Acies Poems 2

The Ravishes Of Time

The old man took out his worn wallet

inside he found memories of time past
on faded and cracked pictures he saved
of his wife and a love that will forever last

When they were young and she was so beautiful

time seemed to be more than they would need
but the ravishes of time has taken her away
tears well in his eyes and his heart does bleed

Thinking of the past and the love they once shared

the old man slowly brushes away a tear he has shed
whats happened to the time we have spent on this earth
he mumbled not wanting to believe his love could be dead

the old man has faced a fate that will be for us some day

don't think you can escape what time will bring to you
make sure you tell your love every day just how you feel
hold her in your arms and love her, you will have memories too

Spirit Captured
by sheila lynn

Time has stolen me away

It's dark and lonely in this place
I wait so anxiously to get
A quick look at my lovers face

As he opens up his wallet

To take a peek inside
He picks me up and takes a look
With reverance and pride

I see his tears come falling down

He hugs my image to his chest
And sees my beauty pictured there
Was when I looked my very best

We were surprised when I passed on

He never will recover from
The shock that we don't live forever
It's sad to see what he's become

But I smile a little wider

When he opens up to see
These pictures in his wallet
For I know he misses me

Pretty soon we'll be together

Two pictures in our daughters book
So happy when she opens up
This photo album to take a look

The Old Man Goes Away

The old man sees his wallet no more

They came to carry him away today
he was clutching her picture to his chest
they said they found him this way

He now has gone to meet her up there

to walk again with his beautiful wife
To be with her again so happy you see
they now know a eternally happy life

The pictures he had of her in his wallet

will be forever lost in a darkness of a box
to be lost and gone without any fond memories
for memories you know never have any locks

Those of us that knew him will cry a tear or two

and remember him as such a kind loving man
who always set such a fine example of how to live
follow in his footsteps be just like him if you can

Our Picnic

The gentle breezes wafted that day

along the small brook we had found
She had brought us a picnic basket
and we made a table on the ground

The birds there all were singing

with so much happiness we saw there
so much in love we were that day
with never a single worry or a care

we will never forget that bright day

it was that day that real love started
we knew that from that day we were one
so very much in love never to be parted

today we live along that lovely brook

in our home with so much love and trust
so happy we are together with our twins
so much pride my chest will surely bust

How great it was to find this place

but so much greater it was you I found
My mind will forever go back in time, when
my lovely lady made the picnic on the ground

Our Log House

I built it along the lovely brook

with logs sawn for the senic land
I cut and fitted each log there
with pleasure I did it by my hand

With times so very hard at first

but our undying love did prevail
so hard we worked on our log home
it was the best one in that dale

Times with abundance did arrive

our hearts were filled with joy
for just one year after we moved in
came twins, a pretty girl, and a boy

Today our home is filled with smiles

for us there can't ever be a frown
with life always so filled with happiness
our love is always up and never down

Our grandchildren come to see us now

and oh how they love our log home
yes it is our little piece of heaven
on our land where we are free to roam

Our Precious Moments

The precious moments that we share

will be always etched in my memory
our thoughts, our hopes, our prayers
will be ever locked there eternally

The beautiful thoughts we evolve

makes our hearts beat so fast
always striving for a better life
and the way for our love to last

Always hoping for for that fine day

when we can be together forever
knowing when that day comes our way
our love could leaves us, no never

Our prayers will be that you and me

will find the true happiness we seek
we will live the life we want so much
in our beautiful home along the creek

So now you see why our time is so precious

every minute to be used with loving care
we know the wonderful love will always be
in the hearts of this ever loving pair

Goofy Golf

I sat it on a silly wood peg

and it looked right back at me
I got so teed when I hit that ball
I guess thats why its called a tee

Lay there and look at me white ball

you know I can wallop your white hide
I know if I really crank it up enough
I'll give this ball a long, long ride

Now look at what this thing I've done

I know now I have made a big mistake
I swung much too hard at that damn ball
And hit it in the middle of the lake

