Love Poems Verses Quotes

A love for eternity
(A love made in heaven)
Is what I'm sure we've got
Because, not only do I know I love you,
I also know I'll never not

Happy Birthday, sweetheart

You have been a wonderful wife/girlfriend/partner
Of that there is no doubt
So Happy (Birthday) (Anniversary)
Today, I say... nay... shout !

If I could give you the stars
I'd gather them inside my heart
I'd wrap them in love
And brighten your day
...with starlight

This is a love poem
What I have written
Cos with all consuming love
I've been smitten

And when I say smitten
I mean everywhere
There's one bit, particularly smit
But let's not go down there

I say this joyously
Ecstatically, euphorically and such
Cos I love you, verily
Verily, verily much

I've told everyone I love you
There's no one I didn't tell
Why, I even told the vicar
And he toll'd the bell

William Shakespeare wrote sonnetly
"Love is as a fever, longing still"
I think he's right
I've never felt so ill

Cos I'm o'er brimming with love's fever
Yet all atingle, aroused, excited
And as to the state of me troth
It's well and truly plighted

I've come over all funny
But that's your effect on me
It's cos I love you more than....

...a dog loves a tree
...a lumberjack loves a cucumber snack
...a fish loves staying wet
.... Romeo loved Juliet
...an aardvark loves ants
I've a stirring in me...
...mind

For the right words, sentiments
I'm grasping, groping
This poem could go on forever
Like us I'm hoping

Jon Bratton 2007

God made the angels
And sent them from heaven above
He made lots of different angels
And sent them here with love 

But he made one special angel
And kept her on one side
And every time he looked at her
His heart filled up with pride.

Because she was so special
He had to give her life
So she was born into this world
And grew up to become my wife 

Heaven’s very best angel
That was sent from heaven above
Is the very same best angel
I call my wife, and love

I will always love you,
You’ll forever be mine
Then our spirits will be together in love
Till the end of time

From Valentine Pages
This poem is from the internet and may be attributed to the famous "Author Unknown". It is one of many variations based on the phrase "to love is to share". It appears in the Bible and in many different poems. For more on this, see here

To love is to share, the good and the bad,
The joy and the sorrow, glad days and sad
To love is to give, and to keep on giving
To please and to pamper, loving and living
To love is to forgive, failings large or small
And then to forget them, once and for all
To love is to say "I truly love you"
And by this (card) (SMS) (text) (letter) (Facebook message)...
...that's what I hereby do

© V4C

There's a special place within my heart
That only you can fill.
For you had my love right from the start
And I know you always will.

© V4C

I love you, but don't deserve you
I'd die, if you up and went
Henceforth, I'll try to make your highs, higher
And your lows, less fre quent.

I love you dearly

This lovely love poem is actually the lyrics to Adele's song
Make You Feel My Love

You could use it all, or adapt it

Watch her sing it

When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no-one there to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love

I know you haven't made your mind up yet
But I would never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
No doubt in my mind where you belong

I'd go hungry. I'd go black and blue
And I'd go crawling down the avenue
You Know there's nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging on the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing like me yet

I could make you happy
Make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love,
To make you feel my love

Adele

More Love Poems Verses Quotes

It's not difficult to make a woman happy
A man only needs to be all of these
A friend, companion and lover
And a door mat, determined to please

He must behave like her brother and father,
Be a one-man decorating crew
Not to mention electrician, carpenter, plumber and mechanic
Oh, and killer of spiders, too

He needs to be a good listener
And always generous, never mean
He needs to be a healer and a psychologist
And it helps a lot, if he's clean

He needs to be warm and very attentive
Creative, tender and sympathetic
He should be intelligent and funny
And it's a bonus if he's also athletic

He should have boatloads of understanding
Be strong while at the same time, soften
He should also be very passionate
But really, not all that often

He should be ambitious and very capable
Courageous, compassionate, determined and true
Dependable, and a docile pack horse
Whenever there's shopping to do

