Welcome to Love Poems to My Love

And so I walk

2008-04-27T12:07:00.000-04:00

It is morning
And the walking now is good
Above all the cardinals are singing
The sun is up but not yet enough to heat the everyman

We've waited for these days
The days of more sunshine and green
The days of more singing and building
The trees are so busy now with sounds and movement

And so I walk
I walk amid the trees
With the air and wind
And sounds of birds to keep me company

I walk to find the answers
The answers to many questions that
Encircle my mind daily
Wondering what will become of the next

And above all the cardinals are singing
Their song is one minded
It’s the same one I sing
Where are you - Come to me

And so I walk
The air is fresh and a bit cool
It’s a good day to walk
It’s a good day to seek the answers from the One

I concentrate and try to meditate
As I walk the circuit
Not once but 6 times
And still the questions encircle my mind

Where are you - Come to me
Above all the cardinals sing
I too am of the same
I too wonder and seek this answer from the One

Yet I've known it from the start
As the cardinals sing
I've known this answer all along
She is there, and she is here, she is always in my heart

And so I walk
It’s my time now, and mine alone
No other but the One to account for me
No other but 'My come to me'

Another day will arrive
Another good day to walk and survive
Another morning to concentrate and meditate
Another time to hear the cardinals sing above all

And one answer I will know
Forever and ever I pray so?
Will the One let it be?
Will He let it be for eternity?

you to me and back

2008-04-23T10:23:00.002-04:00

as dreary as the day may seem
as foggy as the sight ahead appears
always a bright light shines in my heart
beaming its way from you to me and back to you my dear

Come Into My Arms

2008-04-23T10:21:00.001-04:00

come into my arms
feel the softness of my chest
my shoulders are not hard and rigid
they too will cushion your head
soon you will feel aloft
nothing to hold you down
ease of weight and body will flow
to be gently loved, feel uplifted and

come into my arms
they invite you now and often
to be a haven for endless rest
knowing that no matter what surrounds you
they will be the feathered padding
to comfort and console you
befriend you without any wanting
just to love and absorb all your stress and

come into my arms
become one with me as we blend
colours of skin and shades of hair
tones and textures, curves and edges
each finding their perfect place to merge
to be or not to be is not what matters
but to find that special place
when you come into my arms and rest

Together Again

2008-04-23T10:10:00.002-04:00

I can't be without you for long
Seems ages have passed
but its only a week

Being without you
and for how long I don't know
Is that something I'll have to get used to?

I know that my need for you
is more than you're used to
What can I say, I wish I knew

In affairs of my heart
I was always very cautious and shy
Yet when you came along it all drastically changed

And thus my love has expanded
Comparable to the highest of mountains and deepest of seas
Can this be imagined, please don't feel strange

Your need for me
I know may not be of the highest priority
There are others who mean much more to you

I understand this and must accept it
And patiently await for the time that will come
When its just you and me once again

You said life is cruel
We both feel the constrictions
Seeping often into our days creating a little pain

Yet the love of each other
Connects us so deeply and profoundly
It will eventually be the one to gain

If love is for each other
It has to between two persons
Never one way or the other to obtain

But for giving and sharing
Is how to continue
We'll wait until we're together again

When will I see you again?

2007-11-25T21:56:00.000-05:00

I sit here alone wondering how you are
Knowing that just a few hours ago
I spoke with you and we shared much togetherness
Yet now I flick through my limited channels
Searching for something to keep me occupied
Because you are not near
I arrive at one to find Nat King Cole singing an oldie
The more I see you the more I want you
You remember that song
I put a copy of it on your hard drive
The words mean a lot, you liked them too
And I sang them to you last weekend
Oh My Love it really is strange without you
When will I see you again?

I know it was only yesterday that
We spoke with each other more than once
Seeking news of how the day was going
And at the end how the day went
More channel surfing as I need the distraction
The nearness of you is longing
Landing at another channel I hear
Like a diamond in the sky
You know how I feel about you
My bright oval eyed diamond
You're one of a kind in my sky
You twinkle larger than life
Oh My Love it really is strange without you
When will I see you again?

