[align=center]Lay your weary head
Against my beating heart,
That’s how we’ll stay ahead
And never more to part,
Hush now my Love - and sleep!
Let cares drift with the night
That’s long, and dark, and deep -
The morning will bring light.
Pain that you have endured
will surely drift away,
Our future is secured -
Our love will find the way.[/align]

What talent we have here. I doubt I could write anything as good as that.

WOW. Orchidea you certainly was in love.

Its funny how we all have different ways and styles of writing.

I wrote his one after taking my granddaughter to school about nine years ago.
The little lad used to talk to me quite freely and this is the tale as told me.

My Brother

My mums had a baby, a playmate for me
She said that she found him under a tree.
I don’t like him when he’s crying and is always wet
But I suppose at the time it was all she could get.

He’s small at the moment and does nothing but yell
And sometimes he burps and makes a bad smell,
I’ll teach him nursery rhymes and “Winnie the Pooh”
And how to use the toilet and not wee in his shoe.

We will draw lots of pictures and have lots of fun
And we will play in the paddling pool out in the sun.
I WILL look after him, I will make sure of that
And we will share my books about Postman Pat

We will play at “Bob the Builder” and build a wall
I will teach him his ABC and watch him grow tall
I will tell him about the animals that live in the Zoo
In fact I will tell him everything he can and can’t do

I’ll show him how to eat and how to drink out of a cup
Though I am only just turned six I feel I’m quite grown-up.

That is so cute!! A little 6 year old girl in school is expecting a baby brother, so I will have to tell her how a lady called Maisie wrote this poem that will be just like her! She will love it!

Another of mine, and yes, I was so very in love when written.........

[align=center]Just touch me once again Love
The way you did before,
Then cast your eyes upon me
So I may know for sure,
Don’t question what I’m thinking
For you should understand -
When my thoughts you can read Love
It means we’re hand in hand.
Does your heart ache as mine does
When miles between us spread?
Then I am satisfied Love,
With you I lay my head -
I know you love me.[/align]

You really know how to write love poems Orchidea.

They are lovely.

Oh yes, these are great Orchidea - I am amazed at all the talented members we have on here. So creative and clever.
