... I Love It I love the Christmas holiday. I love to jingle all the way. I love to trim the Christmas tree. I love to give to you from me. I love to meet with everyone. To laugh and eat and just have fun. I love to run around and shop. Until, I feel that I could drop. I love the brightly, colored lights. That glow throughout December nights. I love the Santa Claus and elves. Displayed in malls, and on store shelves. I love the Holy Manger scene. In settings that are so serene. I love the miniature displays. Of little towns from olden days. I love to hear the Christmas bells. And savor, all the Christmas smells. I love the nights, when all aglow. By, freshly fallen, moonlit snow. I really love this holiday, Is what this poem, was meant to say. But, if that's not ...

... Love Is Love It's very strange, when suddenly, your heart will realize, It has been taken by someone with words before your eyes. It is so strange to fall in love while starring at a screen, With someone who is miles away that you have never seen. You read about it in the news and see it on TV, About an online love affair as real as it could be. A couple fell in love online and one day finally meet. The love was real for both of them and now they are complete. You think this couldn't happen, because it is all a game. The people that you read about already were insane. To meet a perfect stranger may be asking way too much. The people who set up these dates have gone completely nuts. You don't know who you're talking to, and can they be sincere? And if you've never seen someone, how can they really care? So ...

... Maternal Love Mother, What a nice word, It's not just a word. I love your smile You're so fragile. I love your touch I love you so much. Mother, You're everything to me I knew you before I saw you. Mother, I adore you. You are full of emotion You are full of devotion Your heart is enormous Your love is gorgeous. Mother, No one is compared to you You're my love and only you Mother, whatever you do, I'll always love you. Mother, that's for real, Your love is so dear, With you, I never fear Or even shed a tear Mother, keep always near. I love everything about you I love your smell, It's like a ringing bell Just to wake me up And lets me stop From doing any wrong You make me strong. Mother, whenever you hold me tight I remember when you stood all night Beside me when I was young ...

... Her Thoughts I know you do not notice me, You're working way too hard. I watch you from the living room, While you landscape our yard. I think about the many times, You've taken on a task. When all I did was mention it, I did not even ask. Your love for me excites me, All the ways you've made it shown. You are the kindest loving man, My heart has ever known. I love you as you share with me, Your generosity. But what always thrills my heart, Is how you cherish me. I see the perspiration, As you stop to wipe your brow. The thought of your aroma, Brings excitement even now. I see your muscles ripple, As they catch the light just right. And think of how those muscles, Hold me gently in the night. I see your hands so strong and firm, As you use them so free. And ...

... My Daughter You Will See When you were just a baby, and I looked into your eyes, I loved you more, my little one, than you could realize. To hold my precious little girl, and see your little face, I had been blessed beyond compare, with God's own loving grace. He gave you to me, and I love you more than you could know, A love that is so special, and all mothers know it's so. A mother's love is endless, and will last an eternity, But children do not understand, how much love that can be. A special love that mother's have, and only they can show, And only when you are a mother, can you truly know. To love so much a little one, that is a part of you, A part of you to love and cherish, mothers know it's true. You watch them grow, and hope they have prospered ...

... . Her legs are curled upon the sofa and she looks so sweet, She still maintains her high school figure and is so petite. Twenty years they've been together and she looks the same, As beautiful as ever and she keeps it very plain. She has a natural beauty and has such a lovely skin, Her eyes are deep and lovely and her nose so sleek and thin. He leans against the hallway door and just observes the sight, Everything about his love is beautiful and right. Her hair is long and flowing with a little bit of curl, She keeps it long and has since she was just a little girl. She flips the pages of the book and turns her head so slight, She still has on the nightie that she wore to bed last night. She pulls the bottom of the gown to cover both her feet, And as he watches her, his eyes drink in the visual treat. To him she ...

... The Shape Of Love He woke before the sun came up... it was a special day, He wanted to show her he loved her... in a special way. He thought she was so beautiful... as she was lying there, And for a moment all he did was... look at her and stare. Her skin was soft and lovely and... her hair was full and fine, He smiled when thinking of the fact... this lady is all mine. How could a man deserve such love... as she did freely give, Her love had made him realize... just what it meant to live. He planned this day well in advance... to show his love for her, And as he lay and watched her face... she made a little stir. To him she was so precious... she meant all ...

... Who's Late? He hands her flowers and a box of candy with a bow, He loves her more than anybody else could ever know. To him she is so beautiful and makes his heart just melt, The love he has for her is something he has never felt. She takes the flowers and the candy heart that's trimmed in lace, And as she looks into his eyes a smile is on her face. He reaches out to touch her and she says he is so sweet, To go through all this trouble for the flowers and the treat. The love we have is wonderful she whispers through her tears, How could we be so much in love and not have any fears. She smiles as she looks at his face and sees him smiling back, Since they met and fell in love there's nothing that they lack. Tonight they have a dinner date with dancing at a hall, For Valentine's they always throw a splendid ...

... they're gone. Don't stay on the bumps too long. Move on! When you feel down because you didn't get what you want, just sit tight and be happy, because God is thinking of something better to give you. When something happens to you, good or bad, consider what it means-don't be sad. There's a purpose to life's events, to teach you how to laugh more, or not to cry too hard. You can't make someone love you, all you can do is be someone who can be loved; the rest is up to the other person to realize your worth. What the heart gives away is never gone. It is kept in the hearts of others. Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risks. Secure a special place in your heart. A certain place only you can enter. There will come a time to find yourself, and only your heart will show you the way ...

I Love You Like I love you like no one else, Like no one ever could~Like liars love to cross their hearts, Like dreamers" knock on wood" I love you like no one else, Like no one ever will~Like whippoorwills love whooping cranes, Like water flows downhill. Like lovers love to kiss and hug, Like pigeons love to coo~The Lord's best angels disagree Like, how much I love you.

... Love's Essence I sit and think about her love as precious as can be, I wonder why this perfect girl is so in love with me? I think about the things she says and how she makes me feel, I have to stop and pinch myself and realize it's real. I've never felt a love like this, each time I think of her, Her gentle, loving, soothing voice is like a kitten ’ s purr. Her gentle touch, that drives me wild and sets my heart on fire, Creates in me a passion that extends beyond desire. I think of softness in her hair, her lips so sweet and warm, I think of sunlight radiating on her perfect form. So beautiful and elegant, this perfect lovely being, And I know that she loves me, but I wonder what she's seeing? I'm just a plain and average guy or maybe just below, It overwhelms me, that this perfect lady ...

