292 – You Don’t know What you have till it’s Gone

The value of time is often required in a relationship
The time you put in is what you get out
Sometimes the timing is off
Maybe you maybe her
In relations you’ll come to see
There’s no such thing as you and me only we

Before stepping in take a step back
Before you commit
Being steady
Doesn’t mean you’re ready

Do you choose yes to move on?
Or do you say no?
A heart’s decision
Ways on you so

Take it from me
Don’t let her go
Take the chance
Follow your heart and move on
I didn’t and now she’ gone

Smile because it happened.

291 Is Love like…?

Is love like a well-read book?
Its cover cracked and torn
Its pages shaded yellow
Faded softly worn
But when the book is opened
Its pages cannot erase
A love like that
Can never be replaced

Is love like a roller coaster?
Going up and down
Or just a Ferris wheel
Spinning you around
Or maybe a merry go round
Carnivale music sound
Or round and round just a fling
Trying to catch that golden ring

Is love like a dying wish?
I take with me alone
Life breaks in many ways
As the years have shown
Is love like a child’s poem
Innocent as the month of May
Time has taken us away
Time will lead us home
*****************************************
“Perhaps love is like the ocean
full of conflict full of change
like a fire when it’s cold outside
or thunder when it rains
if I should live forever
and all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you”
“Perhaps Love”
John Denver

290 A Sad Heart Never a Broken Heart

A lonely heart is a sad heart
Not a broken heart that needs to mend
A lonely heart speaks for itself
No bitterness no resentment
Just love that had to end

A lonely heart is a missed heart
What could have been
if stances were different
With the time spent

A lonely heart is a dreamer’s heart
A walk in the park
Moon light in the dark
Dinner for two
A romantic rendezvous

A lonely heart is a lost heart
Looking to find its way
Thoughts a stray
A new start
A Relationship a bust
When it lacks trust
A decision made
To walk away

A lonely heart is a fixed heart
No regrets
No reprisal
No comebacks
Awaits the day
To resume the play

A lonely heart is a beautiful heart
No commitment
Finding a safe space
Quite solitude
No dating race

whose mind is stayed on You, because

289 This is my Prelude to a Kiss?

A heart that bleeds
A lover’s creed
A tender touch
That means so much
Oh, how my heart cries
For your tender sighs
That sweetness in your eyes
A love that only you can satisfy
**********************************

like a flower crying for dew
that was my heart serenating you”

288- Love Under the Moon light

Moon light becomes you
Dancing in the moon light
Moon light serenade
Moon light in Vermont
Beethoven’s Moon Light Sonata

As the day implodes and the stars explode
Showcasing a backdrop that only heaven can create
Appears the moon and its light that through out
The centuries have inspired romance and love
Poets rhyme about it
Authors write about it
Musicians play about it
Singers sing about it
Moon light personifies love
We love under it
We sing
We dance
We laugh
We cry
We dream
No one ever asks why
Although these times are gone
The moon light shines on
For others who need to experience
Its romantic charm
Long after we are gone
***************************************

“How sweet the moon light upon the bank,
here we will sit and let the sounds of music
creep in our ears; soft stillness and the night
become the touches of sweet harmony”
William Shakespeare

287-She Loves me She loves me Not

When I show up late for a date
And she has to wait
When I kiss her good night
And she turns on the light
When we go out to eat
She’ll never treat
When I don’t hold her hand
Whenever I can
When I Don’t text her back
She goes on the attack
When I overlook her glance
I’m taking a chance
When I talk to my friend
You think it was the end
When I try to tease her
It doesn’t please her
When I said goodbye
She started to cry

Love me or not
A classic love game
Nothing to settle
Until one picks
The last pedal

Waiting to see if my heart is right”

286-I Hate You for loving Me

I hate:
Spinach
My job
School
Smoking
Diets
But do I hate you?

Why do I?

Hate you for exposing me to myself
Because you see better than I see myself

Hate you for the love I never could share
Until you showed me that you cared

Hate you for feeling like this
A feeling I cannot dismiss

Hate you for teaching me to love
Something I needed to discover

Hate you for the pain
My heart cannot explain

Hate you for the…
That gave my heart peace

Hate you for being so clever
I’ll love you forever and ever

The more you love someone the less you hate
The less you hate the more you’ll see that love
Is all we have

284- Have I ever walked out of Someone’s Dreams?

I have dreams in my dreams of others that dream of me
Have I stepped out of your dreams?
IF So
What does it feel like?
Is it the way it seems?
Or does reality challenge the fantasy
Stepping out of someone’s dream
Has to awaken one’s inner desires
No longer hiding emotions buried deep in the heart
Fantasy or Bust
Disappointment or Pleased
How do you tell them apart?
Better decide before you start

your comfort zone;

282 Clopin Clopant

The road was dark and quite tonight just light of the moon as it trailed down lighting the Pathway. Down a distance I saw a shadow of a man walking behind his shadow. I did not recognize who he was?


His head was down
Moving so slowly Like standing still
As if he had lost his will?
Nowhere bound
Where is he going?
I said to myself
Looking so lonely
Needing help?
Lost his love?
Is his lover gone?
Did he blow his chance?
No more romance?
Endless love?
Last dance?
As he passed bye
I heard him sigh
She’s gone It’s over
Is that what you want?
I answered