They told me to keep my eye on the ball

I was never to worry where it would go
but how am I going to watch that ball
because where it went, I'll never know

So now little ball you got the best of me

I know I am no good and I like to brag
So who beside me will ever know how I did
you are gonna be burried deep inside the bag

Wrapped Up With You

To have you hold me so tight

is like a perfect dream to me
The way you make me feel today
this love in my heart will ever be

I love the wonderful care you give

and I want to return it my dear too
to make each other safe from all harm
will be my greatest happiness for you

Never a struggle will you ever find

to ever leave you my sweet lady dear
The happiness I have with you right now
Makes life without you too much to bear

To hold me to your lovely breast

and to have me always by your side
will always make this heart beat
so tenderly there's nothing to decide

We will always stay close and never part

Our sweet love we will forever share
My love for you will go on eterenally
In our world where we make a beautiful pair

Tell Her

Our days are now so much better

all our memories are delightful
To think I almost let you go
these thoughts are oh so frightful

The heart does play tricks on us

Never knowing which way to go
Should I tell her every day
of my love or does she really know

take her love not for granted

Tell her every day how you feel
let her know for sure without doubt
tell her every day your love is real

Tonight my love, to you I will say

you are the only one that I love
the wonderful life we now have
was given to us from the MAN up above

If

If my heart belonged to you

would you handle it with care
would you love and cherish it
would we be the ideal pair

If my love for you was forever

never to be lost, or to stray
would you always want me darling
could I know that you will stay

If we could always be together

never worry that we might part
could you forever love just me
and hold me deep within your heart

If we really want it to happen

there are things for us to know
love me for who I am my darling
let our love flouish, let it grow

If our lives can be lived as one

and surely life will let that be
our lives will be of contentment
like heaven on earth for you and me

In Love With A Lady

I see her face in its serene glory

More beautiful than any ever seen
this wondrous lady who I call mine
has features so bright and clean

I know I will forever love her

returning my love she will do
come seek this utopia my love
ever will our love be so true

never look behind us my love

Always look for fantasies anew
keep our fires burning brightly
my life to be lived with only you

we will ever find much happiness

nothing will ever deter us you see
happiness will be eternally waiting
ever in love my sweet darling and me

A Rare Flower

A rare flower that is so stunningly beautiful

One who should be shown for all the world to see
Sometimes, I regret that as a mortal man in love
I try to hide her beauty and save it all for me

I know I am in love with this prim and proper lass

for me to smother her and keep her out of sight
is so very foolish and so selfesh out of me you see
If I lose her love it'll serve this foolish man right

I pray this never happens and that we will stay together

knowing the sweet tender caresses we share almost every day
It is like heaven every time I kiss and hug her so sweetly
How can I tell her what I am thinking and have her to stay

A vow I will make to you this day my sweet and lovely flower

that forever and even some more my heart will ever be with you
No more petty thoughts and stupid jealousies will I have my love
Please believe me when I tell you this, every word is oh so true

Fools

I feel her presence in the room

is it a ghost or just a dream
the nights are so lonely now
the silence makes me scream

Long ago when things were fine

I just knew our love would last
but things were said just for spite
our sweet love is a thing of the past

Why do fools like us fall in love

when we always want our own way
we do things we know are all wrong
we don't worry what we have to pay

So alone in this lonely room I am

still dreaming of what we once had
with the dream of her in my heart
please GOD don't let her be as sad

My Heart

The heart that beats for you

Is beating within my chest
knowing how much I love you
knowing honey, you are the best

This heart could beat only for you

no one will ever take your place
no love will I have for others
only you sweetheart can win that race

Yes time must pass as it has before

and ever more I shall love just you
every day to greet you with a kiss
and love you the whole day through

My heart will love you sweet lady

and I hope your heart is just for me
together down lifes highway we go
a happier couple you will never see

Broken Hearts

A broken heart was all he had

as he walked out that open door
sensing he would never return
knowing that his love was never more

Time was when he held his head up high

thinking with this life I have it made
never thinking of the life to come
when all his love of her began to fade