... Eternal Love He doesn't bring me roses but He is called the Rose of Sharon. He doesn't send flowers to my office but He grows beautiful flowers in my garden. He doesn't kiss me but I sense His kiss when I feel sunshine or softly falling rain. He doesn't give me sparkling diamonds to wear but the stars He set in the sky shine even more brilliantly. He doesn't whisper in my ear but His still small voice is ever with me. He isn't a valentine who has pledged lifelong love but He is Eternal Love. He demonstrated it Not by gifts or well-intentioned promises but by offering Himself as the fulfillment of promise. Not by standing with me at the wedding altar but by placing Himself on the altar. That I may know life That I may know Him and love Him forever. Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love ...

... Just So You Will Know A few years ago I had a friend, He always used to say," Tell people how and what you feel, there might not be another day" I did not listen I really thought, I'll tell him I love him tomorrow. Tomorrow did not come for us, Only pain and sorrow. I will not make that same mistake, And here's what I will do. I'll send this poem to all my friends, And tell you I love you. Best friend, close friend, friend at all, You mean the world to me. I thank you for the people you are, And every memory. I love the laughter and the tears, Everything we share. Thank you for being in my life, The times that you were there. I am sorry for any hurt I caused, If I could I'd take it back. I'd unlock the doors into the past But it's that ...

... Love Is When Love is when someone is there To share a hurt and hug a care. Love is when he stands so tall And smiles and eats a burned meatball! Love is when your heart belongs In arms familiar, safe and strong. Love between a man and wife Is much like God, Who gave His life. He meets our needs; He shares and cares; He gives His love in answered prayer. So far beyond all earthly loves, This God awaits your heart's deep love. For love is when He grace imparts To fill your life, and win your heart!-Peggie C. Bohanon-[ by Peggie C. Bohanon.

... Do you love me?" Lord ", I cried, and said," Do you love me ?"" You seem not to care when these things happen, When my child gets run down by a drunk driver. When my husband loses his mind with grief, And then spends the last ten years of his life Grieving himself to death !"" Lord, do You care that I have no car, no good and decent place to lay my head? You promised to be my Husband, Provider, Friend. You said You'd never leave me til the end. I have waited and obeyed as best I can. What else can I do ?" God answered me, and said:" Child, do you love Me? You seem only to love Me if everything is going as you say. Your faith wavers day to day, and minute to minute; Can you not see My Hand at work in your life anyway? ...

... Our Love Is Like A Rose Garden Still snuggled in your bed, As from my room I creep. Knowing not I venture forth, You think I'm sound asleep. Early in the morning light, Spring's day begins anew. As I walk into the rose garden, It makes me think of you. To me each rose is a delight, A love gift just from you. Here's a yellow rose so bright, Another a somber hue. You planted each to please me, And you tend them all with care. Upon your face its joy I see, Each bloom you love to share. The roses remind me of my marriage, I've lived in a garden fine. And it's been all of fifty years, Oh, my life has been divine. God blessed us with a family, Our children bring us love. Grandchildren are our bonus, Each a gift from Him above. We've shared so many happy years, And ...

... Because I Love You Because I love You I'll apologize Though anger in me burn, I'll tell someone I'm sorry Though it is not my turn; I'll speak with love and kindness, Though feelings in me churn. I'll set my pride aside Because I love You. Because I love You I'll forgive someone When they have done me wrong, I'll not give in to grudges. I'll keep my spirit strong; And though they turn their back on me, I'll gladly suffer long. I'll set my rights aside Because I love You. Because I love You, Keep my focus staid To always choose Your pace, To put no one above You. To keep You in first place; To set Your*hands*aside, Lord God, And seek Your Holy*Face*.

... watching him and he cleans up his face, And quietly he puts his toiletries back in their place. As he is cleaning up his things the toothbrush and the paste, He stands before the mirror and is stripped down to his waist. She lets her eyes just soak him in as she swells up with pride, The very sight of him like this just strokes her fire inside. She cannot put her finger on it or explain the fact, Only that the love she feels brings on this strange attack. He makes her burn from deep inside, it feels like she will burst, Just the thought of touching him creates an inner thirst. Never has she loved a man with such intense desires, Nothing in this world could ever quench these inner fires. He's everything she dreamed about when she would contemplate, What she needed in a man to make a perfect mate. Now he stands before her and her dreams have all come true ...

... . But she had done her duty as so many others do, Stopped to give a token gift before the day was through. Rushing through her busy day and running out of hours, Never taking time as said" to stop and smell the flowers" Now she smells the flowers that she placed upon the ground, But now she smells them all alone and does not hear a sound. She whispers softly to her Mother hoping that she hears, And says I love you mommy as she wipes away more tears. I love you for the years you gave to love and nurture me, I love you for the sacrifice you gave unselfishly. I love you and I realize how much you loved me too, I only wish this Mother's Day I could have spent with you. If only I had one more chance but now it is too late, On every Mother's Day I know I wouldn't hesitate, To show you if for just one ...

... do. Sometimes we lose sight of the beauty we have. We don't see any good-only the bad. We start out our lives with the world in our hands, but, as we grow older, forget what's been planned. We feel lost and confused-unloved and alone and sometimes our hearts feel hardened-like stone. We almost get blinded by our saddened thoughts-'till we no longer see what we've really got. We get numb to the love of our family and friends-we can't see the hope, the future-just the end. These words said to you in the hope you'll achieve-fall upon ears that no longer believe-that YOU are so special-a star in the night-who shines in His glory, your own special light. You feel so unworthy, but you don't know why and you search for the answers which just makes you cry. Sometimes you need someone to help sort ...

... Our Love Has Lasted The joy I have, with this friend of mine, Being in his presence makes me feel fine, He makes me feel warm, and all aglow, Makes me want to tell, everybody I know. Our love has lasted a very long time, I whisper His name, I know He is mine, The look in His eyes, just melts my heart, I fell deeply in love, right from the start. The one I was with, before I met Him, He was so bad, ruthless and grim, He didn't love me, not even one day, He wanted my soul, to stay astray. I couldn't trust him, he was so bad, Being in his presence, made me so sad, Had I not changed, and left when I did, I would be lost, my soul he had bid, I guess by now, you know what I mean, With ...

