Silly Love Poems Month Wrap Up: "I Will" - The Beatles

Silly Love Poem: Narcissistic martyrdom

Narcissistic martyrdom -
Pettiness reigns.
Impetuous manipulation -
Its melodramatic enforcer.
Jealousy seeps in -
Possessive and scheming;
Ambivalent and overzealous.
Advancing -
The loneliness,
of the shackles of control.
Void -
the freedom of intimacy.

Silly Love Poem: Hopeless romantics

Hopeless romantics -
some say  fools,
Easily taken in,
by flirtatious misrule.


Head in the clouds 
Cupid's backlight.
A Broadway production -
Violins and candlelight.


Moonlight waltzing:
Draped in silk gazebo,
adorned by cherry trees -
A lady and her fellow.


Midnight rendezvous,
riverside stroll.
Holding hands -
Two souls made whole.

Silly Love Poem: Spellbound and dreaming

Spellbound and dreaming -
Of hypnotizing eyes,
that bedazzle,
like celestial bodies
in a midnight sky.
With the luster
of pearls,
in the bewitching light
of a full moon.
Piercing;
Enchanting;
Mesmerizing.

Silly Love Poem: Silver screen features

Silver screen features,
of a classic
celluloid princess.
A modern day
Audrey Hepburn,
Myrna Loy or Ruby Keeler -
Grace and class.
Playful and spontaneous;
Gentle yet fortified;
Compassionate and kind.
A tender soul -
Soulful tears of sincerity:
Glistening eyes flutter,
as her bottom lip
quivers,
melting
my guarded heart.
Defenses down,
I let her in.
Mutual security:
A bond of friendship-
Forged in trust.

Silly Love Poem: The heart of a woman - Archive

The heart of a woman
is a sacred place
filled with compassion and charity.
Her eyes,
are full of tender mercies.
The hands,
nurture and heal a broken heart.
Her smile,
radiate the happiness and joy
found in the Savior's love.

Silly Love Poem: Anytime, anywhere - Archive

Anytime, anywhere:

Call and I'll be there.

In the middle of the night:

When a nightmare

makes you scream.

Or when some silly boy,

has broken your heart;

Picking up the pieces -

Together.

Don’t hesitate to call,

when you’re feeling

sad and lonely,

struggling to smile.

When I’m not around,

do not despair,

for in your heart,

I will always be near -

Anytime, anywhere.

Silly Love Poem: A simple man

A simple man
with a simple life -
Three kids and a wife.
Long past head games
and turnstile romance.
Settled down -
Living the dream;
Cherishing the moments.
Mundane and ordinary -
Blessedly extraordinary.
True married bliss -
And that's everything.

Silly Love Poem: Grace

Grace -
Reflecting regality.
Purity -
Reflecting virtue.
Compassion - 
Reflecting divinity.
Understanding -
Reflecting mercy.
Boldness -
Reflecting conviction.
Confidence -
Reflecting humility.

Silly Love Poem: Across the room

Across the room -
Pulling me in;
Warm and inviting.
Wrapped in your arms -
A squeeze and a snuggle.
Becoming one -
Embraced in ecstasy.
I'm glad you're here
holding me.
Head pillowed on my chest
listening to my heart race -
Breathless.

Silly Love Poem: I sit here day after day - Archive

I sit here day after day
writing silly love poems.
They start off much the same way:
How I couldn't
live another day -
Without her;
And if I was her knight in shining armor
I would take her to my castle far away.
Yet three little words 
matter most -
I love you
is all that needs to be said.
Simple and direct;
Sincere and fundamental.

Silly Love Poem: Love

Love:
Allusive;
Hesitant,
Fickle embrace.
Wandering;
Wondering.
Left to chance -
Falls.
Giving up;
Giving in.

Silly Love Poem: Restless

Restless -

Tossing and turning.

I look out the window

and watch the rain.

She haunts my thoughts -

I picture her.

I'm wide awake -

Yet dreaming.

Silly Love Poem: So far away

So far away -

Wishing you were here

to have all to myself.

But my desire is selfish -

For such talent and ability

cannot be contained,

imprisoned or limited,

but innately flourishes.

Silly Love Poem: Dear God - Archive

Dear God,

I thought I would pray

and let you know my sweetheart

is pretty OK.

Thank you for sending her down to earth.

I bet it was pretty hard to let her go -

I know you two were very close.

I see your reflection in her eyes.

I love her a lot

as I know you do too.

I’ll take care of her

and bring her home safely to you.

It sure was nice of you

to bring us together.

She is a wonderful friend

and will be forever.

Love, Your son.

