Love Poems: Poetry of Romance

Love Poems

Day by day
Night by night
Kiss by kiss
Touch by touch
Step by step
I fall in love
A love so incomprehensible
So vivid
So unique
So wild, that not even the reign of God could control
A passion so deep
A need so necessary
A want so strong
The universe would not handle
I love you today
I’ll love you tomorrow
I’ll love you forever

– By Julio Patino –

Gift to loved one: Love token Gifts

A Wish

I lie on the ground,
and stare into space,
the stars start to move,
into the shape of your face.

I see you there now,
looking down at me,
with that cute little smile,
that I like to see.

You say “close your eyes”,
“tell me what you see”,
I see only two people,
just you and me.

We’re walking the shoreline,
with our feet getting wet,
the horizon turns pink,
as the sun starts to set.

We make love through the night,
on that white sandy shore,
then I hold you while thinking,
I could want nothing more.

Oh I wish I could be,
in that one special place,
as I lie on the ground,
and I stare into space…

– By Randy Schutte –

Will you ever?

I don’t think you will
ever fully understand
how you’ve touched my life
and made me who I am.

I don’t think you could ever know
just how truly special you are
that even on the darkest nights
you are my brightest star.

I don’t think you will ever fully comprehend
how you’ve made my dreams come true
or how you’ve opened my heart
to love and the wonders it can do.

You’ve allowed me to experience
something very hard to find
unconditional love that exists
in my body, soul, and mind.

I don’t think you could ever feel
all the love I have to give
and I’m sure you’ll never realize
you’ve been my will to live.

You are an amazing person
and without you I don’t know where I’d be.
Having you in my life
completes and fulfills every part of me.

Funny Rules and Relationship: Fun saying about Love

There are of course rules for love and relationship between men and women. Did you know? I sure had not and I am glad, otherwise I might have been worried to get in to relationship itself. 🙂 Here is humorous rules for men and women for you to smile with as you read it with your love.

General Female Rules

These Rules are subject to change at any time without prior notification.

No MALE can possibly know all The Rules.

If the FEMALE suspects the MALE knows The Rules, she must immediately change The Rules.

The FEMALE is never wrong.

If the FEMALE is mistaken, it is a direct result of something the MALE did or said wrong.

The MALE must apologize immediately for causing said misunderstanding.

The FEMALE may change her mind at any time.

The MALE must never change his mind without the written consent of the FEMALE

The FEMALE has the right to be upset or angry at any time.

The MALE must remain calm at all times, unless the FEMALE wants him to be angry and/or upset.

If the FEMALE has PMS, all The Rules are null and void.

The MALE is expected to mind read constantly and act accordingly.

Any attempt to document The Rules could result in actual bodily harm.

The MALE who doesn’t abide by The Rules can’t take the heat, lacks backbone, and is a whimp.

General Male Rules

1. Anything we said six or eight months ago is inadmissible in an argument. All comments become null and void after seven days.

2. If you don’t want to dress like Victoria’s Secret girls, don’t expect us to act like soap opera guys.

3. If we say something that can be interpreted in two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other way.

4. It is in neither your best interest or ours to make us take those stupid Cosmo quizzes together.

5. Let us ogle. If we don’t look at other women how can we know how pretty you are?

6. Don’t rub the lamp if you don’t want the genie to come out.

7. You can either ask us to do something OR tell us how you want it done – not both.

8. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.

9. Christopher Columbus didn’t need directions and neither do we.

10. Women who wear Wonder bras and low-cut blouses lose their right to complain about having their boobs stared at.

11. When we’re turning the wheel and the car is nosing onto the off ramp, you saying, “This is our exit?” is not necessary.

Relationship between men and women is romantic and yet often funny and hilarious. Here are some poems and funny sayings about men and women’s relationship and love. Enjoy.

The Moods of a Woman

An angel of truth and a dream of fiction,
A woman is a bundle of contradiction,
She’s afraid of a wasp, will scream at a mouse,
But will tackle a stranger alone in the house.
Sour as vinegar, sweet as a rose,
She’ll kiss you one minute, then turn up her nose,
She’ll win you in rage, enchant you in silk,
She’ll be stronger than brandy, milder than milk,
At times she’ll be vengeful, merry and sad,
She’ll hate you like poison, and love you like mad.

