A Valentine for the World.

For those who are lonely and deep in despair
With no one to love them and no one to care,
As you gaze from your window, watch lovers go by
And turn back with longing, a tear in your eye.

I wish you Love.

For the ones that seek love of a different kind
Because you are different not of the same kind
Be proud, hold your head up and never deny
The right to be loved, though others ask why?

I wish you love and understanding.

To those with health problems that traps you inside.
Whether physical or mental you have the same pride.
To be loved as you are, not pitied or scorned
There's life in you yet, you shouldn't be mourned.

I wish you love and friendship.

For those that are elderly and feel cast away
Whether in your own home or just have to stay,
In homes where you're treated with little respect,
You still need some loving you are no reject.

I wish you comfort and love.

As a child you were broken abused and lost faith
Those that should have mattered made you a lost waif,
You deserve to be loved you have paid your own price
Now embrace you are special, don't be a sacrifice.

I wish you peace, joy and love.

You're a child that's lost all your family and kin
Alone and afraid where can you begin?
To start once again when life seems so bleak,
There will be a new family, a new life to seek.

I wish you healing and love.

There are those with such problems they don't stand a chance,
Their life is planned out for them, no place for romance,
The mentally challenged who cannot live alone
No place for a family, children and home.

I wish you such love as you can find.

From the ravages of war and religious doctrine,
There are always the people, who come in-between,
Victims of hatred from both sides of the fence
Forsaken and alone, they have no defence.

We will love you and support your right to live.

Do you feel you are ugly, too fat or too thin?
Do you yearn for a lover, a place to begin?
To accept who you are, that person of grace,
Beauty lies inside not just on the face. .

Love yourself and you WILL find love.

There are all kinds of love and you have it within,
To give and receive it and so you begin,
Whether personal or worldwide love changes for good,
As we aspire to be, so we become understood.

Give love and it will return to you.

So what do YOU wish for, I hear you all say?
A lover, a husband, beside you all the way.
I am rich in my blessings for now I can see
Just all that I hope for and who I should be.

My parents have gone but I bless them each day
They taught me my values and this I can say.
Love I have tasted and I have no regret
Moments of pleasure I will never forget.

Each life I have touched even though it was brief
Has been paid back threefold and confirms my belief,
That love is not squandered when it's given free
As I give to you dear friends, so you give back to me.

When sending your cards to those you hold dear,
Remember lives broken by hatred or fear.
And make this a day to spread love far and wide
We are of God's people and on the same side.

Peace, love and happiness.
Lisa.
