Best Regina Poems
A child of the Living King
A tune of praise she'll often sing
Her cup filled with the Living Water
She shares with all,
She's the King's daughter
Dancing from poem to poem,
Like a butterfly serenely
The poetess Regina
Humble, yet so queenly
A child of the Living King
A tune of praise she'll often sing
A lilt of joy within her praises
She shares with all,
His banner raises
Pouring gently from her flow
Of beauty that we always know
Flows genuinely from her soul
Serving Him, her upward goal
A child of the Living King
A tune of praise she'll often sing
Lifting hearts, we sense a smile
That shines out as we read awhile
River flowing poem by poem,
His kingdom vast, her heart His home
Sharing joy, faith, hope and peace
Her lovely writings do not cease
A child of the Living King
A tune of praise she'll often sing
To read her poems, is; o' my gosh
We love Regina McIntosh!

Regina
From inside – what has been my home – I watch the red, gold, brown leaves
striped bear – by the cold cruel winds – from their life’s force, the trees.
They come fluttering down – like snowflakes – to lay on the ground,
become – as they decay – food for when spring comes around.
To these eyes – tears – to these thoughts, these feelings bring
as changes come and winters melancholy song will sing
of the losses – summer disappeared in a place the sun hardly shone
throughout my lengthy stay, soon it will be time, to be gone,
back to the lush green, warmth, and the place I call home.
A journey, an adventure over – this soul no longer too roam
the highways, the byways - others’ lives and life’s story.
At the end – moments and memories – some small glory.
Tomorrow ? – beyond fear and uncertainty – a new adventure !

Every woman got beauty, but you are most beautiful in humanity, even without a make up to beautify, yet you shining like a butterfly, i love the way you smile and i'm happy to have you by my side, baby this is all 'bout love, you are beautiful to you i sing this song.
Regina city councillors under fire
For ad campaign’s not looked at prior
How someone did not think to inquire
Check the news if you think me a liar
This province had some odd news breaks
Like the Tim Hortons with the snake…
The moose in the school for hoof’s sake
But this capital city goof takes the cake
I suppose they were hoping for a laugh
Now it looks like there’ll be some new staff
The response may still be half and half
Talked about around the coffee carafe
They’ve taken a lot of flack in the past
Tried to steer into the skid at last
That plan backfired pretty damn fast
A collective face palm, country vast
A headline that didn’t need to be spun
With marketing that cannot be undone
Since the new slogan that they chose to run
Is : “The city that rhymes with fun”…..
** Slogan since retracted by Experience Regina
Still Managed to make International headlines, well done...
I wanted to thank you
But was unable to explain
What your friendship means to me
To share wonderful memories with
It's a blessing to know our friendship
Is grateful through all these year's
In life sometimes friends comes and go
But special friends like you stay forever
God knows that everyone needs
Companionship and a true friend
Someone special like you
A gift from God
The first day I met you
That I always prayed for
A wonderful beautiful friend like you
I pray you know how much having you
In my life means to me
Our paths did cross with purpose
Special friends are sent from God
When we need them the most
They come like Angel's into our lives
From the Holy Ghost
In subtle in so many different ways
God guide us through to give us what we need
You became a special part of me
That I will always cherish through my whole life out
A special friend like you
Is like a jonquil flower
That only blossom once in our life
God knew that we all need is someone special to love
To share wonderful memories and remembrance with
Whether near or far apart
I will hold you closer to my heart forever
Hoping, praying and wishing our friendship never ends
God has so many messengers
We failed to recognized
But his ways are wondrous and wise
Sending Angel's in our lives
Doing his miracles that makes life worthwhile living
God is always on time and never late
I wished God could of let us met sooner
God brings us to unexpected places
Sometimes God put someone special in our life to love
Today, tomorrow and everyday throughout my life
I want to thank you for your friendship
To tell you I will treasure our friendship forever
And that means the whole world to me
Today, it's time to stand by my Rex hot,
You welcome me with love to your dear spot,
We stand side by side, the world all forgot,
You are bold, I am shy - Together, rule the sky,
Feeling proud, standing nigh - Letting out a pleased sigh,
This time that we get to discuss and share
Is time so precious, much cherished and rare,
So, I revel in your passionate stare,
You own my milky heart - Of your life, I'm a part,
We spend much time apart - Now, that's the Master's chart.
I am the Moon, your Regina, most sought,
Now it's time, my dearest, to say goodbye,
Someday, we'll be seen again as a pair,
Till then, shine brighter, my Sun, my sweetheart.
Walking slow on a forest path
Gentles the soul with still repose
Beneath shadows of the sun’s wrath
Breathing wonders beyond meadows
Destined to silence, so pleasing
Erasing the dark with dawn’s dew
Kissing away the doubt, easing
Sorrows and worries, fetching new
Mercies each morning, heart dances
Birds sing in harmony, enjoy
Their chorus of nature's glances
Troubles fade as trees nod with joy
Sauntering along with the breeze
Sunrays pouring into the core
As day breaks, woody smells do please
Empowering musings galore.