... A Gift Of Love" For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have eternal life" John 3: 16. The heart of the Father looked down on fallen man, He saw the result of sin in his beautiful creation, So tenderly with love He knew salvation's plan, He would send His only Son to save every tribe and Nation. Within the fullness of time Jesus came as God's only Son, Conceived by the Holy Spirit from above, He alone could take away sin and bring men back to God again; He would be our Savior, the perfect Lamb of God sent in love. He walked among men, saved, delivered, and healed; There was no other greater than He, His grace He freely gave and salvation revealed, His love was the greatest as He died on Calvary's tree. The power of the cross still saves ...

... Waiting For The Call Of Love Sometimes I feel very lonely, When I look at the world around me, A guy passes by with a girl by his side, And there is no one beside me. I feel all alone, why can't I have a girl, Are some of the thoughts that flow through my mind, I look here and there for a girl everywhere, Hoping for love so divine. My eye soon falls upon a beautiful one, As beautiful as the bright morning sun, My heart starts to beat, my blood runs cold, This is the power of falling in love with a girl. I begin to think of her everyday, Praying to God that she'll come my way, I soon end up seeing reality, This girl that I like has a man already. My heart sinks, I feel very down, I feel like I'm in a sea and I'm about to drown, Just when I'm about ...

I love you For the part of me That you bring out; I love you For putting your hand Into my heaped-up heart And passing over All the foolish, weak things That you can't help Dimly seeing there, And for drawing out Into the light All the beautiful belongings That no one else had looked Quite far enough to find. I love you because you Are helping me to make Of the lumber in my life Not a tavern But a temple; Out of the works Of my every day Not a reproach But a song. I love you Because you have done More than any creed Could have done To make me good, And more than any fate Could have done To make me happy ...

... impetuous worm, He'd ventured forth alone; To feast his eyes on sights unseen, On places yet unknown. When night-time came he chose his bed: A lofty evergreen. And it was there he came upon A most enchanting scene. For there, the sweetest caterpillar Sat upon a limb~He knew first time he saw her That this worm was made for him! He inched his way up next to her, And in a little while, He'd won her love and stole her heart With smooth and polished style. He told her how she needed him, And what he said made sense. An*older*worm, he told her how He'd much experience. He knew the finest eating-spots And where they could be found, And pledged to show them to her If she'd follow him around. So ev'ry morn at half-past nine, He took his sweetheart out to dine; He'd climb the tall majestic fir And bring down tender greens ...

... Thank You Once More As I stuff the turkey and prepare our annual meal, My family is excited and they know just how I feel. I love it when the holidays begin here in the fall, There's nothing I don't love about it, I just love it all. I love the feeling that I get when family is all here, I think I love this season more than any time of year. But every year is different as we move into this season, And every year we celebrate we have a different reason. Oh yes we always thank the Lord for blessings that abound, And yes we always thank Him that he keeps us safe and sound. But this we always do each day and not just once a year, It is the new things we enjoy as holidays draw near. Each year I always think of things that we did in the past, And sometimes wish that all those years had not gone by ...

... For Many Years For many years I prayed for you before I saw your face, And I found home within your arms, wrapped in your strong embrace. I asked the Lord to guide your steps directly to my life," Lord God, please choose the man for me if I'm to be a wife" And through the years He's held us close, His love has seen us through~I've learned how deeply you love me. as much as I love you! And through the valleys, hand-in-hand, our love has only grown~For God Himself has joined our hearts and carved our love in stone. Now you're my rock, I'm your balloon, we fit like hand-in-glove, For many years I prayed for you, and always will, my love. Happy Anniversary, Sweetheart!-Connie Hinnen Cook-( August 8, 2004)" Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it" (Song ...

... reason, help me to see. It's just so unbelievable that someone who had no sin, Would take mine upon Himself, knowing where I had been. Lord, you know that I don't deserve you, not at all. Many times I would turn my back on you, then I'd fall. How can it be that you keep taking me back over and over again? I don't know of anyone who would do this, not even one friend. Your love is the sweetest thing I'll ever experience. Through your love, is how I found my deliverance. I may not ever understand why you love me so, but I believe when I reach Heaven, I will know. Even though I don't deserve you, I do thank you. I thank you for taking me in, even though my sins you knew. I feel so broken hearted that you had to suffer so. I want to say that I deeply thank you ...

... Seaside Balcony The waves are pounding on the beach, The sun is coming up. I watch some people as I reach, To get my coffee cup. Sitting on the balcony, With panoramic view, I sip some coffee from my cup, As I gaze out at you. You love to sit out on the beach, At the break of day. You say it is your quiet time, To catch the sun's first ray. The sky is filled with brilliant light, The sun is breaking through. The scene is so breathtaking, It surrounds you with its hue. You look so peaceful and serene, Without a worldly care. The only movement is the breeze, That gently blows your hair. The sun is shining brightly now, I see your silhouette. The picture that's before me now, I never will forget. You are so very beautiful, My mind can't comprehend. The reason that you love me, Out ...

I want to love others as You do, Not the," love a little bit fashion" I want to feel their hurts, and pain. I'd like to be able to relate to them. When their troubles fall like rain, Let their eyes not be so dim. I want them to see Jesus in me, To show them of Your great love. I want them to be set free, By calling on You up above. I want to always be there for others, And to have a word of encouragement. I want to love my sisters & brothers, And not to have any arguments. Help me Lord to control my anger, When someone intensely hurts me. Help me to remember the danger, Through Your eyes, let me see. Let them not see in me bitterness, But ...

... the same. They didn't understand it; how they made each other feel. But then they realized, that what they had was very real. One day they started talking of the people they had met. And he began to tell her of a girl he can't forget. I met this girl in high school and I loved her from the start. She was the only girl I've known who's ever had my heart. We only dated for a year but our love was so deep. The kind of love and romance that in movies, makes you weep. But then my world came tumbling down and brought me to my knees. I got ill because I had a very rare disease. The doctors said," It was so rare and fatal just as well, And maybe it's contagious but it is too soon to tell. It seems it takes a lengthy time to pass to someone else. But if you want to play it ...

... A Forever Kind Lord, grant us the forever kind, That sees the faults, but doesn't mind; The kind that says," I love you still"~If not by feelings, then by will. The kind that's like Your own love, Lord, That seeks to serve, not earn reward; The kind that sees the best in each, That seeks to pray for, not to preach. And when old age should take its toll, Love, look beyond and love the soul; Be thou our anchor and our joy, A steadfast love time can't destroy. A love-made choice to always stay, To be there till our dying day; And when death comes to break earth's spell, Lord, may You tell us," You loved well !" -Connie-" Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

... A Sense Of Her Sweet Kiss As I gaze upon these violets, sweet memories come of you, the one who loved me most when as a child I grew. I found you always there, whether resting or at play. It seemed your first concern, was my welfare everyday. I never gave much thought, until much older though, of just how great a love, God had given you to show. It never seemed to matter if I was good or bad. You always had great love for me, even if I made you mad. The love of a mother for a child has to be from God above. The only real glimpse of Heaven is her unconditional love. For this is how our Father is in Heaven. Don't you see? It doesn't matter what a worm I am, He still shows great love for me. I find Him always there, whether resting or at play. I know His ...

