love, relationship, thank you,
You could never be mad at me
Wise old man whom my heart could see
You were there when I needed you
Just a young child so full of life
Causing many an adult strife
If I lied you could see right through
You could never be mad at me
Wise old man whom my heart could see
Because of you I changed my ways
Have respect till my dying days
You were there when I needed you
If I lied you could see right through
You could never be mad at me
Wise old man whom my heart could see

love, true love,
Love is actually commitment, you see,
not fluttering heart or tingle down your spine.
It’s adorned with true responsibility.
There’s no denying, its origin divine.
Truly seeks to care for one beyond just me.
The well- being of others, it will enshrine.
It nurtures, protects and acts as a buffer.
and if need be, it is willing to suffer.

She’s wild, a passionate heart of love inspired
Playing a violin, masterful and free
So fast and fierce, her every lust is desired
Violin sparks aflame burning intensely
She screams with pleasure of the fire’s indulgence
Peak of passion has reached beyond innocence
Her mouth open with flames entering inside
She loves her tremendous trek, her awesome ride

Happy Valentines Day

~Love Like No Other~
(Sonnetina Rispetto)
There is no love like a mother
She just loves you like no other
Mothers are angels from God sent
They're here for us from time of birth
God put them for us here on earth
Mothers want their kids safe, content
There is no love like a mother
She just loves you like no other.
Mothers best friends they want to share
They give us love for us they care
Mothers are angels from God sent
Mothers want their kids safe, content
There is no love like a mother
She just loves you like no other.

Good day , I have been dormant for many years
Maybe some of YOU can remember my words
I spoke in my Host’s stead, through oceans of tears
I come to YOU, singing ; Flutter with the birds
Humming Hymns : a crescendo of “ Forever “
Barbara Jean Gorelick : my Hosts’ “FOREVER”
I’m beating for her : the Gift of God : to Man
I see the Light again : LOVE I Understand
To be Continued

Creation in bloom His eternal essence
From the whom, Love a marvelous inception
In a sonic boom, His omniscient presence
As we consume His Love from births conception
His Love in loom, a brilliant luminescence
Angels groom in His Love, for our reception
Let’s assume, that Love is God and God is all
He will make room, with His Love in Heaven's ball.
The form required is Rispetto, which is an Italian form of poetry with 8 lines, consisting of two rhymed quatrains, or an octave (8-line stanza), with a strict meterThere should be 11 syllables per line with the rhyming pattern of abababcc.

Amaranthus weeps in Summer's first burning.
Tears hang suspended from a fracturing heart.
Lost vermillion dreams leave memories churning,
scarlet seeping from the wound of Cupid's dart.
Mourning can heal and be a time of learning,
to once again partake of love's crimson art.
And yet he cannot for from Spring's first seeding
he is destined to live as Love Lies Bleeding.

For anything that is built in life’s domain
Love is actually the sweet foundation
Though finding it, often a tricky campaign
It’s the basic blueprint for our salvation
While not brick and mortar or earthly terrain
Such strength it provides without hesitation
It’s all that I am and forever will be
Love is actually everything to me

At first they were in love, but soon he preferred
those sexy curves of his cute blonde employer
The divorce rate’s soaring I recently heard -
see forlorn people stand in the court foyer.
Love is actually a four-letter word,
the real winner of it all is their lawyer!
I think it’s so sad when a romance is dead…
He shouldn’t have slept in another girl’s bed!

Love is actually a dreamer's dream that's found
When hungry eyes find a warm emotional rush
And voices come to join and produce soft sound
So love's sweet breath can rest in a solemn hush
When tender hands hold tightly on sacred ground
As lips and tongues meld in their dance so lush
To feel love for someone it can overwhelm
Who yearns so unafraid in a fiery realm

20.
My precious desire you do come from afar,
soaring through Heaven in the joy of your grace.
Love's sweet perfection we both shall never mar,
as we do walk together through Heaven's space.
Our heart-strings do play like a Spanish guitar,
as within Luna's light, we stand in love's embrace.
Come dance with me within a wonderful dream,
with you, I shall lie beside the starlight stream.
Join with me now within Luna's brilliant light,
as bright stars, they do dance round the Milky Way.
I am now with you in Heaven shining bright,
your heart captivates me and here I will stay.
Oh my beloved, forever my delight,
for your most precious love, I do always pray.
My precious desire you have come from afar,
forever my beloved, you are my star.

"Fire and Ice Love Duel"
fierce fire of love smoldered, melting chilled veins
frozen in tears from passion's masquerade game
a grieving heart shattered as glass windowpanes
ressurected by lovelight's intimate flame.
fire sparks lovers to trust words so gentle
as ice quells desires strong and sentimental.
elements contrast and hide deep affection
creates 'paradise' or blatant rejection.
*****
while embers glow softly, emotions renewed
scars from dark past wither into furnace heat
remnants of romance lost in feelings askewed
as tenderness begs to deny false repeat.
fire illuminates a wanton seared soul
for fire evokes magic moments to whole.
veniers of ice vanish in vapory mist
swallowed by love duel's eternal exist.