Gentle sway by the centre
The bell tolls for thee
Most Gracious servant
bearing thou to thy deserved rest
And as thou art earthly borne by men of the sea
our prayers that flights of angels
have now carrieth thee to the merciful throne
of our heavenly Father,
through him who hast shown
the Way, the Truth and the Life
Where we commend thy eternal soul –
forgiven, pardoned and received –
to the tabernacle of light prepared for thee
Wither thou goest
may we attain the same gracious gift
when we are callest to lie upon the catafalque
and are escorted to our place of rest.
Reigning with words of comfort and truth delight
Engaging souls toward “joys from knowing God’s light”...
Gina’s muse keeps cheering the heart
Imparting “Almighty’s aura” assertions from the start...
Never ceasing to express “thoughts of hope,” verily blest
Always grateful to the Lord for His “gift of compassion” --- indeed best.
Ministering to fellow poets with her “faith that entices…heart to rejoice”
Counseling* through “poetry and prose without any guile” as her choice...
Inspiring while healing midst her style, “soothing wounds with sincerity”
Never silent to exclaim “His mercy is forever great!” in her spirituality...
Testifying, “Dear Lord, You are my everything,” in full disclosure
Offering “the amazing grace of God’s Son” along gentle pleasure...
She exposes her life in Christ, “alive, filled with passion and acceptance”
Hoisting us to the “wonders of our heavenly Father” for divine assistance.
*Proverbs 27:9 Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel.

you came back around
you gained a bunch of weight
whatever made you think
that I could ever stay straight
your personal problems were
here and there
you almost drove me crazy
prying into my life
I just didn't need it
not the baggage
not the prayers
you stole my friends
and made pals with
their wives
what makes you think you're
doing things right
Queen of Heaven Alleluia
For He Whom did deserve to bear Alleluia

O God
Who by the Resurrection
Of your Son
Our Divine Lord Father Christ
Has vouchsafe (Grant, Concede)
To make glad the whole world
Grant
We implore you
That through the intercession of the Virgin Mother Mary
His mother
We may attain Eternal life
Through the same Christ our Divine Lord
Amen

I have a Christian Friend, Regina
She had never uttered '':
Not for all the tea in Big China,
As though it could give her Angina;
For life ban her from Holy Sinai...
Fears picked from Born - Again Wood Shiner
And Bible Student Friend Georgina,
Both of them passionate Catholics,
To alter their minds lots of New Tricks:
Among them planting cunning Martin,
His fine point fluent Catholic Latin:
At the last moment to Regina:
Mary won't kill for voiced .
Annmarie. By Regina Elliot
Shimmered gold thin hair, heart
shaped face,
innocent look with love’s trace.
She was petite and tanned from
the summery sun-
ivory lace dress past her knees,
how beauteous youth can be.
Those July afternoons of chilled
iced tea,
she gave birth in the years to three.
The Long Island queen,
is it a dream-
that I see you fair again so carefree,
in the days of the pretty Annmarie.
When we’re in the tender age,
we don’t think that will change,
til the thief ancient and gray
took her memory away.
I’ve wept for what you lost,
it came at such a cost.
I know you’ve had some joy
in life,
my brother’s wife.
I recall the days of the pretty Annmarie,
sparkled eyes of depth and brave,
once the color of the Fire Island waves.
I remember the melodious Annmarie,
walking with her children by the sea. ~

One thing I must, daily say;
I thank God for EVERYTHING;
This poem of praise;
Must love and blessings sent our way;
Each and every moment, second, minute and hour of EACH day;
I thank God for EVERYTHING;
My brothers and sisters my breathe of life;
While awaiting My Lord and Savior to forgive me my sins and strife;
Ithank My God for EVERYTHING;
all His mercies and grace
for being close and not distant
for ALL His love
For these words we have co-written;
This poem of praise;
I thank God for everything