It's all she ever wanted to feel happy and complete, And now it all will happen and her husband's been so sweet. He caters to her every mood and satisfies each whim, And she just smiles while thinking just how much she does love him. She thought about the first day when she told him of the child, He was so excited acting like he had gone wild. Laughing and just hugging her and blubbering like a fool, He was usually quiet but that day he lost his cool. She had even giggled at how it affected him, And wondered if that was the way that it affected men. He was so excited he was going to be a dad, And how he acted was the ...

I ’ ve waited for you to make me first place; For you to diligently seek my face. I love and care much about you, my dove, I came down to die from Heaven above. I lived out a perfect life here on Earth, To get your attention; to show your worth. Oh how I pray this one thing you will see: You ’ re worth more than my own life is to me. I gave my life freely, for you, I came ...

... Love Giving Someone taught you how to love, and probably didn't know it. And in return, with every day, It's now your turn to show it. When you love, you give a gift, And when you're gone it stays To be passed on by the ones you loved To make some one else's day. So remember someone who loved you, And show how much you care, By sharing all the love they gave With people everywhere. When you give away your love, That doesn't mean it's gone. Love will last forever, so open your heart. and pass it on. [Author Unknown-from 'Love Quotes '] Inspirational Poems SkyWriting.Net All Rights Reserved. ...

... L O V E ' S D E S I G N My Sweetheart, my True Love, today is the day we will stand before God, by His grace. I will promise to love you 'till death do us part, as we stand heart-to-heart, face-to-face. All my life I have waited for this special day-for the one whom my soul yearned to love; For my answer to prayer, the" One" given to me from the heart of the Father above. The years I have wasted in wandering afar are dim memories since I found You, As cold snow that melts swiftly and soon disappears when the Son's warming brilliance breaks through. Soon our lives will entwine as we promise to walk from this day forth, always-together. With the light of our love and the joy of our Lord, we'll walk the bright path to forever. And lest we should forget, there's a dear little girl who's ...

... Christmas Fire We sit and watch the flames leap high, And hear the crackling fire. So wrapped up in the love we share, We're living our desire. This Christmas night the love we have, Is precious and alive. There's no place I would rather be, Than here with you beside. The only light that shines around, Leaps from the fireplace. And I can see the little shadows, Dancing on your face. Just sitting here in front of it, With you the world seems right. The snow is falling softly outside, On this Christmas night. I wrap my arms around you, And we smile and reminisce, Of all the Christmas nights we've had, So beautiful like this. I think about the Christmas, I surprised you with a ring, And then we planned our wedding, And we married in the spring. I think of our first Christmas, That first year you were my wife. In ...

... Unselfishly She is so very beautiful her love is from within, How can I praise this special woman, where do I begin? She always knows just what to say and what I need to hear, And when I need that special someone she is always near. She always knows just what to do when I am feeling lost, Her kindness and compassion comes without a hidden cost. Unselfishly she shares her love and asks none in return, Love that's unconditional from her is what I've learned. She stands so tall and elegant a goddess in my eyes, The older that I get it seems the more I realize, How very wise and understanding she has always been, And now I understand that she has been my dearest friend. She always gives and never asks to receive in return, And many times I thought the way I acted just might ruin, The bond we have created or the closeness that has grown, But she ...

... Be still, My child; My whispers hear. Lean hard, My child; come very near. This well so deep with suffering filled Must empty first, till all is still. I'll take the hurt; I'll take the strife; In Hands so strong I'll hold your life. I'll fill the well with heaven's gain, When you, My child, give Me the pain. I'll take it, mold it, make it Mine; Transform it then to love divine. Turn sorrow into fullest joy Far greater than earth's brightest toy. For toys of earth cannot compare With Christ your Lord, so real, so fair. He, Christ alone, demands your all Give Me that pain, He softly calls. I shrink, then reach with outstretched hand; Dredged of self, alone to stand. Then from the depths of Love so true The well is filled again, anew. This time it's not with pain and me, ...

... No One No one has to tell me Just how wonderful You are, You bring beauty out of ashes, You're the Bright and Morning Star. You bring peace when I am troubled, And You give my life its zest, There are those I'd give my life for, But I'll always love You best. No one could convince me That You're not my all-in-all, You're my heart, my joy, my refuge, You're my comfort when I fall. You bring love beyond all measure And You prove Your heart is true, There are those I hold most dear, Yet not as much as I love You. No one could replace You, You're my dearest, closest friend, And our love will only strengthen For our love will never end. You were with me at my birth And You'll be with me at my death, You've become my dreams and thoughts now, You've become my very breath. No one else can ...

... The Shulamite Woman (Song of Solomon) She toiled in the sun in her brother's vineyards, Exposed to the filth and grime of the earth; There was no expectation of grandeur, Nor a share of this world s wealth. But she caught the eye of His Majesty, Who became the love of her life; He courted and wooed her sweetly, And took her to be his wife. Her beauty, an enclosed garden, Was totally enjoyed by her lover, Closed to the world at large, And tasted deeply by no other. She enticed him with sweet perfume, Causing his desire for her to grow; He appreciated her as a lily among thorn, Seeking her depths to know. The king was taken with her love, She was perfect in his eyes, Milk and honey flowed from her tongue; He preferred her love to the finest wines. She recognized the voice of her lover As he came at break of ...

... God's Grace I did not know His love before, The way I know it now. I could not see my need for Him, My pride would not allow. I had it all, without a care, The" self-sufficient" lie. My path was smooth, my sea was still, Not a cloud was in my sky. I thought I knew His love for me, I thought I'd seen His grace, I thought I did not need to grow, I thought I'd found my place. But then the way grew rough and dark, The storm clouds quickly rolled; The waves began to rock my ship, I found I had no hold. The ship that I had built myself Was made of foolish pride. It fell apart and left me bare, With nowhere else to hide. I had no strength or faith to face The trials that lay ahead, And so I simply spoke His name, And bowed my ...

