yet all being said
for the way u held my heart
the timeless moments
never wanting to part
i'll always love you[/center]

Outstanding

It rained last night.

It rained last night
and I couldn't help thinking 'bout the way you smile.
All them forgotten memories start flooding by.
I closed my eyes
and each drop sounded like a sword to my heart
well, just when I thought I'd gotten over you this time,
the cloud gathered together and rained last night.
I caught a cold last night
just thinking all the warmth we had,
it mad me wanna cry.
I'd put all of the past behind
and tried to have me a brand new life,
but then it rained last night.

The shadow of deceit (dedicated to Great Peter)

I'm sure you're laughing your arse off
so you really think you've won
I'm sure you're somewhere having your fun
taking us all for idiots.

You're hoping we've all fallen for your gimmick
feeding us stolen poems from 2000greetings
you're wishing you've done us in with your trickery
but I'm sorry, you laughed a bit too quickly.

Did you really think you were that smart?
To come in here and pull a curtain over everyone's eyes
well, there's always a truth for every hundred lies
and this my friend is thy chastening hour.

O what wicked heart vilest in plots
to make everyone feel they were not good enough.
The wisemen say all that glitters is not gold
but now I know if it glittereth too much, it sure is a hoax.

FAR AWAY LOVE.
Dear sweetheart, how you doing and how is life with you over there?
It’s been so long I heard from you, what’s the problem?
Well, am fine and coping with my studies and new environment here in Germany, things are not going so fine with me here because am missing you,
it’s so cold here and I have to be fully clothed all day long to wade off the cold, I got your last letter three months ago, thanks for the sweet words and the card you sent, it was so lovely, I showed your picture to my new room mates and they all admired it and said you look for cute, they tease me a lot about you, sweetheart,
I know I won’t be so long here because I count each passing day I spend here, I know I will soon come and meet you back home, how is your mum, dad, and your younger sister Nancy, my love to them all, remember the promises we made to each other, I know you will not disappoint me, am not so far away from you because in my heart I have roads that will lead me to you, I don’t have much to say but will love to tell you that I love you with the whole of my heart,
Your angel.
Stefan.

Where is that great thief peter? Has he gone to www.2000greetings.com to steal more poems or he's looking for another site where he can go and harvest other people's poems and paste them here?

Lost ?
How can I help?

a poem will do just right

Nice work, guys.  This is home for me.  And I feel peace and calm from the hustle and bustle of daily life.  Here goes:

Darkest night, silent night
None to hold, none to fight
Dearest pillow, i hold you tight
To ever meet you, Odun, is to forever see light
Never out of my mind, never out of my sight
I owe you one thing, and that's to love you right
If you allow me, maybe I might
Maybe I just might

i wiil post sum 2moro.just saw dis and dnt hv tym now.i hv originals.

if love were a color
you will be the deepest blue
if love were a rainbow
you would be the most lovely
if love were a flower
you would be the most beatiful rose
to be continued 2moro

APPROVAL!!!!
YOU NEED THEM FROM PARENTS
YOU NEED FROM SPOUSES
YOU NEED THEM FROM BOSSES
YOU NEED THEM FROM CLIENTS AND CUSTOMERS
YOU NEED THEM FROM COLLEAGUES
YOU NEED THEM MOST OF ALL FROM GOD.


WHICH IS THE MOST IMPORTANT?

