WHAT IS LOVE?
ReplyDeleteWhat is love?
The gift to give
What is sorrow?
The loss of it
What is heart?
The treasures of love
What is care?
The way to find love
What is pain?
The hurt tearing at heart
What is God?
The heart of all
What is feelings?
the sense of caring
What is tears?
The cost of love
What is love?
A life of caring
What is caring?
A life long love.
A Poeatreeman
One tear, one care, one love
Can bring me all the pain
One heart to put it all in
One feeling to feel it all
One God who gave us all.

THE JEWEL OF A TEAR
ReplyDeleteNo Diamond
Can cut it.
Nor Shine
against
Its Brilliance.
Nor Polish it
To reflect
Its Beauty.
Only a Heart
Can hold
This Jewel.
Only Care,
Can keep it
From Decay..
It is more
Precious,
Than Gold
Purer than,
The purest Jewels.
One Tear Drop
is worth,
A million Hearts.
Cannot be bought
or measured..
One Drop
Can Hold
A Lifetime of wealth.
For when it Falls
It Shows it all
It's Clear to see
and reflects
Its Heart.
Its Facet
is more Brilliant
Than Diamonds..
The Heart
will Crack it open
To show all its jewels..
A THOUGHT!
One Chest
To hold
A wealth of Life
A Tear in a Heart.
One Chest
To hold
A Heart for Life
A Tear
That carried
Care to Love.
One Chest
To Treasure all your Life
A Tear,
I gave to God..
Dedicated To
My Sister Rose Arnita
A Poeatreeman
If I have one
Jewel in Life
Let it be my Tear.
If I have one
Jewel to give
Let it be I Cared.
If I have one Tear
Let me give it
To the World..

WHAT PRICE LOVE?
ReplyDeleteWhat is the Price
of Love?
When a Heart
bleeds
from Tears and Hurt
Torn
from itself
Ripped with Pain
Left
to Heal the Hurt
Pain
is not the Worst
I Felt it all,
Tears and Aches
The Cares
that Came
Left their Marks
The Words
that Said it
all too Well
I Care
not Love you
til the End
Yet
Love will Hold
it all inside
Taking
it to the Bitter End
Why
does Love
Hold on to me?
I Gave
it Heart
When no one did
I Took
it in
Shared its Love
I Felt
it all
Both Soft and Sweet
I Felt
the Bitterness
when
Things went wrong
I Felt
the Pain
wrenching
through my Soul
Oh !
I would
not give it up
for Gold
This Treasure
that Showed me
just what I have
A Life
to find it
just One more Time
This Sweetness
that is more
than Gold
One Heart
is all
I need to Hold
It Fills
me with
the Price of Love
The Cares
to know
when I am Loved
The Pain
that Lets me
know I Cared
The Happiness
I have
when I Shared
The Sorrow
knowing
Love can Hurt
The Tears
showing
the Birth of Love.
A THOUGHT!
Life
is the Chest I Hold
Al I Have
will not be Gold
Yet
Precious it will be
just to Hold
To find Love
that will Carry through
To Open up
Share in its Wealth
To
Have once is Wealth untold.
Dedicated To Pamela
A Poeatreeman
There is
only one Heart,
I Care to Love
The one
that God
brought to me
There is
only one Heart,
I can
Share in its Wealth
The World
that Holds
a place for me
There is only
one Care,
that will Carry
me through
To Care for it
in all I do.

HEAVEN SENT A ROSE
ReplyDeleteHeaven
Sent a Rose
I was left with
Love and Pain.
Remembering.
Heaven
Let me hold a Rose.
So I would know
The Love I have.
Now She is gone
My Garden is empty.
I have no Flower
Yet
The Rain is Falling.
Love is the soil.
Will my Rose
Grow again.
Within this Heart
She will
Bloom again.
In God’s Hand
I will see Her
Once again.
Remembering
The Thorns
I would
Still hold Her .
Forevermore.
In the Garden
Of my Heart.
Where She
Will Grow
Even More.
A Poeatreeman
Dedicated To
All Lost Loves
