It is a wanting
a Longing
a needing
Someone
wanting, longing, needing also
To give,
to share,
to dream,
to be one with
Hand in hand
Side by side
minds connected
souls bound by Longing and Loving
I wish you Love.

Treasures Found
Recently, while moving, I found some poems I wrote many years ago that I thought that I had lost. I thought that I would share a couple of them:
Why

May 22, 1981
The world is a dance floor
crowded with people
Everywhere I look
no partner is left.
Everyone is taken
everyone but me.
I am the odd one
left to dance alone.
Summer 1986 (untitled) © 2010 Janette Marie
You excite my mind
expanding my horizons
Thus making my world exciting
You challenge my wit and
encourage it back
thus adding humor to my day
You sense my feelings and understand
thus making me feel important
You share your thoughts and concerns
Thus showing that you trust
You always keep me guessing
thus adding adventure to my life
You will always smile
Thus letting me know you care
You are all these things and more
Thus my reasons for loving you.

I wonder if you. . .
. . . feel
. . . see
. . . want
. . . need and
. . . Love
Like me?
Haiku (Seasons) December 13, 1979

As I look outside
the wind blows and the snow falls
till the seasons change
After the rains start
the flowers start to come up
then kissed by the sun.
Barefoot in the grass
the hot sun beaming down
until the night comes
Sitting outside now
the orange sun is setting
down to go to sleep

Simple Shoes
written by: Janette © 2010 Janette Marie
The man that wears the Simple shoes
he fills so many different pairs
each one has a special place
within the world we live
First lets talk about his loving shoes
filled with kindness from his heart
polished with his gentle hands
to see that those he meets will shine
These Loving Shoes are very large
wide enough to hold the world
safe within their warm embrace
giving and caring to all in need
These Loving shoes take extra care
for young and sick alike
the little ones that need the Love
are taken in his care
Oh, how the world is truly blessed
to know this man with Loving Shoes
The Man that wears these Simple Loving Shoes
His name is Michael Jackson
The man that wears the Simple shoes

Fairytale
written by: Janette Marie July 2010
Once upon a lifetime
there was a handsome boy
he stole the heart of a sweet young girl
totally by surprise
They've only known each other
by the sharing of the written word
but hearing who the other is
by these special rhyming words
A love this true
will never be blue
it's shared between two
she'll spend a lifetime with you.

Do you have a clue?

Do you have a clue
what I'm wishing you
a day that gives to you
sunshine mixed with a sky so blue
Every tweet that comes from you
you tweet my heart a clue
you share a peek of you
in all that you do
Do you have a clue
what I'm wishing you?

You've Autographed My Heart
written by: Janette Marie © 2010 Janette Marie
The warmth of the sun
comforts my heart
These days that we're apart
endless dreams of days to come
when we'll share contented joy
Glimpses of your smile
shine brightly from your heart
sharing deeply all your love
you've autographed my heart
The open field of fireflies
our playground to discover
each other's precious spirit
to build a life together
the rhythm of our hearts
Glimpses of your Smile
shine brightly from your heart
sharing deeply all your Love
You've autographed my heart.
The coolest of nights
with the brightest Moon
creates magic in our hearts
sitting quietly together
among God's great creations
twin souls find they are content
Glimpses of your smile
shine brightly from your heart
sharing deeply all your love
you've autographed my heart.

In the quiet of the night
I can hear your heart beating
In the stillness of the night
I can feel your breath on my face
In the dark of the night
I feel your lips on my cheek
and your tender touch along my face
My sweetest Love I long to see your face
to see you smile, to hear you laugh
to know your thoughts throughout the day
to share our time and enjoy Love
Love is often misunderstood
to love you is to give you happiness
truest love asks for nothing but recieves all it needs
I pledge Love to you in the purest form I can give
and I promise everyday to practice till perfect
My heart needs you
my mind desires yours
my loves desires a place to grow
and it's chosen your heart.

Reflections of Love

Love; a very simple word
yet holds meaning beyond our understanding.
Love is free and yet priceless
easy to say; difficult to practice.
Love is an emotion~Love is an action
and action is where we sometimes fail.
Love is a state of mind.
You see people around you differently
when we choose to see them with loving eyes.
This is seeing without hate and without prejudice
without jealousy, without anger, without fear
It is seeing with trust
When we see a baby
we all see the baby with eyes of Love
doesn't matter its color, its religion
its positon in the world
We see the baby; the creation of God
and we see the baby with loving eyes
this is how we should see each other
See each others' presence
as a blessing and be wise
with our time and treat each other
as God's special creations
To care for, to guide,
to encourage, to heal
to give our love freely
for the welfare of the other person
This is Love
unselfish and pleasing to God
Love is a challenge
Love is its reward
I love you ~ is a promise.

Perfect World

Sitting here in my hometown
Watching the sun upon the ground
the trees no longer have the leaves
with colors that make you smile
The green of the grass has faded
awaiting the white blanket of winter
today seems cold and lonley
you're not smiling I can feel
My heart feels heavy
having watched unfold
the stories told only yesterday
that tested your endurance
Why can't this be a perfect world
no hurts ~ no sorrows
no fears ~ no tears
I long for a happy tomorrow
when a smile returns to you.

Oceans won't divide us

Choose Peace not war

Rainbow round the Moon
so like your hold upon my heart
a colorful circle of comfort
enclosing the warmth of your love.
