Note: This is the first poem I ever wrote and it was inspired by the woman I love as has been every other work I have done. I love you Erin. For My Love Wordsworth wrote of daffodils While Kilmer wrote of trees.. And Poe wrote of his Annabel He lost into the seas Their lives were touched, inspired and moved, By beauties pure and real. Their writings stand a legacy, So others too may feel The joy that filled their very souls And caused their hearts to soar On days when life’s cruel drudgeries Could make a rich soul poor. Thou envy once did settle in While reading words so fair, To think of those so blessed by God With passions ever rare. My life while full was missing still The love of someone kind. That sweet unselfish special love, One always hopes to find. But God’s blessed me as He did they, That wrote of beauties past. With you who fills my heart with joy And brings it peace at last. For oft when skies are damp and cold And seem the darkest blue, I simply seek a quiet place, And dream sweet thoughts of you. |

Erin, To proclaim to all and any who chance this way, I adore you. You are the only reason I write. To have found a creative way to express myself is the greatest gift anyone ever bestowed on me and I am eternally grateful. David |

David, this is superb! It is very obvious that, having found your Erin, you no longer need be envious of the great poets. You have such a wonderful heart, and it speaks so well through your poetry!

My life while full was missing still The love of someone kind. That sweet unselfish special love, One always hopes to find. ------------- For oft when skies are damp and cold And seem the darkest blue, I simply seek a quiet place, And dream sweet thoughts of you. ------------- *SIGH* (me thinks a whole bunch of lady poets are wishing their name was Erin about now)  perfect poem David...and MOST impressive that this was your first effort... the use of the classic poets was creative and imaginative. very nice...(even if ya did spell my name wrong)LOL KIDDING--JUST KIDDING!! *smile* jm It's amazing How you make your face just like a wall How you take your heart and turn it off How I turn my head and you lose it all ... And it's unnerving How one move just puts me by myself There you go just trusting someone else Now I know I put us both through hell ... I'm not sayin That there was nothing wrong I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me And I'm not sayin We ever had the right to hold on I just didn't wanna let you get away from me. ~MB20~Leave |

Breathtakinly beautiful...You and Erin are two very fortunate people to have each other in your lives. Well done!! ~Kelly  Reflect upon your present blessings-of which every man has many-not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some. ~Charles Dickens We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. ~Winston Churchill |