It's from the kids ," he softly said," now this is a surprise" And as he read the little card the tears filled up his eyes. Dad you know we always call you on this special day, But it's so hard for all of us to find the words to say, To tell you Dad how much we love you just for being you, So this year we all got the idea to try something new. Flowers are the ultimate expression to show love, Flowers are the special gift when you are thinking of, Someone who is precious and means all the world to you, Nothing else says" I love you" the way that flowers do. So place them somewhere you can see and smell the sweet bouquet, Because the flowers represent what we all want to say. We ...

... Roses for Rose Red roses were her favorites; her name was also Rose, And every year her husband sent them tied with pretty bows. The year he died the roses were delivered to her door, The card said" Be My Valentine" like all the years before. Each year he sent her roses and the note would always say," I love you even more this year than last year on this day, My love for you will always grow with every passing year ," She knew this was the last time that the roses would appear. She thought he ordered roses in advance before this day, Her loving husband did not know that he would pass away. He always liked to do things early way before the time, Then if he got too busy everything would work out fine. She trimmed the stems and placed them in a very special vase, Then sat the vase beside the portrait of his smiling face. She ...

... watch the way they loved filled grown men's eyes with tears, How she looked at Jonathan could make a sailor blush, fifty years of wedded bliss, and she still had a crush! John's nephew was curious, and questioned him one day," What's the secret of your marriage, is it what you do or say? Tell me, what's the age-old mystery, just what do women need, what's the best thing I can give my wife to help our love succeed ?" Jonathan replied that love starts out much like a flame, then careless things can dampen it, like hardened hearts and blame," The way to keep the fire alive is stoking up the coals, let God reveal your woman's heart and help ignite your souls." Tell her there's no joy on earth that ever could compare to simply holding hands with her as you seek God in prayer, Tell her the stars that fill her eyes are all the light you ...

... Love Works. A guardian angel Flew down from above, To teach me a lesson About the powers of love. She whispers to me, Take a hold of my hand, There are so many things I wish you to understand. About the powers of love, And all it can do, To someone who needs To share it with you. A pat on the back, A kind smile on your face, Can make someone's life, A much brighter place. It doesn't take much, To show someone you care, To give them the love, God gave you to share. So please keep in mind, All the powers you possess, To grace someone's life, When they're in distress. You've been put on this earth To bestow the powers of love, And with those final words, She disappeared up above.

... A Love Poem Before the very dawn of time, Before the earth was round; Before there was a sight to see, Or what we know as sound. God formed you then, within His mind, With expertise and care; He planned each detail in advance, He numbered every hair. He picked your very temperament, He planned your every day; He knew exactly what you'd do And just what you would say. He chose you then to be His own, To live with Him on high; He wrote you on His very palms, The apple of His eye. He made you gifts to pleasure you, To brighten up your eyes; He made the earth, He made the sea, He made the endless skies. To bring you joy, He made the birds, To see you smile, the flowers; To comfort you when things go wrong He made the springtime showers. He gave His angels a command ...

... A Child's Love A child's love is like a whisper, given in little ways we do not hear. But if you listen closely it will be very clear. They often do not say it loud, but in how they come to you. Daddy, will you play with me? Mommy, tie my shoe? The many ways they tell you, changes as they grow. Dad, I made the team today! Mom, I've Got to go! Pop, I need some money, You see there's. this girl at school. Mama, I met a boy today and Wow, he's so cool! Dad, I've got something to tell you. I think she is the one! Mom, he asked me to marry him. Would you love him as your son? Dad, I've got some news for you. It's going to be a boy! Mom, I'm kind of scared of this, yet I'm filled ...

... Genuine Love Sometimes I hear," I love you" But there's few signs it's true, Everyone is so busy, There's no time for you. But then there comes an occasion. The words ring true and clear," I love you" means a blessing. And someone's help is near! They scrub an unseemly bathroom, Or mop a kitchen floor. Or do the weekly laundry, That we're unable to do anymore. They give without hesitation, From a warm and loving heart, And it's the kind of situation, That helps a gloomy life to a new start. Thank God for these special gifts, That enfold us along our way. And constantly be thankful, For those who take the time to pray. Life can be worth the living, Where warm love goes around. These are God's special angels Who walk on holy ground. One day we may be able to pay back, To give someone a new ...

... A Child of Love Today they're speaking about how he has grown Since that very first day when they brought him home And they're speaking of little things he says and does Forever changing their lives from the way that it was They watch as he plays with his fingers and toes Or how he turns cross-eyed from touching his nose He'll make funny faces and make silly sounds And of the love they have for him there is no bounds If mom's in the kitchen preparing the meals She'll know where to find him; he's right by her heels And somehow she'll just know all he's getting into It's something that most moms just know how to do Or he'll sit in his highchair looking a mess Always making them wonder why they got him dressed He'll make messes of sweet peas, of carrots, or pears 'Til they say let's buy clothes with the food that he wears His dad picks him up and wipes off his chin Kidding," Oh there you are ...

... The Fortress Of Love Every marriage has its bumps in the road And they can pop up at any time. We must learn to navigate them safely With fairness, faith and open mind. No matter how far in your marriage you've gone The highway of love has its rules. The excitement of sex, trust and affection Never tolerates self-serving fools. They say marriages are made in heaven, But so are tornadoes, lighting and thunder. Cold hearts and hot heads never solve anything They just destroy what we love by blunder. Boredom, frustration, irritations and anger Douse the spark between you and your mate. More of the same fails to feed love s flame Till you wake up to find it's too late Human touch sustains the release of endorphins For both the giver and receiver. Never be afraid to hug your partner. For the language of touch is a reliever. Always remember to support your spouse When times of dilemma arise. The ...

... If You Could Love Me If you could love me enough to believe me when I tell you that I AM for you and stand in that faith. If you could seek me for every need, trusting that I will always do the most loving thing possible. If you could walk in paths as I guide you, with your eyes on me and not on the storm. If you could believe that nothing can harm you, with me at your side. If you could welcome our friendship, to realize things others only dream of. Then you might love me, with all your heart; And I could love you with all of mine. Love, God~*~Joyce C.

There is my husband, who tries so hard, To be my provider, protector and bard. In his wisdom God chose a man for me Whose whole life revolves around his family.

My brother has Dad's brain. My sister has Mom's eyes. I wish I had inherited other, Than just Aunt Lucy's thighs! I do have one family mark. From my heavenly Father above. He said they can tell His children, Because our hearts overflow with love! He said that He would make for us. A place in Heaven fair. And He will have it ready, By the time we enter there!