PEDESTALS

THEY ARE HIGH TOWERS OF LIFE
YOU EITHER PLACE YOURSELF ON THEM
OR YOU GET PLACED ON THEM BY PEOPLE
IF YOU PLACED YOURSELF ON ONE
YOU'LL HAVE TO WORK HARD TO REMAIN THERE
IF YOU GOT THERE BY PEOPLE'S LIFTINGS
YOU'LL LIVE YOUR LIFE EVERYDAY
TRYING NOT MAKE THEM CHANGE THEIR MINDS.

under the cashew tree
beside the popular footpath
that leads to the heart of our village
the village of love
where the blue rivers flows joyously

under the cashew tree
beside the forest of mango trees
where beautiful tall grasses sway
happily to the tune of the wind

under the cashew tree
where the leaves are green
and fresh,and the air is clean
where the birds reside and chirp beautiful love melodies
they sing only the language of love

l too need a poem

Delicate flower of exquisite beauty
Hallowed be thy name
Before the rising dawn
The heavenly allure of your fragrance
Intoxicating, Subtle and yet inviting
The cool caress of that silky dress
The way the light catches your hair
Perfection in all its finery
How could the heavens ever compare
Captivating my exquisite wild flower
Beyond my thoughts there's only you
The allure of your warmest smile
Ensnares my senses
To captivate my soul
Smothers me with kisses
Be the one to make me whole

Heavenly is truly exquisite in every way and is truly one of my favourite works. This delicate poetic verse is warm and subtle in every way and will truly captivate your lovers heart.

i sat and felt their eyes on me
i knew that they saw me sorrowing
i still hear his voive, loud, filling me with his dictate
and all i can think of is 'God will vindicate'

i asked and lightly hidden in their eye
is the truth they've been told to deny

but what truth is this?
in truth i know
it's nothing but a rumour circulating in the pews

my guy, my man, an orator in his right
but he has his faults
his failures in the night
deny this, and deny he's just a man
but i swear he's just another Dan

take heed lest you fall i said over and over to my guy
but he smirked, smiled and let my warnings by

today he's not here
i'll not say i told you so
but my soul weeps, my spirit's sad
to see his reputation go

they hate me

check this out, homies

TO LOVE AND TO HOLD
To love and to hold
That's what i was told
I beseech u to repeat those words
Your heart, suddenly becoming cold
My love, my love
I yearn for your touch
Ever so sweet as a mush
Dont leave me, i want u back
Make my heart not into mould
To love and to hold
That's what i was told

pearldrops:

they hate me

err. . .what's ur offence

LIFE WITHOUT YOU

LIFE WITHOUT YOU
IS LIKE LIVING WITHOUT SUNSHINE
LIVING WITHOUT RAIN
LIVING WITHOUT THE MOON AND STARS
AND LIVING WITHOUT HOPE
I WILL BE MISERABLE THE REST OF MY LIFE

give out an opening
check within your heart

how do you feel
guilty or not guilty

one you see at twilight
another one you see at sunset

one calls in the day
the other crawls in at night

while the day is to come and
the evening is just going bye
you sit down and ponder
what is it about your life

that one could not satisfy
but rather you hold on to two

forgetting that
he made them
two to become one

and not three to become
confused.



giving is love
receiving is lust

understanding is love
indifference is lust

thats a little hint

the rest is a mystery
discover yourself

and dont deny yourself
of the best thing
mankind has to offer

ITs LOVE


loveangel
with my own hands

Dreaming out loud:

When you cry, it'll always be tears of joy
When you smile, I'll be the reason for your high
When you dream, it'll be of you and I
When you laugh, my laugh will never be far behind
When you sing, it'll be our favourite song
When you reach, its my hand you'll find
When you fall down, I'll be there to raise you high
When you frown, my call will turn it around
When in moments of silence, it'll be me living in your thoughts
When it all seems in vain, together we'll bear the pain
When you are hurt, I'll be there to kiss it better
When you pray, it'll be of love forever
When you jump, I'll be right there beside you
When you hope, I'll make sure the future comes to you
When you feel weak, I'll be that strong shoulder to hold on to
When you are full of belief, I'll be encouraged too
When times are tough, I'll be with you through the rough
When you need a friend to lean on, I'll be the one you look upon
When you're standing there in that white gown, I'll be holding your hand saying I do
When you're by my side, I can see through the cloud
When you look into my eyes, I'll be dreaming out loud

Love is beautiful,
love is kind,
love brings a smile,
love learns to wait a while,
love is in you,
When you feel blue
Love is true,
It feels brand new.
love is loving you more
than you ever knew.

hearing from you
is like one been visited by an angel.
such memories last for years.
thats why i will always bless the day i met you.
i love you

Ben reading the thoughts of these cool poets but is there anyone who is a published poet in here,i will have to tell you more on how to write poems that will touch the world.

