​

Sometimes in life

You are blessed with a Very Special Friend

A Friend who is always there for you, 

A Friend that shares in all your ups and downs, 

A Friend that loves you for what you are, 

A Friend that cares about every part of your life,

BIG and Small

 A Friend so connected, that you... 

think the same thoughts, 

dream the same dream,

suffer the same pains,

cry the same tears,  

worry the same worries, 

laugh the same laughs,

raise the same smiles, 

 Pray the same prayers.

​

This is a forever friendship.​

And when you find this friend

You have found your special friend

Your Soulmate

Your Angel

​

This poem is dedicated to 

My Angel.

Angel on the shore

​

It was early September

The summer breeze still warm.

I watched the sunset that night

Sitting on my bay side rock,

A single shadow in the moonlight

Alone with my God.

In the darkening evening sky

A star dropped from the heavens above.

There was such a calm around me.

The gentle light it smiled

As it fell into the ocean.

I thought it had died then

But no, it danced upon the water,

And with every gentle rolling wave

It drew closer.

It was calling my name

Beckoning that I come to meet it.

I stood up and walked cautiously towards it

As the cooling water

Swirled around my ankles.

The light I could nearly touch it,

So bright I closed my eyes.

I turned to look back at the rock, I once sat

And there she was,

An Angel on the shore,

A reflection of God's love on the sand

Just looking into my eyes.

We reached out in that moment

Our hands and then our hearts met.

We spoke, I don't remember the words,

They were lost in the breeze.

In the still of the night,

We smiled, we embraced,

No longer alone in our thoughts.

Was this a dream?

Each new dawn

The waters ebbed and flowed,

The sun, the moon

Did rise and fall

But we still sit here,

The light still glowing

Ever stronger than before.

Our hearts are warmed

As we watch more lonely stars,

Each single one,

Someone's answer to a prayer

Tumble from the cool night sky

This could be a dream...

But every day I awake to a new sunrise,

My Angel, she still sits here

On our rock, with me.

Where sadness once sat

Only happiness now reigns

My shining star, my Angel

So glad you came my way.

As we sit here in the moonlight

Now a single shadow,

Alone here with our God

Angel forever with me

Under every star lit sky.

​

And one year later...

​

Angel on the shore:  A celebration of love

​

My Angel on the Shore,

As we sit here on our rock,

One year, I celebrate with you today

But time means nothing to me

A year is just a moment in our eternity.

There are no endless days of searching now,

No more nights of tearful loneliness, 

For our love is as far reaching

As the distant sun

Setting on the horizon,

As deep as the ocean

Gently breaking on the sands.

From that moment we first met

Our hearts were molded together

That single spark of friendship

Now an eternal flame of unconditional love.

My Angel here with me,

Oh, how the stars

Reflect your beauty and your warmth.

One word, one smile

Produces a crescendo of everlasting passion

That overwhelms my whole being,

And melts my heart as you whisper

I LOVE YOU!!!!

I echo your words, "I Love You", my Angel 

And like a thousand nights in endless union

Our bodies out-glow a million twinkling galaxies.

Without a single touch

We are joined always and forever,

Two people in one body

Complete in love, two become one soul.

Eternal Flames forever, glowing in the dark.

We sit here holding hands today, on our rock

Our dreams fulfilled,

Our hearts full of happiness and joy,

And as we look at our reflection

In the waters at our feet

We see just one shadow.

My Angel on the shore,

I know we're meant to be,

This day we celebrate our love,

This day will ever be,

Two hearts that beat together

As our bodies they embrace.

And our lips they come together

And all my love is just for thee.

A dream for all seasons

 

When the winter days are short and the nights so very long

You always fill my heart with a warm and loving song

 

When I dream, it's You and I together

When I dream, it's You and I forever

 

When the spring rain falls, and the March winds blow

You bring forth new life and help me to grow

 

When I dream, it's You and I together

When I dream, it's You and I forever

 

When the summer sun does shine and stays awhile

Your love still out-shines it, and makes me widely smile

 

When I dream, it's You and I together

When I dream, it's You and I forever

 

When autumn colours abound and the leaves begin to fall

You continue to colour my life and still give me your all

 

When I dream, it's You and I together

When I dream, it's You and I forever

 

Whatever the day, the season or year

I feel you close and your presence so near

 

When I dream, it's You and I together

When I dream, it's You and I forever

 

Throughout this day, throughout eternity

No matter what the season, it's always you and me

Love is...

​

Love is like an ever-burning candle,

Sometimes it may flicker, but it never can go out.

​

Love is warmer than a summer's day,

That no northern wind can chill.

​

Love is knowing how and when to listen,

Even though we do not always understand.

​

Love is to show forgiveness

Even when it seems to hurt.

​

Love is sharing all our needs

Which will pass away with a caring smile.

​

Love is like a peaceful flowing river

Once it's cleared the fearful rocks.

​

Love is not making criticism,

But encouraging one another.

​

Love is never boastful,

For we can do no better.

​

Love is showing patience

No matter how long it takes.

​

Love is living joyfully, in harmony together.

Showing care and compassion to one another.

​

Love is giving to all we see around us,

Because it's what each of us requires

​

Love is a burning desire, deep within our hearts,

This is the kind of love we need, a love that never departs.