He should pay her compliments and attention
Expecting little or nothing in return
He should be rich enough to enable her
To have lots of money to burn

He mustn't forget birthdays or anniversaries
Or any arrangements she makes
He must give her lots of time, space and shoes
And whatever else it takes

Let's consider the reverse situation
There's only two things on the list to choose
How can a woman make a man happy?
Be naked
Have booze

(So my darling (Angela)
I'm sooo in love with you
I'll do the whole of list 1
If you'll do the whole of list 2)

(So, my darling (Timothy)
I love you but don't get me wrong
While I love everything on the first list
The second one's two items too long)

Humorous Love Poems

Hand on hot stove for a minute seems like an hour.
Sit with pretty girl for an hour seems like a minute.
That's relativity
It's true Albert, innit?

© V4C

More than a catbird hates a cat,
Or a criminal hates a clue,
Or the Axis hates the United States,
That's how much I love you.

I love you more than a duck can swim,
And more than a grapefruit squirts,
I love you more than a gin rummy is a bore,
And more than a toothache hurts.

As a shipwrecked sailor hates the sea,
Or a juggler hates a shove,
As a hostess detests unexpected guests,
That's how much you I love.

I love you more than a wasp can sting,
And more than the subway jerks,
I love you as much as a beggar needs a crutch,
And more than a hangnail irks.

I swear to you by the stars above,
And below, if such there be,
As the High Court loathes perjurious oathes,
That's how you're loved by me.

How do I measure

Missed You

I missed you so much
I really was hurting
I wasn't shedding tears
But my eyes kept squirting

I missed you so much
But not completely
Just from the top of my head
Down to my feetly

I missed you so much
My heart was breaking
I did that much missing
My misser was aching

I missed you so much
But not anymore
Welcome Home, Darling
You're the one I adore

Love Poems Verses Quotes

When I'm feeling sad and blue,
I need someone to help me through,

To make me laugh, to make me glad
To comfort me when I'm feeling sad.

To help dry away my tears,
To help me overcome my fears.

A person who'll be standing strong,
When everything is going wrong.

In short, I need to be loved with ardour
I need you, my Knight

Love Poems Verses Quotes

Angel of the North

Proudly standing, all alone
The man of steel, heart of stone
Performing daily duties, rain or fair
Learning secrets that he will not share
Life's cries echo round his steely ears
He sheds no tears
For he is just the angel man

He sees the wild boy of the street
Bedding down about his feet
Observes through eyes that are quite blind
The rapid way the boy declined
And sees the boy, at 24, grown old
But he stays cold
For he is just the angel man

Gazing up at our statue
You said you had met someone new
Leave me now, and see me plead
Prick my finger, see me bleed
I have feelings... and a heart that's breaking
...Aching
For I am not a man of steel

He has seen love build and grow
Then dissolve like thawing snow
Standing there, unrelentlessly
Frozen secrets, guarded jealously
There's a tear on his cheek through watching pain
Or is it rain?
Falling on the angel man

Jon Bratton c 1973 (Adapted 2004)

10 things I hate about you

I hate the way you talk to me,
and the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car,
I hate it when you stare.
I hate your big dumb combat boots
and the way you read my mind.
I hate you so much it makes me sick,
it even makes me rhyme.
I hate the way youre always right,
I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh,
even worse when you make me cry.
I hate it when youre not around,
and the fact that you didnt call.
But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you,
not even close
not even a little bit
not even at all.

MY JOURNEY IN SEARCH OF LOVE

I began my journey in search of true love
And looked to the sky, for strength from above
If love is so great, why is it hard to find
I cannot see it, am I just blind.

What is true love, does it really exist
Is it a feeling, a thought or an abyss
Where is true love, is it lost in the mist
Is it in my mind, my heart or behind my first kiss.

Why do hearts hurt if love is so pure
Many are broken and seeking a cure
What is true love, is it big or small
They say 'It's better to have loved, than not at all'

Where can I find it, where does one look
In nature, in others, or a romantic book
'It comes from within', that is what they say
Do I search in my soul or continue to pray.

