I discovered the gift for writing a bit after I was baptized at Church. I have been inspired by God. I love to observe the love I have for family and friends and I love nature and good music.

WHAT IS LOVE?

God is the author of love, all love began from up above

Request Love cannot be abolished,

True Love the wiser you are, the more you will cherish.

Be honest with the one, whom you love,

The unseen eyes are forever watching from up above.

You are human and not a character of unclean mind,

Your thoughts are pure, humble and kind.

Into a quiet atmosphere, love has to rest,

So as to dispel infatuation and covetousness.

Take time out to meditate,

Behold many things which only God can create.

No space for idle gesturing,

Love is clean and ever dreaming.

Day by day gives that romantic feeling,

Love is tender, love can cause hurt.

Must be treated with care for all that it is worth.

True Love can never be too much,

The human personality is ever so tempting and too tough.

Appearance is like a ray of sunshine,

It can cause a dispelling darkness as well as loneliness from the mind.

He knows how to heal the broken heart,

Will never change nor think to depart.

True Love is not hasty and easily led to temptation,

Love with patience can build a great nation.

It is as fresh as the dew at dawn,

It will never grow weary as time goes on.

It is in your care that I will never rest,

In order to vision what true love is, What Is Love?

LOVE IS A TREASURE

Love is a treasure most difficult to find,

When true love comes together the feeling is so divine.

It’s more precious than gold, so glorious to behold.

It all depends on you,

We can make our dreams come true.

Love is a treasure; keep my courage ever fresh,

When I am lonely and feeling depressed,

Love is something I cannot hide,

Every day I can feel it deep inside.

At home, I make peace and love from heaven’s flow,

That is where angels of God love to go.

Love is a treasure driving dark shadows away,

You make me behold sunshine on a cloudy day.

I am ever in need of more,

Each moment with you is sweeter than the day before.

The moonlight comes shining in,

Come closer to me and let true love begin.

Love is a treasure that needs much devotion,

Created on that feeling of sweet sensation.

I wake up with you in my arms,

As love and tenderness is going on.

True love will go on forever,

Come let us dream closer to together.

Love is a treasure that makes me happy when I am feeling blue,

That is why I am so addicted to you.

Simply because during winter you keep me warm,

Then caresses me with the magic of your charm.

Make me be yours to keep and to care,

Without good loving, I will never reach anywhere.

GARDEN OF LOVE

All alone as I stood in this beautiful garden,

I heard sweet echoes of a voice calling.

Where are you going, I calmly asked her?

She said I am not sure, but I don’t think I am trespassing.

Could you please tell me what brings you here?

She responds, it is the fragrance from the flowers blowing in the air.

May I ask you what is your name?

Promise me; please don’t let me feel ashamed.

Oh no I won’t, because I am getting to love you just the same.

My name is Rose – Marie Love.

That’s a beautiful name, as my mind wondered if she was sent to me from up above.

May I sit down beside you?

Sure you may as I am lonely and feeling blue.

Why did you choose to come here?

Please come closer to me my dear.

She smiled, then said yes and closed her eyes.

Please swear that you won’t tell me any lies.

Though the sun is up high in the sky,

We are delighted while observing the movement of the lovely butterfly.

Look at those two beautiful birds side by side on the rock,

Of course, God made male and female to live just like that

Did you tell yourself where you were
