Jon M. Nelson Poems

As we journey through our lives,
We all take separate paths.
Sometimes they're filled with sorrow,
Other times they're full of laughs.
...

Once again, it's that time of year,
When the world should be full of cheer.
This is the time for peace and love,
As the angels watch from up above.
...

You can't expect me to be something I'm not,
This is who I am and this is what you've got.
I won't pretend to be someone else's dream,
So that I can help with your self-esteem.
...

As the bullets were flying overhead,
I knew any moment I could be dead.
When the bombs exploded all around,
I stayed as low as possible to the ground.
...

The soldier gives the right to bear arms,
By carrying a weapon of his own in War.
The soldier keeps us all safe from harm,
By defending us on a foreign shore.
...

Always follow your dreams,
Don't let them fade away.
If you lose sight of your goal,
It will haunt you some day.
...

My love is still just as strong for you,
As it was on the day that we said, 'I Do'.
And my love for you continues to grow,
And I try every day to let you know.
...

We're all unique and different,
That's what makes us who we are.
We all have a talent or gift,
That will someday take us far.
...

You cannot find the rainbow,
Without waiting out the storm.
If you suffer the blizzard,
You'll appreciate the warm.
...

I Thought I had found love,
In so many times before.
Until the day I found you,
Now I could not ask for more.
...
