ERNESTO CORTAZAR - Just for you - YouTube.flvby happy valentine's day to all

IS NOT LOVE?

Is not love

a child?

It toys

with my heart

Is not love

a puppy?

It plays

around inside

Is not love

a child?

It is

as innocent

as a doe

Is not love

happy?

Its smile

goes through

your heart

Is not love

caring

When

no one

else does?

Is not love

sharing

When

you feel it

all inside?

Is not love

pouring

When

it washes

through

your heart?

Is not love

grand

When

it takes you

to the stars?

Is not love

beautiful

When

I feel

the smile

from God?

Is not love

loving

When

it takes me

to its heart?

A THOUGHT!

If there

is no one there

to hold you

Just reach

for God instead

If there

is no one there

to care for you

Care

for God instead

If there

is no one there

to take your heart

Give it to all

who don't have love.

Dedicated to Leo

One love sick puppy

milk bones won't do

Your Friend a Poeatreeman

The only pain

I cannot feel

Is that pain

that has no love

The only hurt

that really hurts

Is the feelings

I let go

HEART GROWN

WHAT YOU NOURISH IN YOUR HEART

WILL BLOSSOM OUT IN TIME.

A GARDEN OF LOVE

OR THE CARES YOU PUSHED ASIDE.

A SOUL FULL OF WEEDS

WILL DARKEN ANY SPARK.

ONLY GOD'S LOVE

WILL LIGHT ALL OUR HEARTS.

THE PAIN OF LOVE

DOES NOT COME

WITHOUT TEARS.

NOR DOES THE ROSE

WITHOUT THORNS.

FOR BOTH

WILL PEIRCE YOUR HEART

LOVE IS BORN

A TEAR AND A THORN.

LOVE BLOSSOMS

May

the Flowers

of Our Love

Be

as Bright

as the Daisy

Have

the Fragrance

of the Rose

May

it Be

as Soft

as the Petals

as Gentle

as the Rain

as Warm

as the Sun

When

it Falls upon

Our Love

May

it Be

as Lovely

as the Violets

as Deep

as the Blue Sea

To

Never Know

an Ending

In

this Love

We Seed

May

it Always

Be in Blossom

Forever

and a Day

as Tear

Drops Fall

It

Will Rain

on Our Bouquet

To

Bring

Forth Life

Like

a Flower

Opening up

Be as Sweet

as the Honeysuckle

When

it Touches

upon Our Lips

To

Taste

the Sweet Nectar

of Your Kiss .

A Poeatreeman

One Shower

From

The Heart

Will

Pour

Love Through

One

Care

From You

Will Help

Love Grow

One’s

Love

Will Blossom

Through

One

Bouquet

FROM

Both of You.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S

Dedicated To Cupid

For Love is The Aim

Valentine

is just not one day

it is Each Heart ,

Serving Love Every Day.

To All Happy Valentine's

CUPID

Cupid

may have

shot the arrow

Yet

I am the one

who feels the pain

Cupid

may have

left its mark

Yet

without my heart

there is no target

Cupid

may have

come with love

Yet

it is my heart

that brought love in

Cupid

may have

touched the spark

Yet

it is my flame

that lights the arrow.

COURT PLAY

Love Games Took Me all the way

I had no faults in games I played

The Net caught Me and Let Me Win

The Court was Mine To Lose or Win

I stayed in and served well

I Took Love to Match and Win

I Ace Love to make a Point

I Matched its Game and I was in

A Poeatreeman

This Court sometimes is not always Clay

I cannot shape it the way I want

I must Play and Try My Best

I must squeeze out all To Win The Test

Dedication

To All The Love Ever Played

To All The Matches Won By Love

To All The Love Served Both Ways

To You I Say Court Your Love

Keep Your Heart In All Your Play

Love Will Serve You All The Days

A Poet's Note

It Took Love To Win The Set

I Served it out and Matched its Play

Love Took Me All The Way

Now I have a better hand

Not always will it be so well

Yet Love is always a hand

It's how I face the Court to Play

It's Love I Served That Helps My Aim

THE LAST SHOT FIRED

WE ARE STILL

CLUBBING

EACH OTHER,

THE WEAPON IS THE WAR.