The days he walked by my house alone

I wonder if he could still walk tall
would he be the same cheerful sweet man
or the shell of a man who lost it all

These things we will never know because

last night they found him there in his bed
he had a letter she had written him long ago
cluched to his chest as he was lying there dead

No Love At Home

Time has eroded the love between us

it seems it was slowly at the start
but little things kept gnawing at us
until there was no feelings in the heart

Why did it have to happen, who is to blame

perhaps the feelings of love were not enough
without genuine love from the very start
trying to build a lasting relationship is rough

I know now it should have never happened anyway

many times poor choices I have made just like this
without any feelings of love for her in my life
I have stayed here, tied down from a life I miss

Knowing I could be oh so happy with the one I love

But knowing she is tied to a life she clings to
why do we have to suffer through all the pain now
why can't I have a life of true love just me and you

Walking

walking down the old wooded trail

quite cold it was that winter day
I saw this old wrinkled funny man
step across the path blocking my way

Hello my Sir I then softly said to him

eying me with jandiced eyes he did say
what are you doing in my domain thief
get out get out and forever stay away

But mister I certainly mean you no harm

snorting loudly he looked me up and down
well now I guess you aren't a real threat
still never smiling on his face is a frown

I guess I'll tell you who I am he then said

I am the old wish maker and I will give to you
Three wishes to be granted to you this very day
just tell me what your heart desires I'll give it to you

Thinking over what he had said I knew what I had to say

Give to my love first her health to live a long time too
and I would like next for her to have wealth, riches untold
Finally I want only happiness for the my lady tried and true

He looked at me with a sly grin and with his gruff voice he did say

ye are a fool I gave you three wishes and you gave them away
you left nothing for your self only to some one you think you love
walking slowly back down the old trail his words in my mind did play

every evening now I can see an old man on the hillside gleefully playing

and I would swear the lady I once thought someday would become my wife
is romping happily along side the old man called the wishmaker man
who took all my earthly wishes and now I wish he would take my life

The Lady That I Love

Here is to the lady that I love

may her life be always a sweet one
filled with all good things for her
and may every day be filled with fun

I know how I will ever love her

wanting to always be with my love
chasing dreams always with her
knowing our lifes fit like a glove

I have ask myself, do I love her

the answer is in my words you see
for as surely as there is a cupid
she has the heart that belonged to me

Never in my lifetime have I ever seen

such beauty and such loving grace too
my life would be fullfilled forever
to spend the rest of my life with you

Can I

Can I be the king of your heart

to protect and to love forever
to make sure through my reign
harm will come to it never

Can I be your regal champion

always fighting for your love
never to cede my loyal heart
always true from high above

Can I hold in you in my arms

to tell you what is ever true
how my heart is just a pawn
in the game of love with you

Can I kiss your sweet ruby lips

with all the passion there flowing
and to keep the rest of my days
dedicated to keeping love growing

Can I make a vow to you today

that my love for you will always be
just for you and you alone
this day and throught all eternity

Love In Bloom

His heart sings in rapturous glory

the love of his life is with him
always loving and caring forever
She fills his heart to the brim

Time was when he was so lonesome

he didn't know which way to turn
but his life is so happy today
the love of his life he did learn

Her love came to him ever so swiftly

like a bolt of lighting out of the blue
his heart was won by her that day
forever their love will be true

His lifetime he will always remember

the beautiful lady he saw that night
how wonderful the time he first met her
their love will always be so right

Tonight they will be wed in loving bliss

to live the life they both now yearn
forgetting the things of their past
Their happiness in life they will learn

Will You?