Solo I sip my green tea with fennel
You've said often that it will do me well
Concerned for my health being, you always are
And I'm reminded of you this lonesome day even more
Another channel change arriving at a fluid view
A lovely combination of geology and biology
Colours, sun, surf, brightness, coral reef
Healing powers to anyones need
How I long for the same combination of you and me
Your earthly science and my living organisms
What colourful warm and caring womanhood
Who knows me intimately so very well
Oh My Love it really is strange without you
When will I see you again?

One Like You

2007-11-22T21:25:00.001-05:00

In my dreams there was always one like you
And in my heart a place reserved for one so true
Now I know these spaces have been fulfilled into
The one I've been waiting for

To be alone was never meant to be
God wished us to be couples I know, you agree
And here we are fulfilling that wish
You and me what a fine potpourri

Yet the same in many ways we've found
Past and present, many things have us bound
How lucky and fortunate, how mysteriously true
Yes there is a God, He'll see us through

Can anything be much better in knowing that
When special someones have arrived together
And no longer their worlds appear flat
But fully rounded with arms encircled forever

To caress and comfort, cradle and care
Not like magic, more like a prayer
In reality to see and touch and feel
And knowing that its happening now and its real

In my dreams there was always one like you
And in my heart a place reserved for one so true
Now I know these spaces have fulfilled into
The one I've been waiting for - thank you

An Angel To Watch Over You

2007-11-22T21:21:00.000-05:00

There's an angel watching over you
To keep you safe and always light your way
For you're someone very special
who means more than words can say

And may that angel always be by your side
As I pray to God to forever be your guide
And let that angel guard and protect you through
Your life's journey my dearest love,
As I'll try to do the same too

Thanks Baby

2007-09-06T16:03:00.001-04:00

a pair, a couple, the two of us, you and me
all of these I love to be
and so I grab any opportunity
that comes because you've allowed it baby

thanks from a heart thats filled with love
thats never empty for you Jaan
thanks for your time and affection too
from your old man peter_ji who never knew

what it is to love one so
in such a way that will continue to flow
without hesitation abundantly
to carry on for an eternity

No Matter

2007-09-06T16:02:00.000-04:00

No matter the mood
No matter the state
I need to and want to
Feel all of your fate
Its the only way
I can let you know
I'm always here for you baby

To wash away your blues
I'll drink all your tears
I'll give you my chest
To cushion all your fears
Its the only way
I can let you know
I'm always here for you baby

If you feel the pressure
And tension is ready to burst
I'll lend you my ears
They'll quickly soak up the worst
Its the only way
I can let you know
I'm always here for you baby

I'm always alert
Ready to keep
Your demons at bay
At your awakening or sleep
Its the only way
I can let you know
I'm always here for you baby

It will take time
One day at a time
Just let it be
It will happen you'll see
So forever and a day
And by now you know
I'm always here for you baby

Has It Been So Long?

2007-09-06T15:50:00.001-04:00

Phew! Guess I've been enjoying the company of my love so much that I haven't taken the time to post some more love poems to my love. Well stick around! They'll be on line soon.

Together We'll Go A Strolling

2007-06-28T23:51:00.000-04:00

I'll walk with you
I'll talk with you
I'll hold your hand
I'll sing to you
I'll lead the way
I'll follow you too
Together we'll go a strolling

Hand in hand
Ear to ear
Listening to
Enjoying being near
Step by step
Side by side
Together we'll go a strolling

Destined to be
A pair for keeps
Along this way
And thereafter to reap
For each to know
We've each others love
Together we'll go a strolling

Down life's lanes
Regardless of curves
Bumps and road blocks
To each other we'll turn
Strength of two
Me and you
Together we'll go a strolling

Seeing You

2007-06-15T21:39:00.001-04:00

From close up or afar, I'm enamoured by your particular beauty that lingers forever as its presence radiates from you to me. Thank You My Love.

Love Will Not Fail

2007-06-15T21:34:00.000-04:00

While our ship of love sails in a storm-filled world of heave-hos, the thought of you and me is always prevalent to carry the wind-puffed sails.