... What You Will Be? As I gazed up at the mountains, I was awed by their majesty; I bowed my head and asked myself," Why should He care for me? I am not great like the mountains that tower so high above, What is there about me that God can find to love ?"" Father, I am not strong like the wind that makes your tall trees sway, I cannot sing sweetly like your birds; will you love me anyway? But most of all, I am simply me, and often have cause to fear, In spite of all my weaknesses, do you promise to be near ?" With eyes closed tight against my tears, I wished He could hear me pray. Then I felt His Spirit tell me," Child, look up, I have something to say." You are simply you, the spirit I love, a part of my great plan. I put ...

From time to time, I'd see her stop, And sing her childish tune." Peek A Boo-I see You" Her sweet face looked so intent." Peek A Boo-I love You" Then down the path she went. I saw her do this several times, Poor, lonesome child, I thought. She only has a nursery rhyme, To go with her on her walk." Peek A Boo-I see You" She did it then once more." Peek A Boo-I love You" Then I scurried out my door. I could not stand it any longer, What did this child see? I hurried up and caught her ...

But when I ’ m with him late at night, The time somehow just flies, And then it ’ s later than I know, Before I realize. We seem to fit together, Like a hand inside a glove. It ’ s hard when you are drawn together, Not to fall in love. So many things you share together, Digging deep inside. The barriers are all torn down, And hearts are open wide. I ’ ve never felt this way before, Or loved so much to share. I guess it ’ s just because I know, That he does really care. I talk to others in my life, The friends I have are fine. What mystifies me most of all, Is this one is on-line. His words are all so ...

... Working Wrecks I came upon a wreck Along the highway of life; A sick sadistic man Abusing his helpless wife. He hadn ’ t learned the scriptures written long before, Love your wife as yourself; You ’ ll love her more and more. The next mishap I happened on Was a kid high on drugs Who had no one to nurture him Give guidance and some hugs. A woman out in sin With no concern for her own soul; Hadn ’ t been with Jesus Or He would have made her whole. I came upon a marriage, broken, Overturned along the way; Instead of love at home Both had gone out to play. An aged man and woman, Lives filled with tears; No one to love and care for them In life ’ s sunset years. I saw a fallen Hobo Drunk on cheap red wine; He hadn ’ t had a meal, Didn ’ t have a dime. I fed ...

... Dirty Angel Standing here in silence, Just looking at her stone, It ’ s been exactly fourteen months, Since I was left alone. My world revolved around her, And our whole life had been planned, But she was taken from me, And I do not understand. The reason life can go astray, And treat you so unfair, You think the people that you love, Will constantly be there. As I stood before the grave, My eyes began to blur, Then I heard a soft voice say," I know you really miss her" I turned and saw a soiled gardener, With his muddy rake and hoe. He said," it never seems to be, The right time when they go" I dried my eyes not wanting him, To think that I was weak. He smiled, then looked me in the eyes, Then he began to speak. I wanted not to hear him, ...

... An Unconditional Love His dear wife now had Alzheimers, her mind in a bad way; He placed her in a care home, but he saw her every day. He brought her favorite roses and a Persian cat to touch; He'd sing to her and brush her hair," I love you~oh, so much !" Sometimes he'd read her stories or explain things on TV, He longed to hear her call his name but knew it couldn't be. One day a patient watched them~how he'd gently hold her hand, The patient, filled with wonderment, said" I don't understand." She doesn't even know you, sir, you might as well be dead !""

... His Love For All I just got off of my webtv, I wrote a poem about my Jesus. I wrote of His love for you and me, Of how He died for sinner's like us. It's amazing to think of His love for all, No one on earth has that type of love. I never dreamed I'd hear Him call, But I did, and it was as sweet as a dove. My life has changed since that day, My soul is clean, through and through. If only you knew of what I know today, You'd be calling on the Lord Jesus too. If you call on the Lord Jesus today, You'll be amazed of the joy you'll feel. Remember they took our Jesus away, On that dreadful day up Calvary's Hill.

But He who is all wisdom Chose to place in hands of love The future of the universe, The glory of above. He knew there was no other love On earth which could compare To the unique devotion Of a mother's special care. So deep His trust in this rare love, His faith in it so sure; He gave a mother His own Son, Entrusting Him to her. In doing so, God lifted up This role above all others, And proved that there's a soft spot In His heart of hearts for mothers! -Connie-[ by: Connie Hinnen Cook (cjcook @mynewroads.com)-from Connie Hinnen Cook] Inspirational Poems SkyWriting.Net All Rights Reserved. ...

... Unrequited Birthday Love I bought a card for you last week if only I can find it, it should arrive your natal day with all my love behind it. You've moved two times since my last card, you never did write back, I know I had your address once but somehow I've lost track. So I'll spend three hours finding it then write it out just so, then decorate the envelope: a birthday-sticker bow. I can't recall when you last phoned or how long since you wrote, but I'll find fancy paper and insert a friendly note. Then just before I send it off I'll cover it with prayer, that God will bless your special day till you have joy to spare. And once it's there within your hands you'll tear it carelessly, and in your fast-paced, hurried life, won't even think of me. My card won't see the light of day, you'll peek in it for cash, and when you're ...

... My Love Is Forever When I was young I thought I would never feel afraid. When I grew older I thought I would never find peace. Sometimes life teaches me the things that I already thought I knew. I once asked the forgiveness of every star I saw. But there are no mistakes, only lessons. Life continues to be my teacher although sometimes I feel too weary to learn. Our journey will take us to somewhere we have never been. There're a hundred changes we can make, a thousand paths to take, And a million dreams. If we have hope, we are halfway to where we want to go. If we are hopeless, we are lost forever. Many will say our love holds no future. Many will decide our choices will bring despair. I know nothing of how to live but I can know many uncertain things. I give you my heart, I tell you my dreams. I kiss ...

... longer stand in the presence of God at all, because man had made a dreadful mistake, taken a terrible fall. Yes, God could have prevented this; He has that kind of power. But we are not His puppets, so free will is always ours. Now there was a chasm between God and man. And in that great chasm there was no one fit to stand. God loved us so much, but He is also totally just. His love and justice were in conflict, because holiness is a must. The Jews made many sacrifices to atone for their many sins. And God saw that the ultimate sacrifice would have to be made by Him. The Jews would bring animals, a spotless, perfect lamb, and God is the only one that's perfect, for He is the great" I am" So God the mighty Father asked His only son if He would make that sacrifice, if He would be the ...