Silly Love Poem: She said hello

She said hello -
in a voice,
soft and gentle.
Playful conversation;
Flirtatious laughter .
She teases,
"I'll break your heart."
Rolling my eyes,
"Don't even start."
Sharing a log,
draped by a quilt.
Hear head resting
on my shoulder
as the sun rises.

Silly Love Poems Month Valentines Day Intermission: "My Valentine" - Paul McCartney

Another song by Mr. McCartney to help celebrate Valentines Day. Hope you enjoyed yours.

Silly Love Poem: I wish I knew - Archive

I wish I knew,
all her dreams and aspirations,
that I might help,
make them come true.
Assisting to unlock,
the strength and beauty,
she has inside.
Letting her know,
what a blessing,
she is in my life.

Silly Love Poem: It's hard to explain - Archive

It's hard to explain;

Can’t put it into words,

the way she makes me feel,

when I talk to her.

Like the safety a child knows -

In his mother’s arms.

Or the happiness a warm smile brings -

From a benevolent stranger.

How I long to hear her voice,

to let her know the sweet serenity,

her heart has shared with mine.

Silly Love Poem: Sophia Sublime

Sophia Sublime,

whose crackling eyes stop time,

May I inquire

where they got their fire?

Like a torrent of sunlight they explode

launching a hundred tales to be told;

In vivid waterfalls of light -

A blinding sight.

Auburn locks

to which silly boys do flock;

Adorned with colorful ribbons and bows;

Down cascading curls they flow.

Framing the soft curves of your face -

Smooth and inviting features they embrace.

A gleeming smile that melts;

Dreams of silky lips being felt.

An ethereal dance with mischievous flashes

hidden by the flutter of your butterfly lashes.

A subtle and smooth turn of the shoulder

makes your suitor much bolder.

Inviting yet dismissive

making him starry eyed and submissive.

Engulfed in a blissful trance;

The hope of a stolen chance.

Silly Love Poem: Sister Charity - Archive

Sister Charity -

Pondering her face.

Engulfed,

in the radiance,

of her countenance.

Parting the veil;

Testifying,

of a daughter -

true and faithful.

Of a brother,

who redeemed all -

if we but follow him.

Silly Love Poem: Piercing eyes - Archive

Piercing eyes,

cut through my heart,

into my soul,

refusing to let go.

Nervously dreaming,

of a captured moment,

not so far away.

When I’ll stop runnin’,

and let you in.

Silly Love Poem: Just one kiss - Archive

Just one kiss.

Is that too much to ask?

Can't contract

a fatal disease.

It might be fun -

Or so I’ve heard.

Oh!

Wont you kiss me please?

My lips are lonely,

in want of a friend,

And he thinks yours

are just what he needs.

Silly Love Poem: Taken much too early

Taken much too early,

but in my heart -

You've never left.

As I close my eyes,

visions come.

I can almost hear

the joyous sounds of laughter.

I see you,

light and breezy,

in a summer dress.

Twirling -

Floating above the ground.

Sensing the unconditional love

of a warm embrace.

An ephemeral parting,

but we'll be together again -

Someday.

Gazing,

into each others eyes.

Knowing,

the love we share -

Never waned.

For we are eternally

a part of one another.

Silly Love Poem: My Friend

My friend,

she's a charmer.

A heart of gold;

The face of an saint;

Sparkling eyes;

A beguiling smile;

That wrap me

around her little finger.

Silly Love Poem: I want so much more - Archive

I want so much more

than love and affection

and someone to call my own.

A heart that is lonely,

Hopes -

For that which will make it whole.

So much more -

Than a kind gesture

or a playful grin -

But a love that is pure.

Silly Love Poem: Seeing the beauty - Archive

Seeing the beauty;

Knowing the woman -

She is.

Strong and unwavering;

The rest of all tomorrows,

blessed by the presence,

of an angel -

Sent down to earth.

Silly Love Poem: Hand in hand - Archive

Hand in hand,

we walk together.

Blessed -

To have each other.

The peace and comfort

that it brings,

makes us forever grateful -

For a friend

and love so dear.

Silly Love Poem: Evening chill rush

Evening chill rush;

Silent serenity.

Sealing embrace.

Stars blanket the heavens.

A precious moment;

A celestial gift.

Enchanted union;

Alchemy of devotion.

Silly Love Poem: A breathless spark

A breathless spark,

as quivering lips touch.

Committed,

to loving each other -

Forever and always.

Hearts abounding in love:

For what is at this moment -

And the infinite steps,

taken along the way -

Together.

Silly Love Poem: Though you feel alone - Archive

Though you feel alone,

someone out there

loves you,

as much as you will love him.

Someday,

your paths will cross -

When you least expect it.

The pain and heartache,

of too many days and nights

spent alone -

Will dissipate;

Replaced,

by the warmth and security

of companionship.