My journey now over, I will share what I found
True love is within us and holds no bounds
It is a beautiful feeling, within one’s soul
It can be shared with others and make you whole.

From this feeling of love there is so much to gain
If it is true love you will never feel pain
It will not deceive you, or devalue your worth
An abundance of this love can bring peace on earth.

This feeling of love can be found nowhere else
No glamour, no glitter or extreme wealth
This materialistic world to which we aspire
Cannot give us the true love our hearts desire.

As I close my eyes and relax my mind
I discover inner feelings deep down inside
Peace, happiness and harmony too
True love exists there within all of you.

Now that I have found it, I will never let it go
I shall cherish these feelings deep in my soul
No one can destroy it, it is here forever
This true love of mine will leave me never.

Valentine/Anniversary/Love/Birthday Poem to Spouse/Partner
by Jon Bratton
(UK)
‘Neath an apple tree, a kiss seemed right
This apple fell between us and we both took a bite
It was clearly a sign that love was in the air.
As a result of this apple we became a pair.

The apple was there to plant its seed
It was love at first bite, we both agreed
A nibble was good but we wanted more
Ever since that night it's been love to the core

Precious Wife Poem
by David Cohn
(Wichita Falls Texas)

The most precious thing in this world to me
is not something you'd hide or lock up with a key
its some proof of his love
its a gift from above,
not of silver or gold,
but from the promises he told.
As he saw that I was incomplete,
he made for me a help meet,
he looked the heavens over high and low
and told an angel she must go.
Adam was made from mud and sod
by the hand of our loving God,
he took from his rib as he slept
and made this gift, so through life she would help.
All these things he did for me
so that I could become We.
And I promise to you all the days of my life,
I ll love and cherish you, my precious wife.

My Love-Poem
by Francisco J. Saenz
(San Antonio, Texas, USA)

It is said that when one truly loves,
one must also suffer.
If that is true,
then the love I feel for you
cannot be false.
I would like to be able to forget you,
and erase you from my memory.
To accomplish that,
I would have to tear out the heart
that in my soul beats only for you!
My entire life,
I will await your return.
It doesn't matter how much time passes,
I will wait for you.
Maybe one day
when time has painted your hair white,
and slowed your step,
you'll think of me.
If you remember how much I promised
to love you and wait for you,
if you feel that
you still love me
look for me.
For here you will find an old man
who although time has stolen his youth
and has put wrinkles on his face
still waits for you,
and still loves you.
Just as much as the day we met.

Love Poems Verses Quotes

my love for you
by Shepard Melusi Ndlovu
(south africa;gauteng;johannesburg;)

everything around me can change but my feelings for you will never change.

Everyday i feel i should tell you how i feel.
i want to say i love you ,
but i don't know what Love is.
baby girl you complete me ,
you feel the empty spaces in my heart.
when i'm around you my mind shuts down,
for the feelings i have for you can't be described by words.
me without you is like a bird with one wing,
flying is impossible
and so is the description of my feeling for you.
if people say its unreal i wont believe them,
but if they say its madness i will believe them for i am madly in love with you.

A Poem for my boyfriend

I don't have much money to buy you a present,
But hopefully this will do,
So you know how much you are thought about,
And how much I love you too.

You're in my thoughts when you are not here,
But I don't have to wait for long,
For you to come home and give me a cuddle,
Coz in your arms is where I belong.

Poem to my Husband on our Anniversary
by Gemma Cordle
(Derbyshire)
An Anniversary poem for my husband. With such a busy life now we have 2 children I don't always make the time to tell him how much he means to me and how proud I am of the life we have created together.