... Answered Prayer In evening prayer we sought You, We came before Your Throne; And though I heard his every word, He spoke to You alone:" You know how much I love this woman, Show her, Lord, for me" He spoke his prayer like You were there, His one request of Thee." I need someone of flesh and blood, Someone to hold my hand. And though Your grace should fill his place, I pray You'll understand. I'm learning how to love You, Lord, I'm trusting all I can. Please send Your love from up above And put it in my man" Though my prayer was so long ago, And his is so brand new; Last year, last night .within Your sight, It's all the same to You. And in Your love, and in Your time, You showed what Your way is~With methods rare beyond compare, You answered mine with his ...

... makes me cry, I tell myself" Just forgive" And then I really try! But hurts can sometimes linger. No matter what we say. Another day still passes. And I neglect to pray! My hurt feelings begin to swell. I can tell my heart gets colder, too. But still I refuse to kneel and pray. I'd feel so much better if I talked to You! Dear Lord, I so much need You then! And I love You so very much. Come and comfort me with love, And let me feel Your tender touch! Your tenderness and love soothes my soul. As I fall to my knees in prayer. It washes my heart and makes me feel, Like Spring, when a rainstorm clears the air! There's so little time left, Lord. Don't let me waste it feeling blue. Help me to remember to forgive, For I want to be more like You! Lord, ...

... believe it be. Though, you have to be nice, Says the Good Book to thee. That is God's desire for us all. We are created for His glee. I will be your teacher Of all God is or ain't. By failure or sample, You'll learn to be a Saint. If we climb great heights or Fail in 'all we can be, God forever remains the same As He still loves both you and me. Whether you care to love Or lean more toward sin's hate, I am here for purpose As one God did create. If you feel otherwise, Talk to God Almighty. He knows that 'I am what I am ' Because I am ordained to be. You can choose the bitter Or begin a clean slate. We're in this, together. In that, we can relate. I could be the sanding That softens your feet Or the most lovely of blessings, Providing your spiritual meat. The ...

... Say So At times I feel I won ’ t make it through, No matter how hard I try. But I must continue to trust in You, For my needs You will supply. Why? Because You say so! When life deals me a tragic blow, And I think I can ’ t face the trials. I know that You will give me strength, To walk the long rough miles. Why? Because You say so! When someone I love so dearly, Hurts me deeply and wounds my heart. I think, Oh God, can I accept this? Yes, You ’ ll help me make a new start. Why? Because You say so! When others with whom I have to deal, Look down on me with distaste. I ’ ll continue to love them as myself, And through me they ’ ll see Your grace. Why? Because You say so! When I find it hard to ...

... She has been gone for many years and life has changed so much, But I can still remember Grandma Annie's special touch. And all the things she taught me and the precious memories, I guess I'm not the only one with memories such as these. But back then life was simple and it seemed so fresh and pure, I know some things are better now, but some I'm not so sure. But on this day we set aside for women that we love, You also may have loved ones who have now gone up above. You think about the present and you think about the past, A mother, wife, or grandma who's love will forever last. They touched your life and heart and soul with love so pure and true. And Mother's Day our thoughts express to them," I still love you" [by James A. Kisner 2003 (PoppyK1 @aol.com)-{ used with permission}] Inspirational Poems ...

... Angel Plea for the World Angels, if you are listening, please send help from up above Not for me, dear angels, but for the ones I love. Like a broken mirror, they lie shattered on the floor. They cannot see you or feel your presence anymore. Angels, if you are listening, I cry to you for light. They've lost their will for living and cannot fight this fight. Everything in life is chaos, so much disarray. They cannot see the promise or the light of a new day. Angels, if you are listening, please adhere my plea. I love them more than life itself, I love them more than me. Lost within a whirlwind of depression, gloom, despair. Please light the fire within them and let him know you're there. Angels, if you're listening, please know that I believe. I know your there to help us and I'm down on bended knee ...

... when I grew to be a man, I tried to do the same. I lost my grandma Ruby when I had my own family, One Christmas morning we were gathered by our Christmas tree. My Mom came over and I knew she had something to say, With teary eyes she said your grandma Ruby died today. She had sent a package just a few short weeks before, With presents for my children she has purchased at the store. With all the love she had to give she had kept it alive, The Christmas box sent in the mail until the day she died. So now that I am older and I have my own family, That tradition that she started means so much to me. Every year two weeks before our Christmas Day has come, My grandchildren each get a box and I fill everyone. I am very fortunate they all live close to me, So early in the morning I make my delivery. ...

... the physical shape of this poem) Two arms open wide Two sinners on each side Two eyes tearing One heart grieving One grandiose plan One innocent man Nailed was He To a tree He suffered and bled So we would no longer be dead The King of Kings and Lord of Lords were just two of the names given to Him by many who believed that He was! For the true Son of God, the Christ came to deliver us all and He showed us the love that He did and still does! He died for us for God did allow Oh how grateful we all are now All this Love He now leaves us For this blessed hope in Jesus To abide in His ways for sure To believe in faith that ’ s pure To sacrifice His Life for all Was the greatest gift of all On this very truth and fact Only with faith can you act Faith in Him as Holy Lord With the Bible as your sword His death on the ...

... last time that I see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more. If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day. If I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute or two, I'd stop and say" I love you ," instead of assuming, you would KNOW I do. If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day, well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can just let this one slip away? For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight, and we always get a second chance to make everything right? There will always be another day to say our" I love you's ", And certainly there's ...

... I'll shop, I'll read, I'll sleep a night through !" From the room above, the youngest did fret." Mommy ?! Come quickly, I'm scared and I'm wet" The clone replied," I'm coming, sweetheart"" Hey ," the mom smiled," She sure knows her part" The clone changed the child and hummed her a tune, as she bundled the small one in a blanket cocoon." You're the best mommy ever. I really love you" The clone smiled and sighed," And I love you too" The mom frowned and said," Sorry, Santa, no deal. That's my child's LOVE she is going to steal" Smiling wisely, Santa said:" To me it is clear, Only one loving mother is needed here" The mom kissed her child and tucked her in bed." Thank You, Santa, for clearing my head. Sometimes I forget, it won't be very ...

... Praise The Lord For Christian Mothers Praise the Lord for Christian Mothers! God has trusted to their care little children, precious children, for His kingdom to prepare. Sometimes sweet and sometimes frightening is this awesome task they bear, but, praise God, He is beside them, and He hears each mother's prayer. Gracious Father, Lord of Heaven, Thank You for each precious life! Each a challenge, each a privilege; Help me show them love, not strife.