The Moods of a Man

Hungry
Horny
Sleepy

Husband shopping

A store that sells husbands has just opened, where a woman may go to choose a husband from among many men. The store is comprised of 6 floors, and the men increase in positive attributes as the shopper ascends the flights.
There is however, a catch. As you open the door to any floor, you may choose a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go back down except to exit the building.
So a woman goes to the shopping center to find a husband…
On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 – These men have jobs.
The second floor sign reads: Floor 2 – These men have jobs and love kids.
The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 – These men have jobs, love kids and are extremely good looking.
“Wow,” so she goes to the fourth floor, and sign reads: Floor 4 – These men have jobs, loves kids, are extremely good looking and help with the housework. “Oh, mercy me!”
So she goes to the fifth floor and sign reads: Floor 5 – These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking, help with the housework and have a strong romantic streak.
She is so tempted she runs to the sixth floor and sign reads: Floor 6 – You are visitor 3,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart’s Husband Store.

Motivational Quotes From Dalai Lama

Motivational and inspirational quotes from wise man Dalai Lama, He simply amazes me with his wisdom and his teaching about peace and contentedness. Dalai Lama is one of wisest leader who inspires many of us to live better.

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.
~ Dalai Lama

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
~ Dalai Lama

We humans have existed in our present form for about a hundred thousand years. I believe that if during this time the human mind had been primarily controlled by anger and hatred, our overall population would have decreased. But today, despite all our wars, we find that the human population is greater than ever. This clearly indicates to me that love and compassion predominate in the world. And this is why unpleasant events are “news”; compassionate activities are so much a part of daily life that they are taken for granted and , therefore, largely ignored. – Dalai Lama

I myself feel, and also tell other Buddhists that the question of Nirvana will come later.
There is not much hurry. -Dalai Lama

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.- Dalai Lama

If in day to day life you lead a good life, honesty, with love, with compassion, with less selfishness, then automatically it will lead to Nirvana. – Dalai Lama

If the love within your mind is lost and you see other beings as enemies, then no matter how much knowledge or education or material comfort you have, only suffering and confusion will ensue. – Dalai Lama

True compassion is not just an emotional response but a firm commitment founded on reason. – Dalai Lama

If the love within your mind is lost and you see other beings as enemies, then no matter how much knowledge or education or material comfort you have, only suffering and confusion will ensue.
~ Dalai Lama

A truly compassionate attitude toward others does not change even if they behave negatively or hurt you.~ Dalai Lama

Sleep is the best meditation.
~ Dalai Lama

Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive. -Dalai Lama

Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend – or a meaningful day.
~ Dalai Lama

Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them.
~ Dalai Lama

It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come.
~ Dalai Lama

All major religious traditions carry basically the same message, that is love, compassion and forgiveness the important thing is they should be part of our daily lives.
~ Dalai Lama

Sometimes one creates a dynamic impression by saying something, and sometimes one creates as significant an impression by remaining silent.
~ Dalai Lama

True compassion is universal in scope. It is accompanied by a feeling of responsibility. – Dalai Lama

Under the bright sun, many of us are gathered together with different languages, different styles of dress, even different faiths. However, all of us are the same in being humans, and we all uniquely have the thought of “I,” and we´re all the same in wanting happiness and in wanting to avoid suffering. -Dalai Lama

We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.
~ Dalai Lama

Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn’t anyone who doesn’t appreciate kindness and compassion.
~ Dalai Lama

When we are young and again when we are old, we depend heavily on the affection of others. Between these stages we usually feel that we can do everything without help from others and that other people’s affection is simply not important. But at this stage I think it is very important to keep deep human affection.
~ Dalai Lama

It is necessary to help others, not only in our prayers, but in our daily lives. If we find we cannot help others, the least we can do is to desist from harming them.
~ Dalai Lama

This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness. ~ Dalai Lama

I find hope in the darkest of days, and focus in the brightest. I do not judge the universe.
~ Dalai Lama

Whether someone believes something or not, believer or non-believer, as long as you are a member of the human family, you need warm human feeling, warmhearted feeling. The question of world peace, the question of family peace, the question of peace between wife and husband, or peace between parents and children, everything is dependent on that feeling of love and warmheartedness. -Dalai Lama

If you have a particular faith or religion, that is good. But you can survive without it.
~ Dalai Lama

The roots of all goodness lie in the soil of appreciation for goodness.
~ Dalai Lama

In the practice of tolerance, one’s enemy is the best teacher.
~ Dalai Lama

Today, more than ever before, life must be characterized by a sense of Universal responsibility, not only nation to nation and human to human, but also human to other forms of life.
~ Dalai Lama

