Kobe Bryant is with us no more.
The good do die young sometimes, that's for sure.
He was a basketball hero in LA.
He always played the game hard, that was his way.
An NBA legend he will forever be.
Always an inspiration to people like you and me.

The night was made for romance.
In the night our two hearts dance.
Under the stars our lips touch.
In the garden your embrace means so much.

The night was made for love.
Our hearts cooing like a white dove.
Your eyes sparkling like diamonds so white.
I love you darling with all my might.

The night was made for caring and trust.
And darling, God made this night for us.

When he kissed her lips.
He tasted life.
He knew that he wanted her for his wife.
When he touched her.
He felt like he was in heaven.
And that she was the reason for his living.

The sun rises.
The wind blows.
Like a tree.
True love grows and grows.

Like a flower.
True love smells fresh.
Like a river.
True love stands time's test.

Two elderly people holding hands.
Walking barefoot on the beach sand.
The young at heart lady is the man's wife.
Love can still be like the sunrise in the twilight of a person's life.

Some people like their whiskey.
Some people like their gin.
But a pretty girl and Mountain Dew.
Really gets under my skin.

Because I live in a Mountain Dew world.
My body runs on Mountain Dew pearls.
My mind floats in a Mountain Dew haze.
I look at the world.
Through a Mountain Dew gaze.

A pretty girl and Mountain Dew.
Really gets under my skin.
A pretty girl and Mountain Dew.
Really gets under my skin.

Chili Ben loved to grin
After he had broken wind around his friends.
A *** of chili was his doom.
Like a bomb, his chili wind could clear a room.
Chili Ben could have used more manners.
But for now, place him on the break wind champion banners.

She had all that she could take.
Her boyfriend was so fake.
It was time to tell him goodbye.
And stop listening to all his lies.
So away his little bird flew.
Looking for someone who would be loving and true.

She looks out the window.
Waiting for her husband who is her one true love.
The snow is falling lightly.
And the stars are shining above.

He walks through the door.
He has just returned from fighting in a foreign war.
But he always carried her love in his heart.
Whether near or far.

Little Daphne started to skip.
While eating a bag of Lay's Potato Chips.
The autumn wind began to blow.
And the leaves put on a dance show.
A leaf fell softly in little Daphne's hair.
Just another part of nature's colorful flair.

Out in the garden for all to see.
Is the bloom of the Spring Lily.
Catching the rays of the sun.
Anticipating summer and all its fun.

Beautiful is this lily with a radiant glow.
As water from the birthbath flows.
Sweet scent blowing in the wind.
One of the sweetest flowers that nature sends.

Evelyn was all that and a bag of chips.
She worked really hard for her tips.
She would hustle until weak in the knees.
To make sure that all her customers were pleased.
Evelyn was a waitress with a heart of gold.
When God made Evelyn, God broke the mold.

Kip and his girlfriend were having an argument.
Over bills and paying the rent.
His dog said, it will all work out in time.
Her cat said, I hope that everything will be fine.
But you must admit that he is blowing all his money.
And that just ain't funny.
His dog just grinned and said, boys will be boys.

Like an apple.
Red and delicious.
The answer to my prayers and wishes.

Full of smiles when happy.
A bit of pout when sad.
Full of sweet kisses.
That makes my heart glad.

Full of kind words.
When sometimes I feel gloom.
Full of sweet songs.
That could fill a room.

Your kiss is sweet as a candy cane.
Soft as a summer rain.
Soothing as a soft pillow.
Free as a weeping willow.

Sweet as honey.
More precious than money.
Wet as a winter snow.
The kind that is dreamed of.
This I know.

They were laying in the grass so in love.
Looking at all the stars above.
He felt like they were the only people in the world.
Just him and his special girl.
She was completely blowing his mind.
She was so lovely and one of a kind.

Terrell was anxiously awaiting for the mail.
He was feeling so swell.
He got a big surprise.
One that burned his eyes.
The message on the Christmas card read.
Merry Christmas, I'm leaving you.
His girlfriend's message caused him to have to take pain meds.

