John's Poems

My Love of a Rose

To My Other Half.................... I love You so much

Have you ever.......
How to compare? When the world is not
close to matching the beauty you hold
When compassion could learn from you
To be near you is heaven, to hold you divine,
To love you is.......
Words fumble on my lips, My fingers are
tangled, I cannot express the way I feel
for thee, to say what you mean to me,
The Rose is close but it withers
and nature it's self has it's seasons
But you, YOU hold the beauty from birth and
on. I try to say it, I try to convey,
But alas I am stumped on it, I can only
Pray, That I can show you day to day what
you mean to me, how much I love Thee.

Chances

When in the beginning,
And all seems lost,
Look forward,
Never back,

And prepare for the next challenge,
That will surely stumble your way,
For your life is always full of chances,
Limitless amounts that will always be there,

Until you drop the last straw,
And look behind,
To face the demon,
Or the fact,

That you failed once,
And you’re going to fail again,
That is what you will see,
But there is still one more chance,

One that will always be there,
Never forget to look forward,
Not to your back,
For you will always have that.
