LOVE love covers a multitude of sins love makes the world go round love gives cheerfully love does not count the cost of making sacrifices love blames no one love avenges no wrong love avoids darkness and operates in light love rebuilds, love protects,
love renews,

CHARACTER
when wealth is lost,nothing is lost.
when health is lost,something is lost.
but when character is lost,everything is lost.
opportunity may be lost
circumstance may change
beauty may die
riches may have wings and fly away
but the richest quality in the life of humanity is
CHARACTER
The Definition of Love
Love is the power
in the center of your soul,
that makes you feel needed
and wanted and whole.
It is the force within
that heals the wounds of life,
that eases your anguish
and lessens your strife.
It's giving and caring
and kindness and sharing,
it's trusting each other
and never comparing.
It's the foundation of which
your soul is built upon,
that never will die
and will always live on.

I LOVE MY LOVE IN THE MORNING I love my love in the morning for she like morning is fair- her blushing cheek, its crimson streak, it clouds her golden hair; her glance,its beam,so soft and kind; her tears,its dewy showers; and her voice,the tender whispering wind that stirs the early bowers.
LOVE'S PHILOSOPHY.
The fountain mingle with the river
and the river with the ocean
the winds of heaven mix forever
with a sweet emotion
nothng in the world is single
all thing by law divine
in one spirit meet and mingle.
why not i with thee
A VISION OF BEAUTY
it was a beauty that i saw
so pure, so perfect as the frame
of all the universe were lame
to that one figure
could i drain
or give least line of it's law:
A skein of silk without a knot!
A fair march made without a halt!
A curious form without a fault!
A printed book without a blot!
All beauty!-and without a spot
FRIENSHIP
Written with a pen
sealed with a kiss
if you are my friend,
are we friends, or we are not
you told me once,but i forgot
so tell me now and tell me true
so i can say, i am here for you
of all the friends i've ever met
you are the one i won't forget
and if i die before you do
i'll go to heaven
and wait for you.
show me your friend.
Oh! A nice friend
Oh! A bad and foolish friend
how difficult it is to blend with both
show me your friend
And i will tell you who you are
As dead flies gives off bad smell
So a little folly outweigh wisdom and honour
The heart of the wise inclines to the right
But the heart of the foolish to the left
I tell you,
Evil communication corrupts good manner
So, mind the friends you run with
Because if you can't beat them
You just have to join them

Time Flies Retrieved from my Friend, Omotunde(not sure if she wrote it but nicked it of her)
Time flies, while not away your youthful mornings attend to your work my dear friend it's hardwork that promote man. if you have no one to lean on, if your confidence in man is betrayed, engage your trust in hardwork. your mother may be wealthy, your father may be affluent, if you rely on theirs,
you are doomed be warned.
whatever is not worked for,
never last long enough,
whatever is acquired through sweat,
always endures for ever.
your hands are your kith,
your arms your kin,
if your friends hail you today
so long as you retain your affluence,
so long they will keep on hailing.
or if you are a status of honour,
admirers will smoother you with smiles,
should you experience a set back,
and behold how they jeer at you.
education also promotes power and prestige,
ensure maximum acquisition
should you come across those who deride knowledge,
be warned never to emulate.
sufferings awaits the deliquent,
regret is in store for the prodical.
while not away your youthful morning,
attend to your work,time flies.
knowledge is light,
ignorance is darkness.
education confers knowledge,
and knowledge is power.
education is the greatest legacy
any worthwhile generation can
bequeath to it's posterity
seek then first the kingdom of education,
axe down the timber of illetracy,
wage then first the war against ignorance,
and all other things shall be added.
to plan for a season,plant maize
to plan for a decade,plant trees,
to plan for life,train and educate the youths

Love.
your love your love has lifted me outside of myself and helped me see beyond my normal range of vision. your love has helped me get past many personal barriers. you took my hand, gave me a smile, and helped me realize
my own worth.
your love has made the daily frustrations and
petty demans of life
seem less important,
and the small daily blessings
so much meaningful.
your love has made me
aim higher for my dreams,
because it has shown me
that great things are possible
i cherish your love.
WHY
why do you make me love you,
if you know you won't love me back?
why do you make my heart skip a beat,
if you know i will never do the same to you?
why are you always there when i need you,
if you know that makes me love you more?
why does your smile light up my day,
when you know my world is dark without you?
why do i write these silly poems,
when i know you will never read them?
why do i dream of you at night,
when i know i will never wake up to your smile?
why do you tell me you care about me,
if you know you could not love me?
why can't you love me,
when you know i love you???
SO CALLED FRIENDS.
they leave you behind
you can catch up
they break your heart
you can mend it
they steal your boyfriends
just look for another one
they ignore you
make them sit up and take notice
they talk bad about you
prove them wrong
you still end up alone like an unwanted piece of trash.
you know you are worth more than that
shout in their face
tell them you have had enough
seduce their boyfriend
spread rumours about them
stop!
you know better than that
these"so called friends" are worthless
of your breath
or your voice
instead be nice
make new friends
make a name for yourself
make them regret
make them yearn to be your friend
that's how many friends you're going to have
take these two cents from me
earn millions from it
|
Ex- lovers not long ago you were my best friend but in time my heart will mend i'll survive the headache and pain and know i haven't lost but gained i wish i didn't need you so bad, if only you weren't such a good lad if i hadn't been such a fool right now i'd be holding you no one could ever love me the way you did
but i guess now we through
i love you with all my heart
and deep within i know we will never part away but still be friends

To My Mum
A MOTHER IS SPECIAL... a mother is special she's as soft and graceful as a butterful, yet as strong and courageous as a grizzly bear. her heart is large enough to hold everyone's pain and joy. her hands are always gently and soothing. her arms are always warm and tender. she works hard to make a home feel like home, and she strives to make life pleasant
and comfortable for those she loves.
she never fails to go that extra mile
to make the holidays happy and memorable.
her job is the most difficult and
demanding ever known to any human being,
yet she's fully dedicated to the task.
she's always there for her family,
guiding them and keeping them safe from harm.
she owns a magical way to raise
sprits and make everything feel better.
and her symparty,unselfishness
and forgiveness are unending.
all that anyone is or could ever hope to be
can be attributed to a mother.
she instills the teachings
that will lasts a lifetime
she sow the seeds of virtue and morality,
and in the process, she opens up love
and vast horizons.
she's always watching and hoping that
her children's goals will have meaning.
she always listens and tries to understand
even when it's difficult to do so
she's a true friend in every sense of the word.
she's noble and sublime,
and holds all the beauty of a golden day,
yet even during the storms,
she always shines bright like an evening star.
her name should be honoured well,
for she's the closest to God.