She thought that without him.
She would cease to exist.
She lived for his touch.
And the taste of his kiss.
And to be forever in his arms.
This was her only wish.

I gaze into the night sky.
The moon smiles.
The stars wink.
Deeper into my sweetheart's arms I sink.

I inhale the fresh spring air.
And tenderly stroke my sweetheart's hair.
A shooting star streaks across the sky.
Our love takes wings and fly.

Her charms I could never resist.
Two hearts floating in ecstasy on a night like this.

The morning mist touched my face.
Iced sweet tea satisfied my taste.
Softly you walked behind me on the porch swing.
And placed a sweet kiss upon my face.

These are the moments that I treasure.
There's nothing else on this earth that can measure.
You are the rare diamond of my world.
My creme of soda and ice cream swirl.

Her song sings of love.
Her song sings of the stars above.
Her song sings of you.
Her song sings of me.
Her song sings that love is always worthwhile.
For every man, woman, and child.

When Buddy gave her a sloppy wet kiss.
She felt so wrapped up in love.
Buddy was her pet toy poddle.
He was more delightful than a bowl of noodles.
Buddy was her best friend.
Only death could make their friendship end.

Xavier was a hardworking garbage man.
He was a superman at lifting those heavy garbage cans.
He was well known on his route far and wide.
Because in his job, he always took pride.
He learned early in life and this I will tell.
That whatever job you do, do it well.

She tried to be happy but it was in vain.
So she went outside and kissed the rain.
She let the raindrops fall on her tongue.
Then her heart began singing a happy song.
Summer wind and rain, nothing could go wrong.
The summer rain felt like a happy home.

Little Jenna was playing outside in a California city.
When out of the wooded area came a pretty kitty.
She went to pet the kitty with the arched back.
Her dad sprinted to get rid of the bobcat.
Like he was running Olympic track.

Like the birds sing a sweet song.
Like the rivers strum a lovely tune.
Like the stars serenade the moon.
Like flowers look so pretty in June.

Like water makes violets grow.
Like winter brings flaky snow.
This is true and no jest.
Love is the blueprint for happiness.

Bailey was one tough girl.
She didn't care for frills or curls.
She preferred driving a bulldozer.
Better than receiving a dozen roses.
She would rather wrestle with the boys.
Than go shopping at mall stores.

The wind is blowing softly.
The golden sky is calling.
Lovers come lay underneath me.
And wonders the eyes will see.
Nature treasures are everywhere.
Happiness fills the air.

Jimbo the cat loved to go on the attack.
When people came over to visit his owners.
He flew like a missle at their backs.
Jimbo thought that he was just being playful.
But for people that didn't know him.
He needed to be a little bit more careful.

Our romance is like the sun gleaming.
The moon beaming.
Our romance is like the stars shining so bright.
All through the heavenly night.

Our romance is like violins playing.
Sunny days staying.
Our romance is like birds singing.
Bells ringing.

Our romance is like rivers flowing.
Flowers growing.
Our romance is like a cool wind.
Love that never ends.

Howie was a Halloween cheat.
He was much too old of a kid to go trick-or-treat.
But he did it anyway.
Some people gave him treats.
And some people just laughed and sent him away.

I wanted to write a poem.
I wanted to write it about something cuddly and warm.
But I could not write a poem.
I just sat and had a brainstorm.
A thought to me has just come.
I think that I just wrote a poem.

Johnny was coming of age.
He had finally reached that stage.
He had grown out of toys and Christmas trees.
All that he wanted for Chrismas was a kiss from Sally.
He surprised her under the mistltoe.
And told her that he loved her so.

The wind blows free across the sea.
A little girl laughs gaily on her father's knee.
A bird sings happily in a tree.
Love blows free for my love and me.

Deer run free in the fields.
Eagles fly free at will.
Leaves dance freely in the wind.
I will love you freely until life's end.

