Don't Rush Love Poem
@ DON’T RUSH

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people
Before meeting the right one
So that when we finally meet the right person
We should know how to be grateful for the gift.

What is love?
Those who don’t like it, call it responsibility
Those who play it, call it game
Those who don’t have it, call it dream
Those who love it, call it destiny
.
Sometimes God knows the best
Will give us sorrow as a test
Sometimes He will wound the heart
For greater wisdom to impart.

If we lose love, we lose it for a reason
That reason may be hard to understand
But whatever it is, we just have to believe
That God takes away
When He has something better to give.

Why wait?
Because although we want to be decisive,
We do not want to be impulsive.
Although we want to be swift,
We do not want to be hasty.
Although we want to hold on to the one we love,
We do not want to lose ourselves in the process.

If we want to run, we must first learn how to walk
If we want to swim, we must first learn how to float
If we want love, we must learn to love
In the end, it is still best to wait for the one you love
Rather than settle for the one who is around
It is still best to wait for the right person
Because life is too short to waste on the wrong one,
Because waiting serves a purpose.

Noble and mysterious, you have to know
That flower do not bloom overnight
Rome was not built in a day
A life grows in the womb for nine months
Great love grows steadily over a lifetime
Most good things in life take a long time
And they are all worth waiting for.
These, despite the fact that although waiting
Requires a lot of things – faith, courage, and hope
Waiting guarantees nothing one cannot imagine
After all, God in all wisdom asks us to wait
For one essential

    Sometimes we think that our plans must lead down a better road, or that God must not love us enough to protect us from this pain we feel, but God actually uses the painful experiences to further develop our character. Vivian Thomas could have given up when it became too discouraging, but instead he persevered and became an inspiration to many people. During times that are hard, God teaches us more about life, ourselves, and most importantly, about Him. Sometimes it is even necessary to go through a difficult time before we are able to realize the ways in which we need to grow and…

    Love and Gavin Tyler Poem

    In the poem; "The Wisdom of Shelley" by George Elliot Clarke there is much imagery and symbolism used throughout the entire work. The author very rapidly sets the tone of the poem, as well as gives the reader hints of past major events in “Shelley’s” life. Immediately the mood of negativity is created. Everything that is presented to her is received by her in a different light. There is strong imagery based on the contrast. The author draws a picture in the reader’s mind, with his use of imagery in his poem. An example of an image drawn mentally by the use of descriptive words in the poem would be; “Like a late blizzard, You bust in our door, talkin' April and snow and rain,” This allows the reader to picture in their mind the very same image the author is imagining and writing about. By compairing the man to a “late blizzard” and saying that he busted in the door, leads to the fact that she, Shelley, does not welcome him or his love. Also, there are several symbols found in this poem. A few of these would be; “poems”, and “Roses got thorns”. Poems represent love and feelings, so when the man enters the house “litterin' the table with poems” he comes in expressing his emotions to her, yet with the use of the word “litterin’” she makes it sound like it’s a bad and fowl action he is committing. Finally, roses and thorns are a symbol which represents, the positive and negative of love. The rose is all about love, happiness and beauty. Whereas the thorns brings things back to reality, with the pain, and downside of love and a relationship. Clarke does an excellent job of incorporating and including much imagery and symbols in his…

    Tattoos are permanent symbols that last forever, while relationships can’t be guaranteed permanent now a days. Kim Addonizio chooses tattoos as a symbol in this poem “First poem for you.” Water and lightning is what makes the poem most symbolistic. “Lines of lightning pulsing just above your nipple can find as if by instinct the blue swirls of water on your shoulder where a serpent twists facing a dragon.” Though symbols can have more than one meaning to them the poem helps to point of the specific meaning of these symbols.…

    First Poem for You

    The Shakespearean sonnet “First Poem for You” has an iambic pentameter and consistent rhyme scheme. Every other line represents a true rhyme – the final accented vowels and all succeeding consonants or syllables are identical. For example the words “complete” and “neat” (Addonizio 1, 3). Every line of the poem has a basic stressed and unstressed syllable format, except the last line. The extension of the last line “but touch them, trying” implements a longer stress (14). I believe this has definite meaning to the structure of the poem. In addition, the final verse of the poem is the longest line. In relation to the word “trying”, I believe that the longer stress and length in the final line of the poem emphasizes the woman continuing to mend the relationship with her boyfriend. The theme of the poem is about love and desire, a woman who cares for her boyfriend seeks to mend the brokenness in their relationship.…

    Obesity is a growing problem and it is prevalent in all ages of society. America is no exception; in fact, America is the leading source of obesity. The obesity problem is tackled by Greg Critser and Mary Ray Worley. In Critser’s article, “Too Much of a Good Thing,” he explains how obesity takes place not only in adults, but also in children. In fact, twenty-five percent of Americans under the age of nineteen are obese. Parents can be held responsible for developing good eating habits for their children. Fixing eating habits during childhood provide a solution for limiting obesity. If bad eating habits are developed at a young age, weight problems can become more predominant later in life.…
