From the Editor..
I must first thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Without Him, I am NOTHING!!
Wow! Simply put, it has been a great pleasure working with Michael on his second book. I never imagined how fulfilling and enlightening this process would be. Please believe… this is a book that you can sit back, relax and take a ride down love’s lane. Whether it is a past, present or a future love, you will relate. He has poured his heart, soul and passion into his words. Feel free to hold on tight and embrace this journey of love with him.

I INTRODUCTION
Love, where should I start? We are all born within love, created from love and still we are clueless on how to give the perfect love. This day and age love and lust sometimes get confused or twisted. At times when we get it mixed up, some people believe in love at first sight. Hmmm… is it truth or fiction?
I believe there are three theories to love: physical, visual and emotional.
A physical love is only seeing and being only attracted to their appearance: the outer shell some would say.
A visual love is how you see yourself with someone before you get to know them: often seeing into the somewhat future.
An emotional love is being in love no matter what situation your relationship is in: whether it’s good or bad; seeing no wrong when things aren’t right; when becoming attached and while over shadowing your emotional stability of trust.
Sometimes love can bring you happiness and other times sadness. This book is strongly written on facts and events that have taken place in the past and present. My life is solely built upon my writings. I write what I see, hear, and feel. We all make mistakes and soon learn from them. Love isn’t a game or a toy that we can put to the side. It is a 24hr job that involves sacrifice and understanding. The two go hand and hand.
Now, take this journey with me into the mind of a poet. Read the stories and learn of the trials. After reading my book, hopefully you will gain an understanding of the true meaning of the word LOVE.

Happy
Just the two of us walking along A deserted beach Our minds wondering and thinking Beyond future weeks Its as if the stars are singing to You and me While looking back at past dreams That we have achieved We belong to love And together we can be happy
Making Love To You
Making love to you is like the picking Of fresh fruits The rarest in the world
Making love to you Is like, when you first learn to Tie your shoe Untied knots, no more hidden clues
Making love to you Is like The first day of spring When flowers are first blooming
Making love to you Is like Finding a secret room Filled with the sweet smell Of you
Making love to you Is like……………… Is like…………… Is like……….. There’s too many things to choose I just love making love To you And only you!
A Beautiful You
A beautiful you As beautiful as the sun and moon Strangely together in the afternoon As crazy as snow falling in mid-June Complicated as a humming birds fluttering tune As free as a honeybee flying over A flower before its bloom Slow as a ship sailing through a Summer monsoon A beautiful you As lovely as rain falling Flooding a deserts loom As wild as a waterfall falling too its doom A beautiful you………… A beautiful you…
“Remember the things you did to get them- for they will be the very same things to do to keep them”
Wind Chimes
You remind me of wind chimes As sexy as you want to be The melody of your smile Soothes my inner beast And your lips sparkle like the deepest blue sea I can’t pretend like I don’t notice thee The hint of your natural aroma Lures me And your laugh reminds me Of sweet summer days Your eyes remind me of rose petals Soft within their own color Your earth skin tone Clashes within mine, embracing Like lighting and thunder You remind me of wind chimes For your love is the taste of the sweetest honey