As we wander through the wheres, whens, whats, and hows trying to navigate a path that will finally arrive at our perfect port.

Despite any turbulence that will not prevail for we know that our love is so strong, it will smash through all the waves of this disruptive universe.

Two interlinked together are stronger than one and thus we will succeed in the journey that often is interrupted by tempests to challenge our durability and love.

How Much Time?

2007-06-15T21:33:00.000-04:00

The days are long, yet the time is short.

How much can we share in the time thats left, before it reaches nought?

So much of you to see.

So much with you to do.

So much of me I want to give to you.

Whats in a Thought

2007-05-31T15:52:00.000-04:00

It doesn't take much
To trigger a thought
It doesn't take much
To lapse into wonder
Of flooding memories
Gorging my mind
Like torrential rain
After loud thunder

A kiss, a smile
A look, a style
All pictures of you
Going pitter-patter
Around in my mind
As I collect and continue
These flooding memories
That powerfully connects us - me and you

Dancing Memories

2007-05-30T00:57:00.000-04:00

As I listen to the gentle rhythm and soft melody of Chandni Raatein I can't help but think of us.
Your body pressed close to mine as we move easily to the beat and sounds of the song.
Slowly slowly we sway and glide as Chandni Raatein continues to spread its music through our pores.
And we become one, intertwined, almost floating together - what a feeling and view!

Then I'm reminded of our first and favourite song of all -Tamally Maak- and how can I not think of us?
The sweet haunting and piercing sound of Amr Diab infecting our emotions with a grip of the 'don't let go' feeling.
Even his Arabic words make no difference as this beautiful love song tingles our bodies to cling closer and closer with each revolution of our slow dreamy and enchanting dance.

What can I say about the up-tempo dance favourite of Gori Nalon Ishq other than I think of us.
You taught me how to move in the style of your own - and what a mover you are!
And then together we shake the dust off the floor as we gyrate with arms high and beaming smiles verging on the brink of laughter till we can't contain our happiness anymore.
Oh! What a feeling of joy and togetherness we celebrate when this tune plays.

Thanks to an odd couple for more thoughts and memories of us. Remember - Like a dream you can't explain; Love can change the beating of you heart; and Suddenly everything has turned me inside out?
As we slow dance to this song I try to recall the words but you are always ahead of me and so I just listen to you whispering the words in my ear as you rest you head gently on my shoulders.
Its perfect for me and you in the way that we feel.

memories of you

2007-05-30T00:45:00.000-04:00

moons reflection
rippling river
brightness and undulation
memories of you

can't get enough
feelings are intensive
surrounding beauty
memories of you

rippling in my direction
just like your love
sensing your affection
memories of you

giggling of gaggle
flying way up high
just like my love
memories of you

splish splosh and thump
look fish jumped
as does my heart
memories of you

to the very end
lingering forever
just like our love
memories of ~~you~~ us :_]

Love is for the birds... contd.

2007-04-24T14:48:00.000-04:00

Been really nice outside these last few days. The cardinal is outside singing his heart out for a mate. I feel another poem in the making. Perhaps I'll try to combine this crazy love sick cardinal and his singing in another song too. Must get back to work now. Not easy working from home. Way too many distractions.

Love is for the birds! [Video]

2007-04-24T01:07:00.002-04:00

OK, so this may not be a written poem but I have a feeling that the intention of this bird has something to do with love.

Enjoy this video of a Crazy Cardinal that has been trying to get into my kitchen because it thinks it has seen a mate. Spring must be is here!

I unsuccessfully tried to embed the video in this blog. But Love never fails so go here instead to watch this crazy cardinal! OK, so I was wearing a red sweatshirt - perhaps that means this love bird wanted to fight me instead? Whatever? Just click to watch and enjoy.

Any comments or help with embedding my .wmv video, please let me know.

It all happened one day!

