Unexperienced and quite unsure
Feeling trepidation, I wondered if I did right
Feeling shy but needing a ladies company
I took a chance, to see what would occur

Surprise, shock and so much joy
I found the woman of my dreams, I won first prize
Gentle, caring, trusting and sensuous, along you came
Into my life, you brought happiness, fulfilment
And everything I had secretly yearned for

Not sure how I would cope and react
From that first meeting I was complete
Such emotions flowed through me
That I believed I would never feel

Beauty, tenderness, faith, desire and love came fast
All my hidden dreams were answered
By your marvellous presence

From that first meeting, who would believe
Such a strong romance would start
When we are together all I need
Is in my arms, in my heart

That was one time my eyes fell on you
Among the population in my home town
Like the flower that I saw…
It was you shining among them
You comforted my heart
Making me come up to you.

That was then the day
Like a dove that had lost its partner
I cooed, you to woo.
How you made me discover my lyrics again
To you I sang and danced
Song after song I spoke my heart to you.

Little did I know wild flower
You would return love in abundance
Like the sands of the sea…
Day after day I shovel for love
Ever abundant, never ending
The reason my heart follows you.

Tempted and pleased with your ways
In the wild I would never let you be.
With care and utmost wanting I dug you up
Planting you in the garden of my heart
There you flourish
There you bloom and shine.

You make my heart,
beat fast and strong,
and you make me feel,
that I truly belong.

You fill the gaps,
inside my heart,
like I’ve finally found,
my missing part.

I sink in your eyes,
I’m warmed by your smile,
and the world is perfect,
just for a while.

You make life better,
than it used to be.
You are the sugar,
in my cup of tea.

Whenever you need me,
I’ll always be there.
I’ll be there to talk to,
I’ll be there to care.

Because for you,
I would do anything.

Flecks of light,
across the azure sky,
gently they descend.
Settle weary wings on your open hand,
in faith and trust, my friend.

Carry our wishes,
beyond the stars,
as we watch our life transcend.
We journey down the starlit path,
in life and love, my friend.

I adore you in the summer,
When the air is filled with heat;
Without you in my life each day,
I wouldn’t be complete.

I treasure you in fall,
When leaves are turning gold;
I loved you when you were younger;
I’ll love you when you’re old.

I prize you in the winter,
When colder days are here;
I love you, love you all the time,
Every minute of the year.

So I’ll give to you this Valentine,
But I want to let you know,
It’s not just today, but always,
That I will love you so.

- Joanna Fuchs -

If you let go, go on your own,
But mistakes you will make,
For many other ways there are,
Which you are sure to take,

When you feel that you are lost,
All you have to do is pray,
And I’ll be there once again,
To help you on your way,

I did pray and just as said,
He shined his light from above,
That showed me the way down the golden path,
That led me to your love.

- Sonya Turnbow -

the warmth of love or a spark of light
that makes you remember them;
no matter how long since you’ve actually met,
each one is a luminous gem,

who gleams and glows in your memory,
bringing special pleasures,
and that’s why this Valentine comes to you:
You’re one of those sparkling treasures!

- Joanna Fuchs -

Of these things
I had not a clue
But that was
Before I found you

For in you I’ve found
A love that is so right
It shines all around
With the brightest of light

It comes from somewhere
So deep within
That it has no beginning
And knows no end

Your love is a light
That brightens each day
Of all of the people
You see on your way

Where ever you go
Or whatever you do
All see the love
That you have inside you

That God sent you here
To a place where you’d be
Sharing such love
With someone like me

Is proof for me
That angels exist
And are filled with a love
That no man could resist

I thank God each day
For finding the time
For looking down on me
And making you mine

So yes there are Angels
In heaven above
I know because God
Sent me one to love

- Alan Burleson (for Deborah) -

You make me feel like I’m a queen,
Like being inside an awesome dream,
Although this is real, that I know,
As the love that surrounds us continues to grow

I think of what the future holds…
Marriage, children, us growing old,
And as I lay, with you dear,
I’m just so glad you’re mine, you’re here.

Is it possible
That someone like you
Could complete me?

You're the only one I want
The only one I think about
The only one I truly love

You've treated me wrong sometimes
As I've done the same
But everyone makes mistakes
And your not one of mine

Be with me for the rest of time
I'll give you my heart
And you give me your mind

by Gary R. Hess

source from: poemofquotes

The grey sea and the long black land;
And the yellow half-moon large and low;
And the startled little waves that leap
In fiery ringlets from their sleep,
As I gain the cove with pushing prow,
And quench its speed i' the slushy sand.

II.

Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach;
Three fields to cross till a farm appears;
A tap at the pane, the quick sharp scratch
And blue spurt of a lighted match,
And a voice less loud, thro' its joys and fears,
Than the two hearts beating each to each!

Poem by Robert Browning

source from: poemofquotes

This poem is a section of the great work titled “The Prophet” and is found on page 15 written “On Marriage.”

-

You were born together, and together you shall be forever more.
You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days.
Ay, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.

Love one another, but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other�s cup, but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread, but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.

Give your hearts, but not into each other�s keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other�s shadow.

Poem by Khalil Gibran (aka Kahlil Jubran)

source from: poemofquotes

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:

O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand'ring bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom:

If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

Poem by William Shakespeare

source from: poemofquotes

Ah no! Dost thou judge ev’ry book by its cover?
Inside my soul, I am a tender lover.
Inside my soul, my heart it sings
Of love and other beautiful things.
I weep inside when thou dost scorn me
Sometimes I wish my mother had never born me!
Even if to me thou canst not relate
Do not treat me with scorn and hate.
I AM A PERSON, just like thee.
Look into my heart and see!

Roberto Ottoboni

There is you and eternity in a timeless existence
I reach and you are there beneath the falls
Time stands still only the moment matters
The language of loving hearts perfumes the air
Etching the scent in every rock vine plant and crevasse

I release my hold letting the moment fade
A sense of well being sustains my soul
The sound of a sweet timeless acclamation
Takes me away to a safe place within the realm
Reality calls but repose has sealed my fate.