LIFE IS FULL OF SPLEDOUR
MORE SO WHEN YOU HAVE REASONS TO LIVE
WHAT MORE REASONS THAN LOVE?

Lets get talking and writing soon

buy me a rose

O.K. here is a sappy poem I wrote when separated from the one I loved!

How then shall I answer,
When the dense fog beckons
Your name heavy upon its breath
When the sea’s raging tide
In retreat seems to sigh
With your tired angel’s voice:
Come to me, come to me

How then shall I answer, love
When I awake
To the wind’s hollow bellied ache
Where echoes of your laughter linger
Until the night makes its soft death into dawn
Each day seems a decade
When you're gone, when you're gone

Each moment
An endless, beautiful torment
The sky’s sad face shines with stars
Like tears in your absence
When my bed is a cold and broken ship
And your name escapes from my own parched lips
How then shall I answer?

I love it when we are being REAL and down -to-earth.Who is asking for a flower there.where will it be sent.I may have to send it for the sole fact that you love poets[nature][color=#000099][/color]

Love is long, suffering and kind, love is not jealous, it does'nt brag, it does'nt get puffed up, does not behave indecently, does not become provoke, it does not keep account of injury, it does not rejoice over unrighteousness, but rejoice with the truth, it bear all things, believe all things and it endure all things. Love never fail. Are you in love?

ORILINKA, You have a great position there.I have slightly over 500 original poems yet to be published.I have a contract from a publisher in Swe3den here on my table but guess what/i dont think i will sign it after reading your position.I will get them published in phases right here in Niaja.hola me let talk.who are your publishers?Are you self published? T, H, E, N for our bro and siss out there;take this for the holidays:

Do we all believer in living?
Why do some live not
Is it not farlon to loot
Or how do we discuss the politicos

Where is the damned code
The very ones the sprut
I have lots of love within me
But too hooked but these reckless lootings

I give my love to you all
But the best noe is for us to get our groots
Stand up and be heard;
Lest these pretenders soil our generation
Thier time is up
Our time is now'
To show them 'way out
Ant to live in peace and
LOVE WHOLEHEARTEDLY

@ HOT-ANGEL

Great is one who tries
Learning comes from trying
No way to know your gut if you aint there
If you must win
Be ready to contest
But can you win without trying?

No always we seem right
Life itself wont be sweet if its right
But its all about choices
May come back to us as we sow
May be better than we imagined
But the real issue is that we musnt be found wanting

Being in there is half-way up
Seeing all is one sure way to master
One can master just about anything
From all angles and to every coner
One need to have before he gives
To the one that lack?, no!
To someone that has
He for have when you try
And will quickly be given
'Cos you had stooped

Better to fail than hide
There is always a start
The end,we all dont know
The greatest being:
To share,love and live right

[size=16pt][center]Who Could He Be?[/size]

In the mid-night I saw a face;
That in my heart occupies a space,
Although it was dim;
I realized it was him.

Who could this gentleman be;
That means so much to me,
His presence makes me so glad;
His absence leaves me so sad.

He is much better than silver and gold;
The type that can never be sold,
I think of him throughout daylight;
And dream of him all through the night.

Upon all the wrong that he has done;
There is still so much that could be borne,
For his smile leaves a mark on my heart;
While his frown takes my heart apart.

Although I question who he his;
I feel like I'll know him through his kiss,
For having given myself up to the mystery of love;
The least I can expect in return is to be loved.[/center]
