Best Wifeme Poems
The name's Ike.
Some a ya might a met me before,
in my very first write,
and knew me as the stalker with the walker.
"Retired Romance" was the name,
Spoke about meetin' my wife,
She's here with me, name is Jane.
I likes ta call her the Mrs.,
cause I never thought that would happen again.
Now she like ta near smother me with kisses,
but gives me room ta write now and then.
We had us one of them honeymoons,
she says it ain't over yet.
But dang, if'n it ain't over soon,
we'll have ta call me in a vet!
Ennyways, I wanted ta give y'all a heads up
that I'll be a writin' from time to time .
We'd like ta thank y'all for the nice thumbs up,
'bout our first little Retired Romance rhyme,
and let y'all know that me and the Mrs. .. well..
. ..we doin' just fine !

I stand naked by the mirror
Looking at myself
I look like ummm
Something off a dusty shelf
My ribs stick out
You could play them like a harp
And my eyes bulge out my head
Like a half squeezed Chihuahua pup
My legs they call them lucky
They like two fighting swords
I have the knack of amusing people
With them I even won awards
Now my wife is a total contrast
She’s short, fat and round
It takes me three hours to spread the fake tan
But she still comes out unevenly browned
Just the other day I thought
She threw the duvet over me
But when I opened one eye
I saw it was a crusty bikini
I love to watch her dressing
It makes me shake at the knees
I feel like grabbing a handful of ripples
And give them a gentle squeeze
Driving the car is a challenge
Her ripples stop me changing the gear
And when we walk down the street
We look like a shield with a skinny spear
But to her I’m her half finished pepperoni
To me she’s my fluffy bread bun
We always do things together
I’m telling you, we have so much fun
And now I would like to announce
The arrival of baby number seven
We may seem like the oddest couple
But it’s a match made in heaven.
On this dreary winter morning I sit on a bench in Central Park. Lost in my own
thoughts of the conversation I had with my ex-wife and her last remarks. I keep asking
myself is it my fault? What did I do wrong? The chilly wind fills my ears with it's endless
song. I shiver slightly and goose bumps crawl along the back of my neck. Her words have
left me an emotional wreck. I pull my leather jacket tighter around my shoulders. I feel it in
my bones this day will get colder.
I've seen several joggers getting in their morning run. That just shows people will
continue their lives never mind the rays of the sun. So many thoughts running through my
head. And I hold the morning newspaper I still haven't read. I contemplate over my life, it's
not always easy, and so-called-friends can be the enemy. Even your spouse living in your
house can betray you with infidelity. That is why my heart is aching like a cavity. Right now
I'm doing my best to hang on to my sanity, but I really want to shout profanity.
I notice an attractive couple hand-n-hand laughing and enjoying a morning stroll; and
for some reason I can't control, I feel a sense of peace glow within my soul. My insecurities
diminish from their dark hellhole. I begin to feel "whole," and suddenly this morning doesn't
seem so cold.
I get up from the bench shaking off the numbness that has set in. A very pretty woman
walks by with her dog and I grin. She notices and smiles back. Wow! A kinda smile that is
only meant for kodak! I watch her walk past me with her dog leading the way. Something
tells me "you better not let this one get away." As I'm listening to my inner voice, she
glances back over her shoulder, and I knew that she too was giving me a choice. Amazing
how just several minutes ago my entire world seemed so dark. I now knew everything was
going to be okay because of this bench in Central Park......

The end of my life the beginning of my death
I shall start to slowly inhale my final breath
Fast forwarding memories race through my mind
There is one in particular that I’m trying to find
Is it of the hottest night or the brightest day?
I really don’t know how could I possibly say
White capped waves to snow capped peaks
As I start to exhale I feel so tired and weak
Funny how everything has started moving so slow
As my mind races to learn what it shall never know
Suddenly everything ceases as clouds fill my eyes
For I have frozen in the memory of you and I
Nothing but darkness here at the end of the race
As my final breath of air softly kisses your face
As I travel through the darkness I feel no fear
I’m lost in the taste from the salt of your tear
They say eternity is no more than an equation of time
Consequences of our life heaven or hell shall define
There is one truthful fact regarding my fate
Our Lord Jesus Christ will meet me at the gate
But I won’t go in that’s something I could never do
There is no heaven for me until I walk in with you
I’ll sit down right there just outside of the gate
I’m certain for you the Lord will let me wait
I know you’ll be mad because I waited so long
Sweetheart you are the message inside of my song
And the message my song shall forever send
It could only be heaven if I have my friend
If I were but a stone and you were a peach
Would you stay on your branch totally out of reach?
If I were a dandelion and you were the wind
Would you help me spread my seeds, be my dearest friend?
