I am the kind of writer that has too write when the thought occurs.If I am in the middle of driving down the road,laying in bed or working...I have to start writing while the thought is there so that I don't loose any of that thought.
Mother And Child
Heart to Heart
Hand to Hand
We both Must Learn
To Control Our Demands
Our Needs For Each Other
Will Surely Increase
But A Gentle Hug And Kiss
Will Bring Us Peace
And When You First Fall
And Scrape Your Knee
Please Come And Comfort Me
I know As We grow older
We Will Need Time And Space
But We Must Never Forget
To dry The Tears
From Each Others Face

As I sat in silence,
And watched you both enjoy,
All the precious moments shared,
Between a man and his boy,
I saw the love given ,
And I saw the love received.
I saw you each fulfill,
Each others need.
I hold those moments precious too.
It's through those moments,
I came to know,
How the love of a man,
And his son,
Can grow.

AS I SIT HERE ON THIS SUNLIT MORN
the chipmonks chip as little baby
geese are born
the beatiuful sun rises over the misty
covered fields
that every year gives a hearty yield
of wonderous blossoms that fill our days
with natures bounty lying under our
blue sunlit sky
with streams that trickle ever so gently
by
just kissing natures bounty on its merry
way
saying c'mon and grow tomorrow s on its
way
as i sit here on this sunlit morn
the chipmonks chip as little baby geese
are born

At times I sit and think
What can I leave when I go
I can leave my poems
I can leave my teacups
I can leave my pictures
But I know that
If I have touched your heart
Then I know that I will always be there
And you will take me with you
Everyday
Where ever you go
Even when I am gone
I will be there

The sparkle and the glisten
Will blind you day or night
They're all so very different
With no errors in sight
Covering earths messes
Creating many stresses
That leaves us with lots of highway messes
And one does wonder why
These things should fall from the sky
But just as we are human
We are all different
We have our beauty and our ugliness
And are not always what we seem
And if we look close enough
We may find the beauty in an ugliness
That we would only create in a dream
So when you see the snowflakes fall
Look closely at each individual one and see
They're as much alike and different
With beauty,like you and me

Inside these shower walls,the water trickles Debra N Melfi Copyright ©2002 debra n melfi Tears
And on my body falls
And brings the tears i've held inside
It's then I cry and cry
Releasing all the pain inside
Letting the showers mist wash away my tears
Then no one ever knows how I cried
Or about the pain deep inside
The water droplets,mask my tears
And at this time no one knows
The tears that build and rapidly flow
Down my body but never show
They're hidden by the waters flow
It's only the deep and sobbing cry
That could tell others of the pain inside
Because inside these shower walls
The water droplets hide the tears that fall
True love is a gift from God,
Sent from him above.
He gently places his two hands,
On two deserving hearts.
And blesses them with all his love,
And thats how true love starts.
He gives them first,true friendship,
Then he entwines it with caring love.
He then ties their hearts together,
With loyalty,
And the peace of a soaring dove.
And from that day forward,
The two hearts that were blessed,
Already know how to nuture,
And care for the love,
That God has let them come to know.
Because he first gave them the experience,
To help their true love grow.
And those two hearts now share,
Loves warm,happy glow.

As I walked out the door
When I thought you weren't there anymore
I looked in the sky
And saw the blue in your eyes
As I took a deep breath, of the nights air
I caught the scent of your hair
And I thought I didn't care
But you were there
And when I looked at the tree
Where I fell to my knees
There I took your hand
To be your only man
I never knew the day would come
That I would be one
And I thought I didn't care
But you were there
When the tears rolled down my face
And I thought I didn't care
You were there,You were there

More Than A FriendI have a friend, Debra N. Melfi Copyright ©2002 Debra N Melfi |

It took a tragedy
To touch the heart and soul of man
Not just in America
But across the worlds vast land
With all the countries taking a stand
Hearts together,hand in hand
We stand together as a world
Not an individual land
It took a tragedy
For all to see
Just how precious "OUR" life is
And how strong "WE" can be
When the world stands together
For once the world is "ONE"
And "OUR" voices
Speak the word "WE"
The terriorist gave us "OUR" first victory
The world stands as"ONE"
The world stands as "WE"

