Love Poems


Some consider love poems dead on arrival and do not give them much consideration. I say written expressions of love for one's mate light up the heart, keeping the memories from when they first fell in love alive.

The truth is that couples face many challenges in these modern times, but what a marvelous achievement it is when they meet and overcome those challenges while remaining firm in their love for each other.

However, pain and heartache are also experienced when a loved one dies or when a relationship fails. Times of anguish, no doubt. Several of my poems touch on this genuine part of life.

Though I've composed poems for my wife, not all posted on this page are autobiographical. Several were written when inspired by an image or an article I read.
