You Are...

You Are...
The most beautiful flower in the garden;
The shiniest star in the sky;
The diamond in the rough;
The angel sent from Heaven.

You Have...
The beauty of Aphrodite;
The virtues of the Virgin Mary;
The hand I wish to hold for ever;
The heart I wish to please for eternity.

Our Love

Our love is our mystery;
It leads us to its discovery;
Let us follow it, like a good story;
Let us celebrate it, like an anniversary.

Our love is far from perfect;
It strives for what is correct;
Let us nourish it, never leave it neglected;
Let us cherish it, keep it protected.

Kaddafi

You lived a king but died a slave;
May your body be food for fish;
May the Libyans dance on your grave;
May your soul be the devil's dish.

You showed no remorse to your victims;
May we give you undue respect;
May we forgive your atrocious whims;
May we use this moment to reflect.

Your removal may be no beauty;
May we rejoice in your demise;
May we not forget your cruelty;
May we see Libya on the rise.

The life of a dictator;
Is the death of a traitor.

Via, Vita, Veritas

In the deepest hole;
My hand raises the soul;
In the darkest night;
My torch bears the light.

In the midst of despair;
My kindness upholds the fair;
In the cruelest sorrow;
My salvation is a better tomorrow.

My name, your refuge;
My love, flowing deluge;
My home, your sanctuary;
My river, single estuary.

I am the way;
The itinerary of everyday;
I am the life;
The passion ending strife;
I am the truth;
The wisdom set forth.

Your Excellency

The facade of your election;
Brings no accolade to the nation;
Your ambitions lack honesty;
And your actions are a travesty.

You travel abroad to collect honors;
Yet you ravel the region with horrors;
Some describe your style as canny;
Yet all ascribe your rule as tyranny.

With only your candidacy;
We have the ascendancy of autocracy;
We lack the decency of democracy;
We observe the supremacy of idiocy.

Dear Mr President

Your might may come from the Pentagon;
But remember even the Roman Legion is now gone;
You may have conquering armies all over the world;
But remember all the seas once belonged to Caesar.

You may have the biggest financial muscles;
But remember Titans existed before Hercules;
You may be about to toast the Nobel Prize;
Remember failure to shape a better world is your demise.

Forbidden Love

As I seat next to you;
Your curly hair is my sparkling view;
I ask myself, I ponder;
Is your beauty the eighth wonder?

As I wish you could come my way;
Your religion takes you away;
I see you and there goes my breath;
Could we become of the same faith?

Faces of Love

Faces Of Love

Love... not just a feeling;
But the salvation of the healing;
Love... not just for sharing;
But the compassion of the caring.

Love... not just for receiving;
But the manifestation of the giving;
Love... not just for the living;
But the consecration of the believing.

Helen of Troy

Like Helen of Troy;
Your beauty brings joy;
Many will go the extra mile;
So they can win your smile.

Like for Helen of Troy;
Each admirer will use a ploy;
So he can hide his imperfection;
In order to gain your affection.

Like Helen of Troy;
Your love will destroy;
Leaving many disappointed;
Making one anointed.

Like Helen of Troy;
You are the dream of every boy;
But your hand is for a king;
Here I come with your ring.

Like Paris of Troy;
My seduction uses no ploy;
I will come to your isle;
So we walk on the aisle.

Love

Love has won;
When two become one;
Love has conquered;
When hearts have anchored.

Love is glorious;
When happiness is victorious;
Love is pure;
When feelings are mature.