2007-04-24T00:04:00.000-04:00

[One more to complete the trio listen to it here]

It all happened one day
When I knocked on your door
I anxiously waited
For you to show
Who that it was
On the other side
I felt so nervous
I almost fried

It all happened one day
When I knocked on your door
The door then opened
And I saw you there galore
Standing right before me
I simply had to stare
What a beautiful sight
Everything would be alright

It all happened one day
When I knocked on your door
And then I knew
That we would be hardcore
Falling so in love
Especially
When you gave me a hug
Very tenderly

It all happened one day
When I knocked on your door
At that moment we looked
Into eyes like never before
Gazing deeply together
We both readily smiled
Then embracing some more
In fact for quite a while

It all happened one day
When I knocked on your door
How lucky we are
To be here for sure
Our love has now blossomed
Into a real delight
It all happened one day
And we continue to ignite

Who can I tell, but you

2007-04-21T16:32:00.000-04:00

[Another poem with guitar vocal accompaniment here]

Being in love
is a wonderful pain
Being in love
is like taking cocaine
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
But you, but you

Constantly knowing
And feeling this way
Every time I think of you
Its increasing the pain
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
But you, but you

Head keeps on reeling
And spinning again
Heart trying to keep up
And feeling the strain
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
But you, but you

Being in love
is a wonderful pain
Being in love
is like taking cocaine
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
But you, but you

Thanks for your love
Your inspiration too
Thanks for being there
To talk with and seeing too
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
But you, but you

Thank you for being there
And just loving me
How could I have known
How could I foresee
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
But you, but you

Being in love
is a wonderful pain
Being in love
is like taking cocaine
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
But you, but you

As I stop and feel
and try not to think
Realizing this pain
Won't let my heart sink
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
But you, but you

Your love to me now
When you said it that day
Is better than when I felt
Nothing at all, I need to say
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
But you, but you

Being in love
is a wonderful pain
Being in love
is like taking cocaine
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
Who can I tell
But you, but you

Just let it be, for ever

2007-04-21T16:23:00.000-04:00

[So I decided to put some music to this love poem and constructed a vocal/guitar rendition here!]

I carry so much within me for you
Thats wrapped in my heart just waiting to
Burst forth in love that is never lost

And love is never lost in anything we do
Discovering how similar we are me and you
Weird as it may seem yet wonderful to know

All of these and loving each other
Is meant for you and me
Just let it be
For ever

You completely take my breath away
You warm every part of my being I'd say
Sending me from earth to the highest places

And with me I carry the love that I cherish
To treasure and keep till the day that I perish
It will never go away or be extinguished from view

All of these and loving each other
Is meant for you and me
Just let it be
For ever

For soon I'll be there by your side - Lullaby

2007-04-18T20:14:00.000-04:00

I sing you this lullaby
Thats just meant for you
Its soft and its mellow
And will gently comfort too
Go to sleep my darling
Close your eyes and go to sleep
For soon I'll be there by your side

I sing you this lullaby
With caring words for you
I'll speak them so softly
And they'll gently caress you
Go to sleep my darling
Close your eyes and go to sleep
For soon I'll be there by your side

I sing you this lullaby
To ease your weary day
It will soften and calm down
The forces that came your way
Go to sleep my darling
Close your eyes and go to sleep
For soon I'll be there by your side

I sing you this lullaby
With warmth and loving tones
That will meld you and mold you
And relax all of the unknowns
Go to sleep my darling
Close your eyes and go to sleep
For soon I'll be there by your side

I sing you this lullaby
That has not an end
But only these beginnings
Helping your body and mind transcend
Go to sleep my darling
Close your eyes and go to sleep
For soon I'll be there by your side

I sing you this lullaby
For weary nights to go away
Cause I love you forever
And thats how its going to stay
Go to sleep my darling
Close your eyes and go to sleep
For soon I'll be there by your side

Love is

2007-04-18T19:51:00.000-04:00

If love is to be given and shared

What more could each of us ask

So take all that I have, freely I can give it

Its your forever to last

Thats what your are

2007-03-13T10:03:00.000-04:00

you are the precious gift of love
a wondrous feeling in loving
the breathless vision of beauty
thats what you are to me

you are my dearest friend and other
my woman of grace and stature
kindly, gentle but strong
thats what you are to me

you are my virus but in splendour
intoxicating and infecting
I'm riddled with your love
thats what you are to me
