I want to spend my life with you,
Through times of red, of green and blue.
For the sunset dance, and midnight walks,
For never ending and the deepest talks.
Red days for adventure, a passion for life,
To dance forever, into the sun filled night.
Seeing the sun, rise from your eyes,
To light up horizons, of pastel skies.
Green for peace, for relaxing days,
Where from our home, we do not stray.
The forgetful days with nothing to do,
The peaceful ones I can be with you.
And blues least favourite, but need to be had,
The days of cold, darkness and sad.
As these are the days our love shines through,
You’ll look after me, and I’ll look after you.
You have my heart, as I have yours,
A glance from you, will make mine glow.
Forever isn’t a long enough time,
But atleast I’m yours, and you are mine
I am going to spend
My whole life loving you
My dear Father
I am going to spend
My whole life praying for you
My dear Father
I am going to spend
My whole life
Writing some poems
For you my
Dear Father
Don't worry Father
I won't let you down
If I make a promise to you
I will keep it
Because I want to see you
Happy Father
Thru Prayer I've come looking Father, just wanted to talk.
I would love to join You, in my heart for a spiritual walk.
I’ll stop and sit real still until I know you are here.
My soul finds such peace every time you come near.
The birds sing and fly happily because they always know.
That you will provide for them wherever the go.
As they glide without effort on a pillow of air.
They appear to be at peace, without any cares.
I know you exist and believe your word is true.
Yet sometimes I struggle to have faith in you.
I’ve seen you do wonders when I’ve suffered lack.
Yet the very next problem, my doubt can come back.
Help me to remember you're renewing my mind.
It won’t happen overnight, this process takes time.
I’ll keep on believing, choosing to trust what you say.
My faith gets a little stronger as I trust you each day.
My parents and teachers did the best they could do.
Hold my hand please and help me walk with you.
Father, you made me a dad, 5 children walk behind.
May I request Salvation for each, & a renewed mind?
Would You also place Angels around my Grands everyday?
Give them each hearts to love others the way that You say!
How will I spend these endless nights,
This heart so thirsty, it calls for love's light...!!
It does not sleep, it cannot understand,
The thirst unquenched, no love in hand...!!
She came and spoke, we shared our days,
Yet now she's gone, long parted ways...!!
I can't accept it, it seems to me,
In those lost moments, I'm tangled endlessly...!!
Now this heart, too, dies in her memory,
How will I spend these endless nights in misery?
This heart so thirsty, it calls for love’s plea...!!
The dream is distant, no companion near,
Though I seek the journey, no one appears...!!
Tossing and turning through the lonely night,
With love now lost, life’s path feels tight...!!
Our meetings felt like love so pure,
She was so sweet, her voice so sure...
From afar she said, "The journey ends here,
Of my love, dear..."!!
My heart knows well, she won’t return,
Yet for her, my thoughts still burn...!!
No words exchanged, no meeting place,
Yet her memory, I still chase...!!
I bear the pain in sleepless dreams,
Forgetting her? It never seems...!!
How will I spend these endless nights,
This heart so thirsty, it calls for love’s light...!!
our nine-year-old grandson is spending the night tonight
I texted his mother to find out what three snacks he would like.
I have never bought any of these three items.
We will need to go to a better grocery store to get them.
Better than we usually shop, for sure.
We do not mind. He has not spent the night for a long time.
Maybe a couple of years; I hope he sleeps better now.
Maybe if we fill him up with snacks, he will.
I'd like for us to spend the night together,
Within the dark fabric of the sky where stars are sparse,
To deeply inhale the mystery of a world concealed,
And to fly voiceless into a dream that never fades.
Let's wrap ourselves within the moon's dimmed carousel,
To decrypt the secret carried by the night's breeze,
Strewing kisses on your skin like autumn's fallen leaves,
That find their resting nest in the blaze of your existence.
May my hand slip over your moonlit shadow,
Till darkness drinks the dawn's first nectar blush,
Feeling my footsteps in your pulse, a silent fray,
And over all that's worldly, may we remain the lone petal.
Gliding through the silver seas that envelop us,
Carrying ourselves with ethereal grace on waves of light,
To join together in the echo of the night, gazing with awe,
Like two spirits known and entwined in dance's embrace.