She worked at Kentucky Fried Chicken.
And she was called Shake and Bake.
She was mean as a snake.
She would punch her boyfriend in the eye.
And wouldn't even tell him why.
She loved seeing him cry.
The embarrassment made him want to die.

Wearing a white dress and gold necklace chain.
Ella looked so sweet walking barefoot in the rain.
She just wanted to feel the rain between her toes.
And the raindrops falling lightly on her cornrows.
Just a pretty little inner city girl.
Loving her rainy day world.

Brooke slips quietly into the night.
Looking for a little peace.
In pink shawl, she looks so small.
While the moon and night creatures call.

Brooke bends her ear to the wind.
And she lets all of the night sounds flow in.
In this moment, she is one with the night.
And her soul floats lightly like a kite.

An old man sits alone in a chair in the garden.
And dreams of yesteryear.
And thinks of friends that have passed.
And the wife that he lost so dear.
Now he feels so all alone.
He prays to God to keep him strong.

Wood popping in the fireplace.
Eating homegrown food at dinner and saying grace.
Baking bread on the old wood stove.
Picking peaches from the grove.
Taking baths in the old washtub.
Heading to the creek for a scub.
Working hard from dawn to dusk.
Going to church on Sunday was a must.

He was fishing.
While his dog sat beside him.
He said, I have got a bite.
The dog said, good now pass me another Bud Light.
His dog drank his beer and burped.
While the birds continued to chirp.

Our eyes met.
Our souls touched.
First love is a feeling that you never forget.

First love brought to my heart.
A flood of emotions.
Beautiful and wide.
Exciting like a ballon ride.

Years go by and days pass.
But the memory of a first love will always last.
This is something that must be realized from the start.
A first love always remains in a secret place in the heart.

She tried to pull away.
She wanted to find a new day.
She prayed to the Lord above.
To let her fly free as a dove.
But she was caught up in the riptide of love.

Their love was pulling her under.
In her mind she pondered.
Why their love kept going asunder.
But she was caught up in the riptide of love.

She prayed that one day she would be free.
And fly freely over the sea.
So that she could be what she was meant to be.
And not be caught up in the riptide of love.

She lay on the burning sand.
Bikini body and beautiful tan.
Sunscreen lotion spread on her body by her boyfriend's hand.
Keeping cool with a little paper fan.
Enjoying the beautiful sunlight.
Wearing rose-colored glasses.
What a beautiful sight.

A lion and tiger got into a fight.
The lion just wanted to claw and bite.
The tiger boxed like he was Muhammad Ali.
And he knocked the lion up a tree.

She thanked the Lord for another song to sing.
For another book to read.
For another flower from seed.
For the warm sunlight.
For another peaceful night.
For another person to love.
For all the stars above.

Willow sat quietly in the night.
The wind whispered her name.
And told her that there was no shame.
Because she was not to blame.
For leaving him because of his cheating ways.
She just had to move forward and look for better days.

Two beavers were building a dam.
One got into a really bad jam.
His work was never on time.
It was always late.
Because he had bad teeth.
Because he didn't brush with Colgate.

Delmont was just like a bear.
There wasn't a place that he didn't have hair.
All over his body he was a super hair grower.
To remove all of the hair it would take a lawnmower.
A lot of his dates were turned off.
Shedding hair sometimes made them cough.

She said, I'm leaving you.
He said okay.
She said, I'm taking all the money and the house.
He said okay.
She said, I'm taking Champ the dog.
He said, that's not okay.

It would be nice to live in a land.
Where everyone stayed well.
And donuts never went stale.
A land where everyone thought smart.
And played by the heart.
Where everyone cared for their fellow man and woman.
And strived for peace and a cool drink from a lemonade stand.

He loved his new girlfriend's collard greens and yams.
His other girlfriend had only fed him spam.
His other girlfriend had always put his spam in a bowl.
With only one little dinner roll.
His other girlfriend had always treated him like a dog.
His new girlfriend brought him sunshine instead of a fog.