Will you love me tomorrow

as you love me today
will I depend on you
to love me every way

Will you forget all others

who have come to your heart
and love just me darling
will we never ever part

Will our love keep growing

and always be so true
will you tell me this day
that my love is for you

Will you overlook all my faults

and look into my heart
will you love me my darling
please tell me where to start

The Sweetest Words

The sweetest words I have heard

will ever be ingrained in my heart
that warm spring day at our picnic
her words said we would never part

With a voice that mesmerizes me

to hear her sets my heart beating
when I am with that sweet lady
time for us is always fleeting

Lovely is this lady that I love

always so nice and ever so sweet
to be with her forever is my aim
a life that could never be beat

Words I heard that wonderful day

were spoken to me out of the blue
as I held her tightly in my arms
she whispered sweetheart I love you

Your Inner Beauty

The beauty that lies within you

lights up this heart of mine
no other will replace this feeling
may our love age like fine wine

For internal beauty is the best kind

with all acts of kindness from you
surely everyone will say they love
the lady with eyes of heavenly blue

The beauty of your face is apparent

it is there for all of us to see
but look inside of you and know
what real beauty always will be

Her acts of kindness to us all

could fill quite a large book
always helping those she meets
makes no difference how they look

I am so happy to say I know her

and I say to her today sweetheart
your wonderful beauty astounds me
love me forever never let us part

Steal Your Heart

Can I steal your heart

and make it mine forever
to keep it within mine
and to return it never

Forever to be kept by me

never to let it ever go
always and ever loving it
so tenderly to make it grow

Never to have an unhappy day

always to be filled with cheer
know it will never be alone
knowing I will always be near

If I can steal your heart

I will give you mine to keep
every time I would see yours
I know mine would surely leap

Let our hearts beat in union

always to love the other one
never losing love or respect
always until our time is done

Her Sweet Kiss

Her sweet kisses flood my heart

with love I have never known
ever since we had the first kiss
love has bloomed and has grown

I will never forget how it started

just a causal hello, how are you
our eyes met and I was in love
I knew my heart was yours too

Lucky I was to see you that day

our dreams I know can come true
I will ever live in contentment
forever to be in love with you

I know I can make you so happy

My life is now dedicated to you
come with me, spend your lifetime
my love for you will always be true

If I Could Do For You

If I could do everything for you

that your heart desires this day
I would work always with you
to please you in every kind of way

For my heart is always with you

I know you will always love it
today, tomorrow, and forever
our flames of love will be lit

I want to share a life together

doing little things you desire
knowing that brings you happiness
your love sets my heart on fire

In the future I know we will see

a lifetime of love so very true
forever loving one another
you loving me, me loving you

My Heart Beats Lonely

My heart beats lonely without her

Days are long and nights are cold
the endless hours always searching
for that lovely lady I want to hold

I see her every night in my dreams

always coming near but yet so far
letting me love her more every time
setting my helpless heart on fire

How can I get her to love only me

to make her see what I can give
let me open up her beautiful eyes
show her a life she wants to live

Joy and happiness I will want for her

I have heard they go hand in hand
come to me and forever love me
make us the happiest pair in the land

Come Sail With Me

Come sail with me to eternity

may the breezes be forever kind
with your love forever in my heart
and your beautiful face on my mind

Come sail away with me tomorrow

may the winds blow a course so true
always keeping us happy together
may there be love for just us two

Come sail away with me forever

may all our days be so bright
with you in my arms my darling
love will last through the night

Come sail with me sweet lady

we will cruise the world today
with all your love in my heart
forever together we will stay

I Will Try Aagain Tomorrow

I will try again tomorrow

to be better than I am today
I will try to make her happy
with each word I have to say

I will try again tomorrow

to say what she wants to hear
to reassure her of my love
whisper sweet things in her ear

I will try again tomorrow

to be the man she wants of me
to let her know my feelings
how my love will forever be

I will try again tomorrow

to tell her what she means to me
Of all the love and affection
in my heart there always will be

Sing A Song To My Heart

Will you sing a song to my heart

can you sing it with love this day
playing the sweet music in my ear
and beautiful words that you say

My heart aches for your lovely song

one in which you sing your love of me
The beautiful lyrics from your voice
assures me that our love always will be

The sound of your sweet song thrills me

it drives my heart to beat so rapidly
sing your song every day for me to hear
forever your love will be for only me

Your beautiful voice allures my heart

ever to flirt and tempt it you see
sing it at the top of your voice now
make this a perfect world for you and me
