember life's not fair!

Take steps to help someone who's down,
   to show a bit of love;
Just find a way to share the truth,
   forgiveness from above!

Now focus on the here and now,
   make memories for to last;
Then look at self from outside in,
   to change the things of past!

"What Your Love Is"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
The sun is shining bright today,
the sky of purest blue;
Reminds me of the love we share,
this love twixt me and you!

No matter how I feel inside,
you always bring a smile;
Your words take me so far away,
your love, an extra mile!

I built such walls around my heart,
you broke the binds, you see;
Each breath I take now in my life,
your love, the air I breathe!

You fill my heart with joy each day,
you're ALL I'll ever need;
You stand beside me everyday,
your love, an endless breed!

You keep me soaring high at times,
just floating in the wind;
You're so much more than everything
my love, my truest friend!

"Time to Shine"
Kenny Whiting Dec 2016
That life you're living now today,
    leads nowhere but down hill;
It takes your soul both night and day,
   and eats away your will.

There's not a day has yet gone by,
   when living in the past;
Has helped you move ahead in life,
   or form a bond to last!

You must move out your comfort zone,
   just dare to do what's right;
Remember doing good today
   will help you sleep tonight!

Now take the time to look around,
   to see those in despair;
They may just need to feel they're loved,
   to know that someone cares!

It's time you make your presence known,
   to stand above the rest;
To be what others wish they were,
   in life to be your best!

"Friend for You"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I know you've seen the toughest times
in just the past few years;
I've seen you buckle from the pain
and wiped away your tears!

I wish I could just wave a wand
to make your sorrows gone.
There's several things I'd like to say,
for now we'll start with one-

I've never been quite superman,
or strong as Hercules;
I can't run fast or jump too high
or even swing from trees!

There's one thing though I can do well,
it's be here for my friend;
To hold you up, to see you through
from now till the very end!

I'll fight for you all wars of life,
I'll battle biggest flame;
To hold your hand and lead the way
through life's incredible pain!

I'll never leave your side again,
I'll stick to you like glue;
And when you feel a bit alone,
Just think, I'm here for you!

You'll never find a friend like me,
"from sea to shining sea"
I'll be right here from this day on,
The best friend I can be!

"Last Dance"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
There's times I feel I cannot live
a life without you here;
It's times I feel I'm by myself,
Alone- my biggest fear!

Without you here beside me now
I feel I can't go on;
I now can see how this days come
I've lived my life all wrong!

I  never realized what I had,
I wish I'd given more;
It hit me quick that moment when
you walked right out that door.

You give me chance, I'll make you proud,
I'll two step through my part;
You hold on tight, I'll rush right in
I'll waltz back in your heart!

It won't take long to prove to you,
I learned from my mistakes
I'll focus on my one true love,
all others I'll forsake!

So as I come with open arms,
don't leave me standing here;
Just let me wrap you up for life
to show I love you dear!

I write these words to ask you now
just give me one more chance
To hold you close, to waltz with you
to have just one last dance!

"Your Daddy's Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
There's not a word that's written down
by any man on Earth;
To explain to you the width and depth
my love and what it's worth!

I never was the genius type
though never been so dumb;
It's just the fact that Webster can't
define my love for one!

It's more than much, far more than good
so far above the rest;
It's not at all a word just spoke
It's better than the best!

Although for now I have to show
through words my love for you,
It makes it hard to get across
this feeling that's so true!

It's from the heart, yet felt through touch
wrapped in these arms of mine,
You'll feel your Daddy's love the best
until the end of time!

Just hold on tight, it won't be long,
I'll hug you once again
For I can't wait just for that time,
stay strong from now till then!

You'll never find true love like mine
except from God above;
There's not a love on Earth that's quite
just like your Daddy's love!

"What Will it Be?"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Now in this school called life we live,
recovery the test;
What will it be from here on out,
sobriety or death?

It may sound harsh to say like that,
but down this road we chose;
There's nothing good, just broken hearts
so many more lost souls!

It's time we see the pain we've caused
our loved one's shattered hearts;
You may not feel it's quite this bad
but drugs HAVE left their mark!

Each moment lost with all your loves,
one purpose, to get high;
You may not have but one more chance
before your last goodbye!

Lost family, friends and others 'round,
this sorrow, pain and strife;
Each one effects of choices made
in game that some call life!

It's time we made our mind up now,
as only WE can do;
To give up all these hurtful things,
in life to just be YOU!

Let's make a pact to live again,
let love and life abound;
To put behind our past mistakes
to live for here and now!

"Heavenly Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I've never found a love like yours,
here's what your love is worth;
You show a love so far past good,
small hint of Heaven on Earth!

I'm filled so full emotions now,
just heard your voice again;
Each time I hear that precious sound
I feel my heart give in!