Love bought us together
As Husband and Wife
And on this day I gained
A Best Friend for Life

I don't tell you enough
What you mean to me
But trust me when I say
We were meant to be

And what you don't hear
And what you don't see
Is that I thank God each night
That you picked me

With our family now complete
I've never been so content
When they talk about happiness
This is what they meant

I love you...
by Becky Sue Zygai

I'm not that great at this,
But I'll give it a go
To tell you how much you mean to me
For you I will give it all
Since the day we first meet,
I knew it was love
I remember it like it was yesterday
An inner peace surrounds me
When you're around
I want you to know?
That 'I love you with all my heart'
Something impossible to describe
You're the first thing I think of
Each morning when I rise
You're the last thing I think of
Each night when I close my eyes
I will always keep your name in my heart
My life has so much meaning now
All because of you
My love for you runs deeper than the ocean
And higher than the sky
Every time I think of something sad
I replace the thought with you
When I'm wrapped up in your arms
I feel safer than ever before
Without you, there is no me
I never knew I could love someone as much as I Love you
I want you to know how much you meant to me
But I'll never get it right
I'll spend the rest of my life
Trying to show you how much you mean to me
Every breath I take is meant for you
You're the sun that shines
My favorite part of the day is talking to you
Every though of you is wonderful
I awake each day with a smile
Knowing I'm with you
The joy you bring
To my life everyday
Is unexplainable
I'm thinking of you every second
Of every day I live
You're the beat of my heart
You're the reason I live
I can't believe the pressure
That your love brings out in me
When I'm with you my smile is always a mile long
You're what I've been waiting for my whole life
My heart it skips a beat
Just thinking of you
You make me feel special, new, and many more
You make me feel more loved
Than ever before
Happier than I've ever dreamed of being
You are my dream come true
With you is where I want to be
Because you love me for me
You make my life feel pure
I love you more than you will ever know
I'll always be there for you
Till the day I die
I'll do anything just for you
I didn't know I could love
Anything as much as I love you
So, I'm giving all I have to give
To you. I give you my heart
So please hold these nine words true
'Forever and Always,
I will love you for you'

Love Poem for Husband
by Tina Burton
(UK)
This was written for my husband one year for Valentine's Day

Ties that Bind

There’s an invisible thread binding me to you,
Which goes straight from heart to heart,
An invisible cord tying you to me
That nothing and no-one can e’er break apart.

Though it cannot be seen, it’ll always be there,
Getting stronger with each coming day;
Like the roots of a tree spreading out through the earth
And held firm like an anchor in the ocean’s rough sway.

It’ll even be there when we exit this life
And are resting in heaven above,
For this unbreakable line linking us to each other
My darling, is made out of love.

The little things in life
by kathleen gallagher
(Bolton)
My poem is about true love and growing old together and all the little things that show we love and care.

Ill be with you until the end of our lives,
when we're old and grey and covered in hives,

we'll share a cup for our dentures,
and go on day out adventures,

holding hands in the street,
rubbing talc on each other's feet,

we'll count each other's varicose veins,
then we'll go for a walk,
with our matching zimmer frames,

oh what a life it will be,
the things that make us happy,
are what make you and me.

How We Met (Thank You IKEA!)
by By Mary Lansdown
(Southampton, England)

This poem tells the story of how my twin sister and I travelled over 70 miles to Bristol to visit their IKEA store, as we did not have one in Southampton at that time. I didn't end up going to IKEA however as I met my future husband, and we spent the weekend getting to know each other instead.....

I dragged myself round local shops
to find a coffee table
but seeing something that I liked
I really wasn't able

So I phoned my sister Angie
said I'd had a great idea
we should travel up to Bristol
and buy one from IKEA

We booked for the whole weekend
so our first stop was the pub
then we checked into our hotel
and headed to a club!

And dancing there all by himself
(that much I do recall)
was a comely pert West Country lad
who said his name was Paul

Now ever since that fateful night
you've never left my side
and when we gave each other rings
I became your loving bride

But even though we're happily married
something's missing still I fear
for there's still no coffee table
Baby, take me to IKEA!

You are a very sophisticated woman with a worldly view of life

We understand what its like to love, no one could take your place.
