Most Liked Family Poems (502)

All for the love of grandparents,
I'd give up my latter days,
and go back to the time that once was so fine,
eating supper on T.V. trays.

Always in the way when Grandpa was gardening,
I was really just trying to assist.
He never knew it, but, I once threw a tomato
at him and it's a good thing I missed.

Grandma's the best cook that I've ever known.
Her Thanksgiving meals were a shocker.
I used to wonder if, out of disguise,
she might really be Betty Crocker.

The spanknigs I got never seemed to hurt long,
for I knew their love was still there.
My grandparents are living tributes
to grandparents everywhere.

I could go on writing about them for years,
finding nothing but good to say.
But, these few verses should help you to grasp
the message I'm trying to convey.

My grandparents are the greatest.
And, in my book, none can compete.
For they are the grandest grandparents
you'd ever chance to meet.

Time is moving ever so fast
turn your head
to the left to the right
hurry make everything right
because your life will not
last and last
time is moving ever so fast
what time is it?
The last person ask
as I wait for things to
come to pass
Iv already wasted
the time , so they say
time is moving ever so fast
I walk the floors
worrying about
how long will my life will last
but before I know it
death has already come
and just yesterday I
thought I pray Iam not
the next one
time is moving ever so fast
so make the best of it
be kind and try to have a blast
watch your words you say
they could be your last
because time is moving ever so fast
kiss your babys
hug your mama
tell your dad you love him
make love to your mate
you never know it may be to late
say your sorry
find a friend who is true
there not much time and there
there so much to do
Because time is moving ever so fast

The kettle boils and your tea still brews
Everything I know I learned from you
The song of birds the names of flowers
You graced me with your loving powers
So long ago since I last held your hand
A little boy with his wonderful Gran
Those long walks down by a lake shore
I will cherish and remember for evermore
So I am older now and the world is changed
Been tossed around and my life rearranged
I will always know such goodness starts
With the love you instilled in my heart

South Carolina
is where my heart is
it's where I grew up
it's where I raise my kids
South Carolina

Can't think of a place
that I would rather be
it's where I was born
it's always been home to me
South Carolina

Sometimes I need a change
My heart goes astray
I feel like taking off
I feel like getting away
but,my home town calls
then I'm back on my way
South Carolina

Here I Sit Looking Back Into Time, And How I See
Mama Raising Three Little Kids.

I Can Still See Her Working Until Her Hands
Would Bleed.

But Mama Don't You See, How Time
Is Changing Each And Everyday!

Now You Have Raised Me To Be
A Fine Young Man, And Mama I Still See You
Lifting Me When I Have Fallen And Hurt My Knee's
And How Your Gentle Touch Of A Hand Would
Ease The Pain.

But Now Mama That All Lay's In The Past
Mama I Love You So, But With Each New Day It Becomes
Harder To Show, But Everywhere I Go You Are Always In
My Heart And Soul!

Mama You Have Brought Me Into This World
And You Always Gave Me A Wonderful Home Filled
With All The Love And Joy, You Are Always Near
When I Need You The Most, Even Now As A Men
You Still Know How To Dry The Tears That
Drown The Sparkle From My Eyes!

And Mama I Know Through The Years There
Has Been Many Times I Have Hurt You And Made You Cry,
But In Your Heart You Have Always Found A Way To Forgive.

Because Mama Now I Know That Your More Then Just A Person
For You Are An Angel Sent From Our Lord Above, For There
Will Never Be A Mama Better Then You!

Do not be fooled by this silly fool’s grin
How my day went don’t know where to begin
Like hiding how hopeless I feel within
Please pour me a glass of tonic and gin

Unfold my cramped arms from across my chest
Been all day since I took a real deep breath
Work shakes me up get all fizzy when stressed
Sometimes my life is like dancing with death

At last I cross through the portal of home
It’s time to check my baggage at the door
Always good to hear a hearty ‘welcome’
Such simple greeting is hard to ignore

Not keeping apart two worlds is a sin
Where one leaves off let another begin

Have you got, just what it takes,
To pass lifes test of faith ?
The stakes are high, the pot is full,
Now judgement day is apon us all.

Countless failures may cross our way,
To try and lead us all astray,
But only those who persevere,
Obtain the dreams that they desire.

Faith is the path we have to take,
Love is the key that'll open the gate,
Positive thoughts in a heart of gold,
Ensures the dream can truely be yours.

One good family, is all it takes,
To save the worthy human race,
From falling from our Lord God's grace,
Before He decides, just who He takes.

When the mind, body and soul,
The gift He gave us all,
Are correctly used, and not abused,
Will truely ensure, our ultimate reward,
Ever lasting life, the dream of us all.

Making special presents
for Christmas this year.
Making it with love
to show you care.
Giving you my feelings
in each and every stitch.
Letting you know
you are on my mind
now and all the time.
Showing you the love
in this special way.
Hoping you love this
each day, appreciating
it in each and every way.
For this is only for you.
This is the true blue
meaning of Christmas
FAMILY
FRIENDS
love them to the end.

I finally have a few moments alone
here I spend them writing a poem on my phone.
Need to get out of here, I haven't been alone in weeks,
It's time to go off on my own and peace is what I seek.
This life I now live, I'm surrounded by stress,
weighed down by others disaster, it's a complete mess.
I'm just now getting my life back together, why unload on me
but misery always did love company and you're to selfish to see.
When will you open your eyes to the real world
atleast see your potential and be that special girl..
that I know you are..my sister
but right now a freaking blister.
It's called tough love and you need it now more than ever
if I keep picking you up, you'll not be clever.
I love you so much but you make me so mad
and when you're mean to my nephew, it makes me sad.
You have a son, it's time to be responsible,
stop procastinating, you know you are capable.
These are things we've said to your face,
and you push him off on others, don't respect their space.
I always wish you the best but wish you would see the light
just wondering when you lost your fight?
If it's your ex who broke you, ya gotta move on,
you're the one doubting yourself and he is gone.
I just don't know what else I can do,
I think for the rest, it's all up to you.

night is full of all demise as day is when our sun goes away,
as a baby life doth interest as a teenager i wish it died,
adulthood brings such surprise from boredom to the great highlight,
wisdom doth come my young friend with the sunset of the beach light,
with waves that settle ones mind as the thought of the mist that
will arise upon the oceans head,
the air that cleans our systems out and heals our body well being,
a move a job even friendly face of a stranger not known before could
make that change that helps us to grow,
mistakes interrupt our path but repair is due and near when we are free,
freedom comes with wisdom and mind and wisdom and mind comes with
growing up,
most off all a smile a day will help us handle our great growth and a good will will help us gain knowledge from one whom might know,
young and old we will survive and we will grow with age.
