Oh wifey, dear and darling.
Whom, I thought I linked my life.
Ran off, with our scheming mailman.
In the middle of last night.
Same one who brought the letter.
Showed, I'm fired from my job.
The boss, who docked my pay, and left me saddened, riddled, robbed.
She did use up that money, to buy an escalade.
Then ran my dog quite over, near the ending of last may.
After this, I tried the beach, bury my troubles in the sand.
Only issue was, I have an allergy to crab.
Now I'm sitting here at home, on my couch, I owe two payments.
Things are looking sorta bleak, and everything's so tight.
Perhaps I'll make my fortune, going on the Price Is Right.
Are you always there for your friends
Can they depend on you
Or don't you care about others
When trouble and strife happens
Do you walk away, or stay
Life can get tough, we need each other
We need that hug
Be that kind of friend, who really cares
Unconditional love is the answer
World is crazy, gripped by fear
Friends need friends to stay near
We all need love, so share a smile today
a written hug from
a nice right beloved puts
the all stress away
that a written hug
what about the real hug!?
I'd leave it to you
A hug is love expressed without words
A hug means different things
A hug tells a person, "you are not alone"
A hug assures a partner that they are that special one
A hug helps a child to feel safe and secure
A hug says, "I've missed you! Long time, no see"
A hug is that touch every human needs
Releiving the ache a crying heart bleeds
A hug may be sent if the distance is vast
A hug can make someone else's day
A hug offers the deepest comfort we all need
So I hope my hug succeeds
To scatter warmth like spreading seeds
Love enveloped in a glow
To say you mean more than you know
I need a Fayvor.
Do not ask how much deeper
I am willing to fall,
Or how long I waited
For a connection like this.
She is the host,
And I am connected to her server.
Ask me no open-ended questions,
Like how long this love will endure.
The gap between us demands a solution.
I promised to swim oceans just to see her,
But this feels like the North and South Poles apart.
I see her eyes in the blue oceans,
I feel her touch in the morning sunrays,
And find her smile painted across the sunset.
The calendar devours each passing day,
A reminder of every moment without her near.
Now I stare at the moon and stars—
So close, yet out of reach.
Much like this feeling
I hold so tightly,
Believing that soon
I'll meet my dearest.
After all,
We are not mountains.
When that day comes,
I will hold her close to my life,
Tightly enough to squeeze the calendar
Until a minute feels like a year.
Then I'll close my eyes
And relive every dream I ever dreamed of her.
My blanket wraps me tight
and snuggles me,
It keeps me warm all through
the night,
Until the morning brings the
the first bright light.
"Broken vows are like broken mirrors" — Richard Paul Evans*
Blossoms on Broken Glass
In one bright spring we met beneath the trees,
Where wind moved light through blossoms in the air,
You held my hands in mesmering rain’s tease.
My heart ran wild, a horse with no restraint,
Your smile made every shadow turn to light,
Our souls like cherry blossoms in the rain.
You pressed my cold hands to your chest so near,
And swore you’d stay with me through endless days,
“Return to me through all the passing years.”
“A thousand springs, and I will still be true,”
But time moved on, my hair turned grey with tears,
You never came, the promise broke in two.
Now Cheerblossom covers vows beneath my feet,
A life without love is desert without rain,
I dance alone where spring and silence meet.
When You Became Goodbye
Under cherry blooms we met
Moonlight silver in your eyes
Your whisper warmed my cold hands
You hugged me like first rain
Then turned to walk away
I stayed, and learned goodbye
Bitesize Contest no 147 Line Gauthier
Storm stopped
A rainbow, glittering strands appeared
Colours dazzled my eyes
Like a tender hug after the storm.
A single bulldozer
Wandered away from the herd of globalization
And wanted only to enter an amusement park.
The bulldozer hugged the neighborhood children
And played with them without fear.
It had left its metal behind outside the park
And gladly removed its heavy chains.
It shut off its noise
And ran as lightly as the quickest among them,
Searching for their mother among the children.
May we be blessed to understand….
especially on days we’re feeling blue…
exactly what a simple hug and kiss can do.
They help us connect to others
They’re like an umbrella in the rain…
They help reduce our stress
as well as eat our pain.
They remind us someone love us
They can help to ease our fears…
They let us know we’re not alone…
They can wipe away our tears.
I wonder in this time of upheaval
with people at each other’s throats
and countries waging war….
If this hatred for one one another would cease
If we hugged and kissed a little more.
Love you so much, you make me feel happy and fill my moments with exhilaration.
Baby you are so sweet, you sing like a bird making the days filled with sweet sound. Your sweet melody, brings love and light to my moments in time.
Sparkling like a star, you make me shine brighter and brighter like a diamond.
Love you so much, my heart beats with so many love thoughts, it makes me feel your strong arms around me making me feel happy all day long.
Love is forever in our mind, it grows, it builds, it makes us feel so amazing we glow.
Love and relationships have great power, they can lift us to places we can only dream of.
Love you baby, to the moon and the stars above.
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
Love you like the sun loves the moon, we shine together, making us bright each moment in life.
Love you like the wind, surrounding you with only a wish.
Love you like the stars, vast and many, lighting up the sky with love.
Love you like the ocean, cool than warm, making our body feel calm as we swim along.
Love you, with each kiss in time and rhyme, making us hum like the summertime.
Love you like the rainbow after a storm, beautiful and amazing, making us look with awe.
May God bless us as we move through this test in time.
Love you when you smile, for it makes me feel so alive.
Love you when you hold my hand, it gives me a feeling of being loved.
Love when you hug me, it makes me feel like we are one.
Love you through the ups and downs, you make me feel like we are the eye of the storm.
Love you when you are quiet, for these are the times I can feel your thoughts.
Love you through all our days, for God brought us together to walk together every day.
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
Love is like the feeling of the sweet sun, filling us with warm and calm love.
Love is like your face when you look at me with your sweet eyes, you make me want to cry.
Love is when you hold me tight, it fills me with all of my love needs.
Love is when I hear your voice, calling me and sending me your thoughts.
Love is when you show you care, you make me forget all the bad and make me feel okay.
Love is when you take the time, to tell me all of your sweet and kind thoughts, that lift me to a happy spot.
Love is when you say sorry, for any moment that left me feeling down, you make amends for any sins.
Love is when we pray together and ask God to make us better.
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
