So, we want you to read this poem often,
so you're reminded of just how marvelous you really are,
because if our admiration was a distance,
then it would be further than the furthest star.
For our wonderful parents,
this poem is just for you,
especially commissioned for the occasion,
we've got an awful lot to get through.
You wrote and read a poem at your father?s service,
and you spoke about him missing your wedding day,
and although that one line expresses so much,
it still means there's so much left to say:
You said you would love it if I would write you a poem,
but I know that you're very creative, and I am not at all,
but in anything I have ever done, you've supported me 110%,
and I am just so very glad that you made that initial call.
This poem was meant to be funny,
and it's funny how words come along,
sometimes humour can serve you well,
at other times it can do you wrong.
I remember writing you a poem once before,
if I recall, it was our very first Valentine's date,
I woke up in the middle of the night,
and put pen to paper about my soul mate.
I said some heartfelt words in (NAME) poem,
and that's what these words are for,
a chance to have my say to you,
a chance to even up the score.
So from The Big Kids and The Little Kids,
(and with this poem we proudly unite),
we'd like to say a very big thank you,
thanks for being our guiding light.
For my wonderful parents,
this poem is just for you,
it'll be narrated by (name) and (name),
and we've got an awful lot to get through!
A long, long time ago,
I purchased a poem, similar to this,
lame verse after lame verse,
with rhymes like "sealed with a kiss".
Hello (NAME),
This poem is just for you,
Filled with love and sparkle,
Just like your eyes so blue.
Well, the poem I need written,
is to my best friend (NAME),
we're both in our first year of college,
and yes, we're both eighteen.
Hello, my wonderful (name),
this poem is just for you,
because I'm proud of who you are,
and I'm so proud of what you do.
Skiing trips in (plaace),
the YMCA at(place),
a poem without those memories,
would simply be incomplete.
Hello, my wonderful Grandparents,
this poem is just for you,
because we're proud of who you are,
and we're proud of what you do.
So just know that we think (NAME) was a hero,
and everyday he's there in our heart,
I don't know how much one poem can do,
but I do know that (hopefully) it's a start.
I would like a poem for my boyfriend,
he is 27, I am 24,
I've had other relationships,
but I've never felt this secure.
Why do I want this poem written ?
Well, I guess it is because,
I want to say that I love her,
I love everything that she does.
For our wonderful parents,
this poem is just for you,
especially commissioned for the occasion,
we've got an awful lot to get through.
I need a poem,
to let him know,
how much I love him,
and what he means to me.