They are His, but graciously He bids her train them through His Word. Bring them up to love and serve Him, tell them of His home above. Gently lead them to the Savior-Love them with His boundless love ...

... To My Husband For Valentine's Day! I was all alone and lonely, no one to tell my troubles to. Watching sunsets by myself, long before I met you. All my life I'd dreamed of love, to meet someone and lose my heart. but then nothing ever happened, I just couldn't get a start! I prayed God would send someone, with whom I could share my life. Then I'd never be alone, I could be someone's wife. Then one day, I met you. We hit it off, right from the start. It wasn't long before I knew. Here's the one who holds my heart! You were loving, kind and gentle. Just the way I knew you'd be. I was really happy, too, when you said that you loved me! I am your's and you are mine. We belong together now. I couldn't make it without you, I just really don't know how ...

... Always There What can I say about you dad that qualifies as praise? The way you show your love for me in many different ways. The words may not be spoken to express that love for me, But I know dad you love me, it's in everything I see. I see how hard you work to earn a living everyday, And I know where the money goes when you receive your pay. You take care of the family as you work to earn a living, But more than monetarily you just can't stop from giving. Unselfishly you sacrifice your time and energy, And always when I need your help you still have time for me. There's nothing you won't do for me if it is for my best, Even times when it may seem that I am just a pest. You've made me realize that I can always count on you, That I will have your full support in anything that I do. To ...

... Butterflies For Jesus This year I finally realized, my relationship with God, had only been a friendship, which was not at all that odd. Not knowing what was missing, I didn't have a clue, my feelings now have changed, the love I feel brand new. The more I learn about Him, the closer that I feel, He has a plan just for me, I want to do His will. We all want a love, to call our very own, I truly am in love with Him, His love for me He has shown. A little fire once burned dim, now that flame burns bright, His spirit fills me deep inside, I feel Him day and night. Butterflies I have, for Jesus I must say, His spirit fills my soul, in my heart He'll always stay. [By Anna Copeland-from Ashley] Inspirational Poems SkyWriting.Net All Rights Reserved. ...

... saw an envelope that said" Please read if I'm not here" She sat there almost motionless as if she had been smitten, And then she slowly opened it to see what he had written. My precious, precious loving wife is how it did begin, I have to be the luckiest of all the other men. To have a wife so precious who means all the world to me, I had to be more fortunate than any man could be. The love that you have given me made for a happy life, But you mean so much more to me, much more than just a wife. When I would have depression that I thought would never end, You would always be there as my closest, dearest friend. When I had to make decisions and did not know how, You would help me find the answer just being a pal. When I had ideas and tried to get them all in order, You would ...

... To Touch The Heart To touch the heart of someone dear-though it might sometimes cause a tear to fall or rest upon the cheek-'Tis something we all should seek. For often hearts not touched at all, start hardening and shrinking small. And then the time it takes to grow A loving heart again-is very slow. For hearts expand as those who care-extend their love and-let us share a moment, space or special phrase, that eases pain on dreary days. Or simply starts our lips to smile, and brightens time for just a while. The ways and kinds and means of sharing, it seems to me-are based on caring. And though we're often worlds apart, You still can touch my tender heart. You can make me smile or shed a tear, And I'll remember you year after year. YOU" touched" my heart and helped me grow. Friend, I just ...

... what He then did seemed so cruel, That the lamb could not understand. For with one sharp and well-aimed blow, Down the rod so swiftly came, That it broke the leg of the little lamb, And left it crippled, and lame. Then the little lamb, with a cry of pain, Fell down upon his knees. And looked up at his Shepherd, as though to say," Won't you explain this, please ?" Then he saw the love in the Shepherd's eyes, As the tears ran down His face, As He tenderly set the broken bone, And bound it back in it's place. Now he was utterly helpless, He could not even stand! He must trust himself completely, To his Shepherd's loving hand. Then day by day, 'till the lamb was healed, From the flock he was kept apart. And carried about in the Shepherd's arms, And cradled near to His heart. And the Shepherd ...

... In Full Blossom Oh, how I love your beauty my sweet, lovely rose. No one could deny the gentleness of your touch, This I realized once you became mine. Your quiet strength whispers with every memory of your love. Your fragrance fills the air with laughter like the beauty of a dove. Oh, how you touched me, you will always be near. I will never be the same this I cherish, there is no fear. When will you blossom? Where will you grow? How will I miss you? How will I know? I will never forget the sparkle of your love. You've touched so many you've made them glow. This is how I will know. Yes, no more thorns no more tears. Now blossomed, you are hidden from the years. Your beauty has reached it's fullness It must be time. In your lover's hand you now flow, like a dancer free to grow. ...

... this special day I'm so filled up with pride. For years I watched you growing up and always on the go, And as we share this day there's something you should know. You've always been a head strong child, determined and secure, Your attitude about your life was always strong and sure. You reached for life and wanted it to be all it could be, And I just want to tell you what your life has meant to me. A mother's love is special and one day you'll understand, When you have your children and you hold their little hand. At first it may seem scary because you're responsible, For a little life that you have brought into this world. But as they share your life with you then slowly you will see, And then you'll finally understand how much you mean to me. Then when you are a mother and see through a mother's eyes, Then you'll know the love I feel and then ...

... Should Tomorrow Start Without Me Should tomorrow start without me Remember I love you. Looking down from up above Seeing everything you do. If I become a casualty I pray you will love again Whom ever makes you happy I ’ ll consider my friend. Should tomorrow start without me Remind our boys, God loves all who care. And when life seems too harsh and cruel With “ Him ” they must share their prayer. I have proven I ’ m not a coward Who breaks and runs to survive. Always fearing death will kiss me As the streets of Baghdad I drive. Should tomorrow start without me Be proud I choose to serve. Our faith and our patriotism Earn the freedom we deserve. I miss home more than ever It breaks my heart to stay away I can ’ t help but want to hold you And whisper what I say. May God bless America And all, I love, “ YOUR MARINE ”~Tom ...

... only gave birth but you guided and led, And you saw that your children were clothed and were fed. You taught us each night to kneel down and pray, And things that you told us we remember today. You may not always be" with it" or dressed all in style, But my, you are lovely when at us you smile. Some of you mothers are grandmothers too, So your days for teaching children are certainly not through. Grandchildren love grandmothers and need them you see, To love them and teach them and their friend to be. Thank God you're a mother and enjo