You love me unconditionally
through all mistakes I've made;
You pray My Lord would help me when
it seems I've lost my way!

You stood by me, though hard it's been,
a pillar in life's sand;
Each time I stumbled down again,
you lent a helping hand!

With love like yours I'll never know
the feelings of alone;
Whenever I was feeling down
such comfort you have shown!

So as I write these words right now
still fumbling for the words;
To show you everything you are
this one thing just occurred!

You're more than good, far more than great,
you're sent from God above;
To show me each and every day
a touch of Heavenly Love!

"Lost Time"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
In days and times of younger years
I felt I'd never fall;
I couldn't lose no matter what
If I'd just give my all!

I lived my life so focused on
both riches and my fame;
I tried so hard to do my best
just hiding all the pain!

I dreamed not huge but massive dreams,
in life I had a plan;
To take this world by storm myself,
to be a wealthy man!

It's my own fault, the way I lived,
it comes as no surprise;
I worked so hard both night and day,
my loved ones paid the price!

I never spent, not near enough,
each moment oh so dear;
Those precious times, the little ones
that draw a family near!

Now've made a pact to focus on,
these finer things in life;
To be the dad I should've been
best husband to my wife!

To hug and hold, to love each day.
to make up for lost time;
To never let them go again,
to walk a different line!

"My Love and More"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
You've made it known you love me so,
with love that's more than true;
The sun that lights my everyday,
come cloudy skies or blue!

You've stood by me through all my life,
through sorrow, pain and strife;
When trials came you stood your ground
the Anchor in my life!

You've made me smile in saddest times,
through stormy skies for years;
Your breath such hope when hard times come,
my rainbow through the tears!

You've fought by me through all life's wars,
not once gave up the fight;
The strongest girl I'll ever know,
my star that shines so bright!

But most of all you broke these binds,
right from the very start;
You softened me with tender touch,
the Love that stole my heart!

"Heaven's Gift"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
In times I feel I'm all alone,
I know you're by my side;
With love a thousand legions strong,
your love I can't deny!

Although you may not be here now,
so many miles away;
We make it work the way we do,
grow closer day by day!

When nighttime comes, the hardest time,
I'm all alone it seems;
I close my eyes to drift away,
to hold you in my dreams!

I think about the life we share,
true strength to pass each test;
There's not another man on earth,
bit more than I am blessed!

I wake refreshed, get on my knees,
to thank my Lord above;
For sending me a special gift
all packaged in your love!

"My All"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Good morning to you, Beautiful,
how was your sleep last night?
You've started off my day so good
just being by my side!

As I lay right here and think about
the special times we've had;
I thank you for the love you've shared
in good times and in bad!

My heart has always skipped a beat
each time I see your face;
With just one word you spoke to me.
my heart had known it's place!

Although I may not show enough
or often times it seems;
I may not hold you high enough
as the woman of my dreams!

You make me happy every day
just with your special love;
You've shown me oft that I''m the man
you're always dreaming of!

You fill my life with so much joy
and show me every day;
That my God made you just for me
in each and every way!

I feel these words can't show you just
how much I love you, dear;
So let me hold you in my arms
and whisper in your ear-

You're my Queen of Hearts, My gorgeous Love
the twinkle in my stars;
You're me one and only ******* Earth
my ALL is what you are!

"It's Now that Time"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
We've made it good this far in life,
grown closer day by day;
Although we live our separate lives
both know we're here to stay!

There's not too many couples
could live their life like this;
We make it work the way we do-
the closest thing to Bliss!

I know your love is more than real,
you know my love is true;
There's but one step I've yet to take-
that's tie the knot with you!

You've told me many times gone past,
It's me you're waiting on;
I've squirmed and stalled to make you mine,
but know the time has come!

You've worn my ring for seven years
and never once caused doubt
You've shown your love and stood by me
and always been devout!

You've waited patiently for these four words
I asked you years ago;
But told you soon I'd ask again-
"When time was right we'd know".

My love for you runs deep and wide
"From sea to shining sea";
Please take my hand till death do part
to make my life complete!

"Just Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
There are days and moments now and then
without you with me here,
It feels that I may fold or break
from weight I cannot bear!

It's all because I miss your touch,
to feel you close to me;
'Cause when I hold you in these arms
it helps my heart break free!

There's never been a man on earth
to love a woman so,
I never dreamed I'd be the one-
till you I came to know!

You've shown me what true love's about,
you gave my heart a jolt;
Since everyday you've stood by me-
a statue strong and bold!

I may not be there physically,
yet never far away;
You're always in my heart and mind,
I dream of you all day!

It's only but a moment now,
though now's not soon enough;
'Til once again you'll feel my touch
and feel it's YOU I love!

I promise you from this day on
I'll hold you ever near!
I promise you I'll fight for you,
my love for you I'll swear!

— The End —
