Good day , I have been dormant for many years
Maybe some of YOU can remember my words
I spoke in my Host’s stead, through oceans of tears
I come to YOU, singing ; Flutter with the birds
Humming Hymns : a crescendo of “ Forever “
Barbara Jean Gorelick : my Hosts’ “FOREVER”
I’m beating for her : the Gift of God : to Man
I see the Light again : LOVE I Understand
To be Continued
Inspired By Dr. Ram Mehta For His POEM : "Life a flowing river - Rispetto "
Dedicated to My LOVE " BARBARA JEAN GORELICK "
Right from the day, i opened my eyes
The selfless caress bounds me tight
No thing in the world could pay the price
Of the pious love giving eternal delight
The darkest day turns beautifully bright
Holding the arms of Mother very tight
She knows the unsaid that's the surprise
Bad spirits harm not , goes to demise
Wish each morning to please my Angel
Her presence itself makes days special
Her love and affection knows no pinnacle
Promise to be at least your glories emblem
The beauty of thy soul is so very simple
Without reason you turn life brightly twinkle
I wish to be a guiding light as u want me to
Never let you down how hard may be the go
I dedicate each beautiful frame of my life
Wish i leave before my Angel waves Bye!
May i ever be a reason of at least A Smile
My wealth be your Unconditional love till i die...
One fine morning I had a thought,
from the love of my life,a surprise i sought.
She went blank on what she could give
after all she is all for whom I live
My request ,neither could she turn down
nor did she want to see my frown.
Then an awesome thought struck her
a poem she decided to write on her lover
Though a bit tough ,was her first one
and the flow of words came alone
Finally it was ready but she wasn't sure
whether it will be enough for her love's cure
So overwhelmed I felt, how could I ever tell
Just can tell that I Love you whether in heaven or hell
Let It be Known : I am in “ LOVE “
With a vision of “ Eternity “
LOVE in the Sunset of my “ LIFE “
My Heart, My Soul, renewed in “ SPIRIT “
Her Regality, Inspires me :
My Queen, " Reigns " : on her “ Pedestal “
Lavished with ROSES ; White and Red
BARBARA ; My LOVE : PURE and TRUE

I THANK YOU
I Come to Give Thanks
Mother, hear me singing songs of hope for you.
Thou, from whose youthful body new life spawned
Though fearing, knows not how trust forever lost, ripped two.
Birthing alone with fright, your baby dawned.
Naivety-gripping images burst through.
Dreams, terrifying the soul; where reason belonged.
Stings ringing, one young heart turned cobalt blue.
Each thought a flight inside the mind, until
My mother, with keen words did love me true.
Her nurturing hailed the Son of God; free will.
Guiding young lives on wings of motherhood.
Encouraging and helping, love fulfilled.
Oh mother, years have passed not understood.
I come, now to give thanks to you, as I should.

Kids are so tough but u love them so much
i love my baby but he is so hard headed but
they are so adorable !! sometimes they are so
tough but they are still beginning with all this adventure
they are so terrible but u love them so much there little smile
and cute little faces... and when they start to cry a times u get annoyed
but they are so great they make u happy when u are sad but
u jst love them so much as time goes by the older they get
the more u love them the more they care dont ever forget that
they are the reason u left everything u once had!! But don't remain
in the past live like if tomorrow was Ur last day !!!
Dear God, I'm praying
to thank you for everything.
All these years I prayed so much
for this most important thing:
I asked to let me find someone
to take care of and to love;
To save me from my loneliness,
send an angel from above.
And all along I wanted
to find a love that's true...
But through the years I gave up hope
I started losing faith in you.
I guess I stopped believing
in all those fairy tales...
I thought that any love story
would eventually just fail.
Now, I feel so different
I really can't explain
But maybe, just maybe
Love found me. It's insane.
I know sometimes I have my doubts,
but then I think it through...
I remember to appreciate
that all good things come from you.
I think, I feel, I know that he
is an answer to my prayers...
Because I see how much he loves me
I see how much he cares.
So thank you for this blessing
that you've given me...
the greatest gift, a perfect love
with my perfect man, Mattie
i wrote my first poem at
twelve
standing on the school
stage and reciting it
gave me pride and
passion for what i knew
was a gift
mama wrote it in her dairy
but grandma thought i
was a hobby that wont
earn money
but my notebook and my
pen were my best friends
every word in it was
alive to me
my sister and friends
love what i write
but i still hungered to be
in a family who love to do
what i love to do
and who knows and
understands how much
poetry really means
am grateful for my poetry
soup family
and i hope they know
what this means to me
I love and looked up to as an older brother,
rather than a younger.
The way you stood up and spoke your mind,
I realized because they are older, doesn't mean
we are under.
So because of you, I can speak out, keep my head up
and be proud.
Now my marriage is everything I"ve wanted,
we just had to delete the crowd.
Now you're married to a strong woman,
who will always be by your side.
Tell her everyday that you love her, look
at her and take pride.
Keep the love strong.
There's ones who are against you.
Remember the word delete, they are
the ones who don't belong.
Keep it sweet,strong and loving.
Communication is the key.
Be the best husband and father
that you thought you'll ever be.
You know you are my favorite and
I love you with all my heart.
My prayers goes out to your marriage.
Keep it together and don't let it fall apart.
My LOVE must be infinite ; in so many uncountable WAYS
Until Forever Until the sun is dark :moonlight a mere silhouette
In YOUR LOVE my mind, my Soul, My HEART, MY EXISTENCE
My breath can breathe the very essences of Your everlasting LOVE
LOVE inhaled : sending me the Heartbeats of a Forever LOVE of YOU
How does my Heart LOVE Thee so much , when my eyes have never seen YOU
The Face of an Angel : the alluring Voice of a Siren : Skin; the smoothness of Silk
Earth Brown Eyes with a glint of Forest: Hypnotizing Mind. Soul, Body and Spirit
I feel the Loving Warmth of YOUR embrace Beguiling Sunset Pink-Red Lips Which:
Beckon the carnal soul, the deep rooted LOVE blooming, growing, Entwining YOU
Entwining me to an Everlasting -ALWAYS FOREVER ETERNAL LOVE

In LOVE : Dedicated to my Heartbeat : Barbara Jean "XOXOX"
Happy Birthday mom, another year older.
More wiser, you are my soldier.
All the years, along the way.
You continue to love me come what may.
I don't know what I could have done.
Without you; I am really noone.
Being there for me, you always have been.
Through life; from beginning and until the end.
Thank you for just simply being you.
Your love and support, helps me get through.
Thank you fellow poets
for your remarkable insights
your wonderful imagry
that is so calming to the soul
Thank you fellow poets
who light up the corners of my life
with words of colour
and thoughts to be remembered
I love to be part of this soup
I love to be part of you.
You always called me
the love of your life
I wish I could give my heartbeats to you,
I wish I could give you my healthier joints,
You are my Amore,
You are my hope,
I want to be there,
I pray to be there,
I only want to care for you,
to be your guide in time of greatest need,
I have been crude,
I have been rude,
I despise that-
I do,
I want heaping piles of love for you,
flowers of light and health,
I want to quell your pain and anguish,
To wrap your unnoticed wounds,
I love you Nonny,
you are my every heartbeat,
you are the one angel-
through my life.