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
~ Dalai Lama

A truly compassionate attitude toward others does not change even if they behave negatively or hurt you. -Dalai Lama

The success of love is in the loving – it is not in the result of loving. Of course it is natural in love to want the best for the other person, but whether it turns out that way or not does not determine the value of what we have done.
~ Mother Teresa

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence… We need silence to be able to touch souls.
~ Mother Teresa

If we want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.
~ Mother Teresa

Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.
~ Mother Teresa

The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.
~ Mother Teresa
I do not pray for success, I ask for faithfulness.
~ Mother Teresa

Cheshire Cat: (appears suddenly) Well, she simply said you’re a fat, pompous, bad-tempered old tyrant! (disappears laughing)
Alice: Oh, Cheshire Cat! It’s you!
Cheshire Cat: Whom did you expect? The White Rabbit perchance?
Alice: [crying] Oh, no, no, no. I-I-I’m through with white rabbits. I want to go home! [blows nose] But I can’t find my way.
Cheshire Cat: Naturally. That’s because you have no way. All ways here, you see, are the QUEEN’S WAYS!!
Alice: But I’ve never met any Queen.
Cheshire Cat: You haven’t? You haven’t?! Oh, but you must! She’ll be mad about you. Simply mad.
Mad Hatter: I beg your pardon?
Alice: Why is a raven like a writing desk?
Mad Hatter: [shocked] WHY IS A WHAT?!
March Hare: [nervously] Careful! SHE’S STARK RAVING MAD!
Alice: But it’s your silly riddle. You just said…
Mad Hatter: [nervously] Easy! Don’t get excited!
March Hare: [trying to make peace with Alice] how about a nice cup of tea?
Alice: [Angrily] “Have a cup of tea” indeed! Well, I’M sorry, but i just HAVEN’T the time!

Alice: [drinks from the “Drink Me” bottle] Mmm… tastes like cherry tart. [unknowingly shrinks down to the size of the table; takes another sip] Custard. [shrinks down again, barely holding onto the bottle; takes another drink] Pineapple. [shrinks down so much, she’s now even smaller than the bottle itself and struggling with its weight] Roast turkey – [finally aware of the potion’s effect] Goodness! [unable to support the bottle any longer, she slips and drops it; the “Drink Me” label covers her] What did I do?!
Doorknob: [chuckles] You almost went out like a candle!
Alice: [runs up to the Doorknob; delighted] But look! I’m just the right size!
[She’s about to open the door, but the Doorknob pulls away.]
Doorknob: No use. [laughs] I forgot to tell you. I’m locked!
Alice: Oh no!
Doorknob: [stops laughing] But of course, you’ve got the key, so-
Alice: What key?
Doorknob: Now, don’t tell me you’ve left it up there?!
[A key magically appears on the table Alice can no longer reach.]
Alice: Oh dear!
Narrator: [first lines] Once upon a time in the hot golden summer day in London, a little girl named Alice sat perched in a tree listening to her big sister read aloud from a history book. In fact, she was ildy weaving a daisy chain for her cat, Dianah who was curled up beside her on the sturdy low branch.
Alice’s Sister: Alice. Will you kindly pay attention to your history lesson?
Alice: I’m sorry, but how can one possibly pay attention to a book with no pictures in it?
Alice’s Sister: My dear child, there are a great many good books in this world without pictures.
Alice: In this world, perhaps, but in my world, the books would be nothing but pictures.
Alice’s Sister: Your world? Huh! What nonsense.
Alice: [getting inspiration] Nonsense?
Alice’s Sister: Once more, from the beginning.
Alice: [to her cat] That’s it, Dinah. If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn’t. And contrariwise, what it is, it wouldn’t be. And what it wouldn’t be it would. You see?
Dinah: Meow.
Alice: In my world, you wouldn’t say “meow.” You’d say, “Yes, Miss Alice.”
Dinah: Meow.
Alice: Oh, but you would. You’d be just like people, Dinah. And all the other animals too.

Quotes By Gandhi: Wisdom Mahama Gandhi Sayings

Mohandas Gandhi was one of the wisest man and man about Peace. Even Martin Luther King was influenced by his philosophy and life when he started his civil freedom for black in USA. Here are some inspirational and motivational quotes by Gandhi that will inspire and uplift your life.

