Dance of Love

Loves dances around you and I
It's only gotten better over time
Far from tainted,
Lightly brushed your kiss on my cheek,
Your whisper of sweet nothings in my ear
Such a beautiful aura we've painted
Has to be a moment of 'too good to be true'...
I mean ain't it?!
I've never smiled more in all my years
Loving you and letting go of all my fears
Our dance of love hasn't been perfect
Lost of rhythm, cut ins and stepped on toes
But we've always found our way back
To each others souls
With God as lead we'll be just fine
Two lovers intertwined
In this dance of love
That couldn't be more divine
Whether we're doing the tango, ballroom dance, salsa, two stepping or just rocking back and forth
I chose you as my life partner
So would you do me the honors
Take my hand
And let's make this the dance of our lives

Brick Layer

Now I struggled with this poem...It could have went two different ways. But I think I have this version just right. I'm sure there will be a Part 2. Enjoy!


I live my life in school,
So I can have a great career.
Along the way I've picked up another trait
Laying bricks tall and straight.
Starting out I wasn't that good at it
When I allowed someone in
Shortly after it toppled.
But now my brick layers
Resemble the Great Wall of China
At the capacity that I keep stacking
I'm surely gonna build it
Straight up to Heaven
You see this brick wall is to protect
Something logic and intellect can't dissect.
My heart, love, feelings and secrets,
I wanna let you in but I suspect
You don't really want it..
Just interested in
The outside that everyone sees.
And not knowing the great woman in me
Due to trial and error,
I've learned about structure and layers.
How to cover up the weak spots
Keeping the foundation strong
So I can build to the top
And smile through the madness
That others wouldn't understand
After a number of attempted love failures,
I've became a great brick layer.