Let's grasp that our love is an unbroken verse,
A living ode on silent notes, swathed in sightless days,
When the world's cool gaze meets us with indifferent stares,
And our embrace captures sparkle in the pallor of the sky.
If your feeling up to it
and don't mind taking center stage
If you feelings up to it
and wanna act like we're
Engaged
If your feeling up to it
and you put me first
I'll be the man
You need
The one you want
If you put me first
Take some time to consider
Ramble through what's
Going on
There's problems elsewhere
What you had thought has
Cone and gone
If you put me first
I can love all
..if your feeling up to it
Inspire of what's going on
Say your right
When you know you're wrong
If you're feeling up to it
Then I can say
Let me love you
Love
The foolishness away
I'll be here waiting
I want to hear you say
Ain't nobody but you
Love me through
All that's going on
Baby it's our song
If you put me first
If I am your
Number one
If you put me first.inspite
Of all that's going wrong
I'll love the night away
Baby just to hear you say
I am the one
The only one
If you put me first
The first inevitability of summer is
that your fingertips will never be clean
They will at all times be covered
in fruit juices
strawberries first, then cherries,
watermelon, peaches, blueberries, blackberries
pears and plums if you’re lucky
The only way to cleanse them is to
jump in a lake, sometimes a river
without pretense, whole body at once
in a way that is sure to get water up your nose,
really it’s unavoidable
But a fair trade for clean hands
and conscience
The second inevitability of summer is
that it never has the same number of days
as the calendar shows
Therefore, children have conspired amongst themselves
to steal back handfuls at a time
from the night to counterbalance
I’ve done it once or twice myself
Old habits don’t seem to die for me
they just get harder to cover up
what with the sticky fingers and all
Tired babysitter thought she’d have some Post Toasty cereal.
The milk knocked her flat, she fell asleep in their papa’s chair.
When parents came home, they called her Mom Miss Merrial.
Could she spend the night? She was already asleep and there.
Babysitter’s mama came over and picked her daughter up.
She knew these children woke up at the crack of first light.
Babysitter was glad she was home, hearing bark of her pup.
I love you Mom she said. “never ever let me spend the night!”
A Graham used to wealth lavish
And to easy fun The slavish:
In the two had not seen blemish
"Let those who wish it be squeamish!"
Now, it is Graham's white wedding;
He knows where the thing is heading:
Skin to Excesses just deaden
Or wife's face might, sometimes, redden...
"Means I'll have to my belt tighten;
That way all my problems lighten:
What man does, his future brightens
And the blackest of scenes whitens!"
A married spendthrift readjusts
Or faces dragging in the dusts...
You are my Aphrodite......
and I return to you with all that I have, I belong to you, and all my paths lead to you, ...
if I am born again, I will sanctify you and only love you ...."
A?nd I will spend my whole life searching for the words that describe your beauty .......

OH! My Dearest Lord Jesus Christ
If I had a million dollars to spend?
Just exactly the very right way
You would have me spend it by
Your merciful grace and goodness
With your help we would together
Feed the hungry and cloth the naked
And the destitute. For we could
Provide adequate shelter where there
Was none because You are God!
OH! Together My Dearest Lord Jesus
Christ we could be steadfast by
Mending the crooked paths! All
Of that would would be fine and true
But most of all they need to love You!
They would learn to call upon You and
Renew their strengths to accomplish
Their many tasks You would truly want
Them to do But we would remain by
Their sides to lead and to guide them
And You would be leading them in Your
Pathways of righteousness for Your
Name's sake! Your Holy Spirit would
Live right inside of them! And abide
With them for now and for always!
Love in Christ Jesus!

Sad songs are played on the radio,
I spend my weekends alone.
Stormbringer screamed outside the window
And there was a deathly silence.
I like to just go somewhere,
And I love the comfort of my car.
Driving past advertising posters
I see a blurry stream of people.
I just keep believing,
That one day I will meet love,
I'm even willing to take losses
Just to fall in love again.
I gave myself all to my beloved,
But I didn't get anything in return.
I'll grip the steering wheel tighter,
And I will leave the memories of captivity.
No one could recognize me,
Although I was an open book.
It's a pity we can't take it all back,
I'd fix it in a heartbeat.
Music is playing loudly in the car,
It will numb the pain of loss.
I will go to the sea where the gulls fly,
And I will close the door to the past there.
A bulk of deposits
Saved in the bank heart
Love
To spend girls rare!