WE'VE HUNG

OUR HUMANITY,

NOW ITS LAYING

ON THE FLOOR.

WAITING

FOR THE WORLD

TO PICK IT UP INSTEAD.

MAN IS ITS WORST ENEMY

FOR HE KILLS SELF.

HE FORGES A GUN

EXPECT PEACE TO COME.

HE BATTLES HIMSELF.

THE WAR HAS BEGUN.

THE LAST SHOT FIRED.

WILL END WITH HIM.

NO MAN NO WAR,

PEACE HAS FINALLY COME.

I WISH MAN WAS HERE

TO SEE THIS ONE.

MY FIRST STRUGGLE WAS MY FIRST TRY.

LIFE STRUGGLES

I Struggled first,

Only because Failure

was tugging at me

Success gave me a hand

Then I knew the wisdom

of working hard

Failure was Struggling too,

So I carried Him with me

Now I have one more friend,

Will! I see Him at the end?

I hope Success will carry Him.

A THOUGHT!

The Only Success

is the Failures overtaken

The only Failures

are the steps not taken.

Dedicated to Ha-ly

A Poeatreeman

Success is only won,

When Failure has a Try

One step can reach the end,

No step! will ever Try..

MY FIRST STRUGGLE WAS MY FIRST TRY.

MY FIRST FAILURE WAS WHEN I DID NOT TRY

MY FIRST SUCCESS WHEN FAILURE TOOK ME HIGH.

MY FIRST GOAL WHEN I TOOK THE STEP TO TRY.

I AM THE CHISEL

WHO CARVED

MY OWN LIFE.

I STAND

AS A PORTRAIT.

TO SHOW

WHAT I AM LIKE.

MY FOUNDATION

WAS STONE.

STRONGER

WITH GOD.

I HAD

TO HOLD UP.

LIFE

HAD ITS CRACKS.

MY HEART WAS SOFT

FOR LOVE

TOOK THE BLOWS.

MY CARES WERE HEAVY

I HAD TO CARRY

THE LOAD.

MY STRENGTH

WAS STRONGER

FOR GOD CAME ALONG.

MY WEAKNESS PRETENDING

HE WAS NOT THERE AT ALL.

MY FAITH

IS THE MOUNTAIN

THAT MOVES VERY SLOW.

MY HOPE

IS MY DREAM

I WILL SEE HIM AGAIN.

MY LOVE

WILL STAY WITH HIM

FOR HE IS MY FRIEND.

BEYOND ETERNITY

WILL NOT BE THE END.

LOVE WILL FIND HIM

I WILL BE

WITH HIM AGAIN.

WASHED HIS HANDS.

WILL ALL

GOVERNMENTS TOO ?

WILL MAN

FOLLOW THROUGH ?

WE ASKED GOD

WHY

DOES IT HAPPEN.

WE ASKED THE WORLD

WHY

DO WE LET IT HAPPEN.

WE SHOULD ASK OURSELVES

WHAT IS HAPPENING.

WE SHOULD STAND

FOR WHAT IS RIGHT

NOT LET IT HAPPEN.

WE WILL GET A WORLD

WE DON’T WANT

WHEN WE DO

NOTHING RIGHT.

Poetry speaks but very deeply directly from the heart of any person, in my graduation days I meet a person at college in a seminar arranged by my college, actually that person presented some nice poetry to all of seminar visitors, but I still remember that one poem he told us, I don’t know the name of the poet but I remember that poem. It was actually a romantic poem that expresses true feeling of a person in sincere love.

Roses love sunshine

Violets love dew

I love my angel

And that is you

Truly speaking I think everybody out there in love understands what a poet is trying to say for his/her partner. This poem suits every person in love or a married persons with no age boundaries and this one is for anyone even for your father, mother and for any relation because love has no boundries.

a sour note will only fill you with bitterness. so why play the song. to let sorrows note play along. to hear your soul sing its song. for then you can change its chord. life will show the music sheet. pray god is in it all. than sorrow can truly sing its song.