I couldn't pick-up the pieces.
Life seemed as though it fell apart.
Because I had a broken heart.
I felt like life had ended.
And I thought I couldn't go on.
And just then I cryed for an angel!
And just then I met you !
And just then my life changed.
The sunshine poured down through,
Those dark clouds I looked up at,
And asked for an angel.
Just then the angel was you.The Heart Dosen't Lie
To fool the heart
The heart dosen't lie
Pretend you don't care
Put your mind elsewhere
Don't even try
The heart dosen't lie
Embedded with love, pain and sorrow
It won't change tommorrow
No tear you shed or breath you sigh
Will ever change what you feel inside
The heart dosen't lie
Once love has been seeded
And taken root
Nothing in the world can rip it out
The heart dosen't lie
For true love is rare and burys deep
It warms our heart making us strong
And making us weak,making us sigh
The heart dosen't lieThe One To Steal My Heart
And your bubbly coo.
Brings my arms to cuddle you.
Your silky baby skin,
And just look at that double chin !
Such tiny toes and a perfect nose.
My love for you must surely show.
Who ever thought,
Right from the start,
That you would be the one,
To steal my heart.
My precious baby boy!Orders To Leave
Remember When
I'd hold your hand And I was gone
I'd Kiss your cheek My knees went week
Remember when
I held you close
I felt your heart beat against mine
And we lost track of time
Remember When
I was yours and you were mine
When we were together
We lit up the room
No one else existed except me and you
Remember whenWith You
Wrapped in your arms,
Strong but tenderly.
To share our problems,
And work them out.
With you I have no doubt,
Tears of sadness soon would cease.
And the love in our hearts,
Would only shed tears,
Of happiness and peace.
So don't be afraid,
To let your feelings show.
My hearts with you,
That I know.Loves Sweet Surrender
That only you possess.
Two hearts entwined,
With loves sweet caress.
Two lips that kiss,
So sweet and tender,
Giving into loves,
Emotional surrender.
Leading to the bodies bliss,
Of loves sweet surrender.Eternity
Deep into my my eyes,
That you will see.
A love that will last an eternity.
Two open arms to hold you tight.
To stop the tears that fall,
Deep in the dark of night.
Two open hands,to hold in yours.
To walk together,
Through lifes endless doors.
My heart thats warm and caring,
Endless love and constant sharing.
To carry you through eternity.
A life shared by you and by me.
And by each others side we will always be.
Here on earth,in heaven, eternity.
How To Appreciate Life
Dear Lord
Heart breaking tears,roll down a face,
Sad so many years.
No money in the pocket,
No food to eat.
The babies cries just make me weak.
No bed to sleep in,
No blanket to keep warm.
The hunger for life,
Is what keeps us strong.
We wrap up in each others bodies at night,
To keep each other warm.
And hopefully awake,
To a brighter morning light.
Dear lord,we have a simple prayer,
Please take us under your wing,
To show you care.
Food,a room,a bed,and a blanket to share.
Thank you lord ,
We always knew you were there.Be There
Place a kiss on my cheek to show you're near.
When I think all is impossible to bare,
Place your hand in mine to show you care.
When troubles are many and life seems unfair,
Smile and say your troubles I'll share.
But most of all when I need a friend,
Just give me a big hug and say,
I'll be there until the end.Deep In The Dark Of Night
Your warm breath
Blows gently across my face
Making eager loves warm embrace
As your smooth skin
Gently passes across mine
The smell of each others scent
Bringing precious moments in time
Bringing emotions high
The sweat on your brow
From heightened desire
Drips upon mine
Fingers wrapped between each others
Grasping ever so tight
As we slip into loves greatest height
Deep in the dark of night
We planted a seed
It started to grow
None to small in size
A great big ball
Right under my nose
Oh dear ! what happen?
I can't see my toes
I went to the doctor
The doctor replied
Don't worry my dear
It will soon disapear
With a beautiful package inside
We waited and worried
And eventually scurried
To the hospitals
Maternity floor
And much to our surprise
We produced,a nine pound-five
Brown eyed baby boy
Thats quite a bundle of joy!

A heart is something special
To be used everyday
And if you use it right
You will never go astray
A heart can be a room
To store your special thoughts
A heart can be a door
That swings both ways
To let you in and out
On not so happy days
The heart can be a treasure chest
To keep your friends you love the best
A heart can be a leaning post
For those who cannot stand
A heart can be a helping hand
For every needy man
A heart can make you happy
A heart can make you sad
Just be sure to use it
For good,not bad