If I were but a seedling struggling for life in the snow
Would you be the winter sun and shine to help me grow?
Babe when I was so stoned I was totally out of reach
You offered me your heart, the sweetness of the peach
Babe when I was an evil man spreading seeds in the wind
You saw the good in me and became my dearest friend
Babe when my soul was black as night my heart as cold as snow
You opened up my heart and soul then taught them how to grow
And now just look and you and I the couple that we are
Just a couple of happy quasars shining like a single star
So never think in your life that I would ever go away
I will be right at your side until we reach our dying day
If I had but a single wish sweetheart that wish would be
Let us be in each other’s arms as we step into eternity
When I think of the Lord, I think of you and I
Just as when I look for rain, my eyes look to the sky
There is one thing in this life, that I can clearly see
Just as the Lord made me for you, he made you for me
Today was a real bad day, you know these words are true
Right up till the point and time, I made it home to you
Then just as it always does, your love swept me away
Just one smile from you, brightens up my darkest day
I love the way you stand by me, forever at my side
That’s why as I look at you, my eyes are filled with pride
At times I want to scream and shout, others bounce and run
Just the sound of your voice, makes those feelings come undone
I do not know what I’m trying to say, I just hope my actions show
That you are and will forever be, the most beautiful thing I know
And never will this heart of mine, lose one drop of its romance
For every single time I look at you, sweetheart I want to dance
Toni you are the beauty, and I reckon that makes me the beast
Since our love is life's banquet, know that I am here to feast
I remember so well when we first met,
You didn’t much like me then for what I had said,
I just smiled and said you don’t know me yet.
And then I apologized for calling you Red.
Both of us were so young and so immature,
But in my heart I knew our love would grow, it would endure.
The first time I looked deep into your eyes,
I felt something surging in my stomach like a hundred thousand butterflies.
To me there was no doubt that you were that special one,
You had stole my heart, my love you had won!
I just want to thank you for all those joyous years you’ve given me,
And my Special Valentine, you’ll always be!
Happy Valentines Day!!
XOXOXOXOXOXOX
Working on thirty nine years ( Wow )
Her dimples made me smile
When I looked at her face
Because of the way she was
Having style and so much grace
The way she made me feel
Made my heart skip a beat
And just to look at her
Really knocked me off my feet
Oh yes I fell in love
With those dimples the other day
And they are so special
There's just no other way
First I'm thankful to God
Cause I know I'm His child
For blessing me with Joyce
Her dimples made me smile.
People say "behind every good man stands a strong woman"....
Lady you're my beginning, my end.
You give my life meaning, made me believe again.
I saw paradise when I first looked into your eyes.
Finding you was perfect timing, and from the introductions
I knew you were the perfect dymond.
From your head to your toes, even when you get mad and crinkle your nose.
You're incredible, every inch of you so edible.
For you I would walk a thousand miles.
Why not, you make my heart smile.
Your love is dynamite, and loosing you would be my Kryptonite.
Like A B C 's it's elementary.
I'm mean't for you like you're mean't for me.
Before I knew it *poof* "we" just happen.
I live and breathe to treat you like platinum.
So with this engagement ring, I'm asking you to spend your life with me.
You make my soul sing; you're the reason I breathe.
Because of you I'm complete; My god woman, you're my everything.
You are the Queen in my home, my back bone.
In your arms is my comfort zone.
I can't go wrong, that to the world I sing the
Temptations song "My girl".
Inside you is where I belong.
Makes a man feel good when I make you giggle all night long.
Like the Presidents wife, you're my first lady,
my life.
You drive me crazy, and baby only with you
am I 110% satisfied.
An intense sense of pleasure when I fill you up inside.
You quench my thirst, and comfort me when I'm hurt.
Even when I'm not trying to hear it,
You strengthen my spirits.
What can I say you're amazing.
You're a drug I'm constantly craving.
Addicted like a dope fiend.
We are a team, and I'm not too big to dream.
That you remain always the same
My Lady, My Woman, My Queen!!!
My very favorite thing in this life
To simply sit and talk with my wife
About our day or perhaps the past
Planning ways to make the future last
We are beyond desire and lust
Our loves more about friendship and trust
Mornings we share our coffee and toast
Night we cuddle who we love the most
To others eyes it’s amazing to see
To us it’s simply how life should be
She worries because I’m always so ill
Proud I never let it break my will
My mission is clear; journey is true
She motivates me in all I do
I fear my health is slipping away
Getting hard to make through a day
Honestly, I don’t know if I could
Without her love I doubt if I would
Lately, I feel as though I may die
Things are happening, I don’t know why
What makes me strive to do my best?