Seven social sins: politics without principles, wealth without work, pleasure without conscience, knowledge without character, commerce without morality, science without humanity, and worship without sacrifice.

Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.-Mahatma Gandhi
Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary.Satyagraha Leaflet No. 13

I came to the conclusion long ago … that all religions were true and also that all had some error in them, and whilst I hold by my own, I should hold others as dear as Hinduism. So we can only pray, if we are Hindus, not that a Christian should become a Hindu … But our innermost prayer should be a Hindu should be a better Hindu, a Muslim a better Muslim, a Christian a better Christian. -Young India (19 January 1928)

I’m a lover of my own liberty, and so I would do nothing to restrict yours. I simply want to please my own conscience, which is God.

  • Young India (21 January 1927)

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

A good person will resist an evil system with his whole soul. Disobedience of the laws of an evil state is therefore a duty.

“Hate the sin and not the sinner” is a precept which, though easy enough to understand, is rarely practiced, and that is why the poison of hatred spreads in the world.

GandhiJi’s Books:

Non-Violent Resistance (Satyagraha)

Autobiography: The Story of My Experiments with Truth

Selfishness is blind.

Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary.

Nonviolence is the first article of my faith. It is also the last article of my creed.

Unless discipline is rooted in nonviolence, it might prove a source of infinite mischief.

Civil disobedience is the assertion of a right which law should give but which it denies.

Non-cooperation and civil disobedience are different but branches of the same tree call Satyagraha (truth-force).

Non-cooperation is a measure of discipline and sacrifice, and it demands respect for the opposite views.

Gandhi_South-AfricaIf we are to reach real peace in this world and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with children; and if they will grow up in their natural innocence, we won’t have to struggle, we won’t have to pass fruitless idle resolutions. But we shall go from love to love and peace to peace, until at last all the corners of the world are covered with that peace and love for which, consciously or unconsciously, the whole world is hungering.

True discipline gives enthusiastic obedience to instructions even though they don not satisfy the reason.

One who uses coercion is guilty of deliberate violence. Coercion is inhuman.

Evolution of democracy is not possible if we are not prepared to hear the other side.

Conscience is the ripe fruit of strictest discipline.

Corruption and hypocrisy ought not to be inevitable products of democracy, as they undoubtedly are today.

Unless discipline is rooted in nonviolence, it might prove a source of infinite mischief.

Faith gains in strength only when people are willing to lay down their lives for it.

Even as a tree has a single trunk but many branches and leaves, there is one religion -human religion- but any number of faiths.

Fasting is an institution as old as Adam. It has been resorted to for self-purification or for some ends, noble as well as ignoble.

Fear is not a disease of the body, fear kills the soul.

Where there is fear, there is not religion.

Freedom is like birth. Till we are fully free, we are slaves.

Freedom received through the efforts of others, however benevolent, cannot be retained when such effort is withdrawn.

Justice does not help those who slumber but helps only those who are vigilant.

Independence means voluntary restraints and discipline, voluntary acceptance of the rule of law.

Today machinery merely helps a few to ride on the backs of millions.

To observe morality is to attain mastery over our mind and our passions.

Truth and nonviolence demand that no human being may debar himself from serving any other human being, no matter how sinful he may be.

Peace will not come out of a clash of arms but out of justice lived and done by unarmed nations in the face of odds.

What I object to is the craze for machinery, not machinery as such.

Moral authority is never retained by any attempt to hold on to it. It comes without seeking and is retained without effort.

My patriotism is not an exclusive thing. It is all-embracing and I should reject that patriotism which sought to mount the distress or exploitation of other nationalities.

Passive resistance is a method of securing rights by personal suffering; it is the reverse of resistance by arms.

It is my firm conviction that if the State supressed capitalism by violence, it will be caught in the coils of violence itself, and will fail to develop non-violence at any time. The State represents violence in a concentrated and organized form. The individual has a soul, but as the State is a soulless machine, it can never be weaned from violence to which it owes its very existence.

Sorrow and suffering make for character if they are voluntarily borne, but not if they are imposed.
If your heart acquires strength, you will be able to remove blemishes from others without thinking evil of them.

It can be easily demonstrated that destruction of the capitalist must mean destruction in the end of the worker and as no human being is so bad as to be beyond redemption, no human being is so perfect as to warrant his destroying him whom he wrongly considers to be wholly evil.

Truth, which is permanent, eludes the historian of events. Truth transcends history.