"Victorious Love"
bleeding wounds of broken flesh stained wooden cross
crown of thorns imprinted pain upon His Head
scattered pieces of red robe gambled for toss
sword pierced side as water flowed proclaiming dead.
agonizing death laid in cold darkened tomb
tears cascading sorrow from a Mother's womb.
broken promises appeared to fade away
love defeated death in bright sunshine array.
in fabric of intense love lies mystery
infusing scattered heartache makes one stronger
Deity broke pattern for hate to steal glee
delicate woven tapestry lives longer.
though pedestal may shatter as fragile glass
while harsh wors will hurt deeply as sounding brass.
victory in love and life feels forgiveness
restoring souls to heavenly happiness.

God created wonderful magic in May
By creating our Sweetheart Linda-Marie
He worked lots of magic that beautiful day
And the world is a better place, don't you see
She is certainly a bright and shining star
With a glow like moonbeams captured in a jar
Those of us who know her love her very much
And pray that she will always stay in close touch

break up, heart, lost love, sea,
Like the heart that got washed away by the sea
Like the blessings shown on us flying away
Lost love crumbles before us which cannot be
The need outweighs the displeasure of each day
But life ceased the unified heartbeat within
Time made these broken links, knocking off our grin
We were once inseparable, but now moved
Like stars in the sky falling, they’re disapproved

Floating in water, straight up and down she floats
An angel comes down from heaven to greet her
The angel gives the woman flying hearts, invokes
Powerful love comes from her soul I confer
She now sprouts some wings so she may fly again
Never did this much joy arrive to begin
She chokes with feelings of heartfelt love inside
Memories flood within, rising by her side

Whispers of love before the dawn
then morning comes and he's long gone.
A fragile heart in affliction,
she reminisces - days gone by
when young love camouflaged each lie.
Once, his charms were her addiction.
Whispers of love before the dawn
then morning comes and he's long gone.
Moonlit smiles caress her with hope
'til day exposes fraying rope.
A fragile heart in affliction,
Once, his charms were her addiction.
Whispers of love before the dawn
then morning comes and he's long gone.

~Angels Are Helpers~
(Sonnetina Rispetto)
Call on your angel, loves to come
Angels can do this and then some
Because they're God's helpers you know
They might be busy all the time
Don't worry, they'll help anytime
God created them and they show
Call on your angel, loves to come
Angels can do this and then some
So put your armor, start to pray
For God send his angel today
Because they're God's helpers you know
God created them and they show
Call on your angel, loves to come
Angels can do this and then some

lost love,
Night silenced moon ascends as lonely dim art
while burnished tears bow from a silent gray tomb.
Songs of dreams belong among the red skylarks
as she clutches the lost arch of sorrow’s boon.
Time wades along wild rivers of salt-green dust,
within auburn hair lies are fragrance of musk,
the staid broken glass with dark sonnets of time
She’s gone now alone with sapphires of rhyme.

God and goddess of love and beauty enlaced
with aster in a satin sky, two hearts clenched
forever as one in a lover's embrace
Souls enraptured, desires of flesh ne'er to quench
In a timeless tale, soul mates excavated
Love at first sight conceived from his birth, her seed
of passion was planted, babe cultivated
'til mature, his splendor became her heart's need
The Garden of Adonis shall forever bloom with his beauty
Near a flowing river, grows from bloodshed and nectar, red anemone
He is fated to share his eternal love with Aphrodite of the sky
Tempted from the heavens and underworld, their fervor shall not die

lost love,
You left me sitting on the edge of a cliff
As I sat waiting, I wondered where you were
I became worried lost in the world of if
All of those what ifs that cause my mind to blur
I wondered if we were really meant to be
Perhaps if I jumped I could set myself free
I turned to glance back and see if you were there
Thankfully I watched the wind blow through your hair
First attempt at a Rispetto.

An enchanting movement with green eyes allure......
twilight wistful along passionate stream flow......
a rapture spills free on untouched dreams of pure.....
this theatrical moment loves grace bestow
lightly brushed vineyards flow through innocent land
suggestive submission, I reach for her hand......
purification in her loving demure......
subtle songs of desire within hearts stir.....

Don't learn all in life the hard way
Be positive, keep faith each day
And hope that you opt for what's right
Think twice thrice before wrongs you do
Only you decide what's to be
Let love illuminate life bright
Don't learn all in life the hard way
Be positive, keep faith each day
Do what you think better, be wise
Be smart before problems arise
And hope that you opt for what's right
Let love illuminate life bright
Don't learn all in life the hard way
Be positive, keep faith each day.

Surrender, An Offering of Love
Strands’ fluid strength; bliss, distress, routineness plait,
Tears multi-colored seeded, love's wisdom grows.
Esplanades calico edge Shangri-la’s gate,
Memoirs in motifs bittersweet and rainbows.
Thruway taken true.., not meandering fate.
Garden, Eden’s stroll sought, golden lit primrose,
‘I love You’ lives in amaranthine splendor;
We know love is actually..Surrender.

I know he will never turn away from me

I place my trust in his gentle hands, praying
Forever with love, feelings and loyalty
I remain dedicated with steadfastness
Without the Lord, I would but dwell in darkness