It’s for my wife I must pass this test
My favorite thing to do in this life
To simply sit and talk with my wife
Wow, that made me cry! All at once
my blood sugar has just started falling
off the charts. By that I mean with a
completly full stomach it will just drop
to 60. They are going to start running
test today. Sorry about the poem. I sat
to write a happy poem, however, in the
ways that matter it is happy. At least I
never have to face these crisis alone.
I love you all. For Farrah's contest.
What is true love really all about?
Lets break it down and check it out
True love is about the highs and lows
Learning to live and learning to grow
Learning to give all that you have got
And never thinking, “like it or not”
It’s about changing the person you are
And never letting things go to far
True love is about a faithful friend
One who helps your heart to mend
Someone with which you can relate
Look to the stars and plan your fate
It’s about honesty and it’s about trust
Has little or nothing to do with lust
I once was lost with a barren soul
Then an angel made me her goal
She helped me face all of my fears
Never failed to understand my tears
She has stood by me through it all
Helped me to stand proud and tall
Taught me to live without addiction
Helped to heal my every affliction
Gives me the desire to rise above
Be all I can in the name of love

Written for Antoinette to enter
into John's "Love Contest."
In a world filled with lost black girls
I found my cultured pearl
highly respectable
and very intellectual
with beauty that extends beyond the skin
to me she is far beyond a 10
in life the best blessing
I have ever encountered
through the Lord I found her
angel with no wings
that plays my heart strings
and gets me so excited
until finally I had to write it
this is my heart where you are cordially invited
to stake your claim
plant your flag,write your name
for eternity you will course through my veins
your the ying to my yang
the name my heart sang
everything is you are my everything
I love you is a understatement none can take your place
your my oxygen without you I would suffocate
We moved so rapidly
became a family
you bought out the man in me
even had my little man for me
love of my life completely free from drama
worthy of being my wife, I did it right not just a babies mama
so I will honor
you forever shatada
I Can't SEE ME WITHOUT YOU
To my wife Shatada who loved me unconditionally. SEPT 4 2008 MAKES 9 YEARS.
Following a note from my wife – something about me acting like the Lone Ranger, I
was compelled to respond in my usual manner. I told her this was a love poem to
her.
I am the Lone Ranger
I am the Lone Ranger I shout out with glee
You are but Tonto - subservient to me
I am the Lone Ranger I puff out with pride
You are but Tonto along for the ride
I am the Lone Ranger - out front in a fight
You are but Tonto along side to my right
I am the Lone Ranger with guns and a mask
You are but Tonto and do as you're asked
I am the Lone Ranger - the shows named after me
If it wasn't for Tonto - no Ranger I'd be
I am the Lone Ranger and when it all comes to pass
You are but Tonto but you save my ass
So I am the Lone Ranger but between me an you
It’s Tonto who always gets us both through!
What is it with this mask I wear?
It hides the fact that I do care.
The silver bullets? They're for show.
They're only silver plated though.
And the horse all pure and white?
To show I'm always in the right.
As for tonto at my side,
The symbol of my loving bride.
Without which I would be in danger.
With which, I'm the old Lone Ranger.

Contest: the Mask
(spoken about my wife to our dog, Petunia)
Dearest Petunia, how I love her so.
Is this something your furry brain could know?
I long for her as you long for a treat.
I crave her touch as you crave to lick feet.
She calms my calculations, lets me rest;
Like when you find somewhere so soft to nest.
Her smile renews me like sweet sunshine;
You feel the same right before sleepy time.
I think you miss her as much as I do,
When we don't see her for a day or two.
There's something I've realized, something of truth;
She's a saint Petunia, she saved us both.
Me from solitude and you from the pound;
The Lord sent us an angel, so profound.
I remember on the plane how bitter I felt.
Looking around seeing all the drinking, partying, and people having fun.
Why couldn't I have fun anymore?
My sweet little wife sat beside me on the plane,
and was so sick from Chemo that she couldn't think well.
Once back at the airport, she needed to use the restroom.
I had no one with me to help her, so she had to go alone.
I waited for what seemed an eternity and finally she appeared.
She had just forgotten where she was, but I guess the Lord
finally put in her mind to come out and find me.
I sat her down and told her to stay until I retrieved the car.
A few minutes later we were on our way home.
This was the first of October and little did we know
that we only had 10 days to be together.
I questioned all of this sickness but realize by having
known her and seeing how she fought the battle, that
she gave me inspiration to go on even through these
bouts of bitterness and resentment. She kept going
until the end of her days. Even played the organ in
church a week before she passed. Even though I miss
her greatly, I'm a better person from having gone
through these trials with her.
