What is more romantic than a love poem that was written just for you? There is no better way of expressing romance than putting a touch of art to it and rhyming words musically just to let your love know that he/she means the world to you and that you are glad to be sharing your lifetime together. That is why here on my WonderfulList blog, I am determined to help you say what you want to say best from my collection of the best romantic love poems.
I have always loved you, I always will.
loved you yesterday, love you still.
--------------------------------------
If you ask me how long will I love you,
I just have one thing to say,
past present and future,
and each and every day.
--------------------------------------
My gift to you is my love
Given from deep within my heart
It is the best I have to offer
And its yours until death do us apart
--------------------------------------
Soft Valentine kisses.
Sweet Valentine wishes.
White chocolate covered dream.
You were made just for me.
Melting fast on snow or sand.
We are hand in hand.
Love’s unspoken pure bliss.
Dreams are made of this.
As we dance.
Starlight captures our romance.
Fire red and blazing.
Moon jealous and gazing.
We are one and we say…
Happy Valentine’s Day!

Drink to me, only, with thine eyes,
And I will pledge with mine;
Or leave a kisse but in the cup,
And Ile not look for wine.
The thirst, that from the soule doth rise,
Doth aske a drink divine:
But might I of Jove’s Nectar sup,
I would not change for thine.
I sent thee, late, a rosie wreath,
Not so much honoring thee,
As giving it a hope, that there
It could not withered be.
But thou thereon did’st onely breathe,
And sent’st it back to mee:
Since when it growes, and smells, I sweare,
Not of it selfe, but thee.
– By Robert Burns: The Poetry (1896)

Love Sonnet 18
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm’d;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.
– By William Shaespeare
--------------------------------------
How Do I Love Thee?
How Do I Love Thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being an ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of everyday’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints,- I love thee with the Breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life!- and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
– By Elizabeth Barret Browning

One Perfect Rose
A single flow’r he sent me, since we met,
All tenderly his messenger he chose;
Deep-hearted pure, with scented dew still wet – –
One perfect rose.
I know the language of the floweret.
My fragile leaves, it said, his heart enclose.
Love long has taken for his amulet
One perfect rose.
Why is it no one ever sent yet
One perfect limousine, do you suppose?
Ah no, it’s always just my luck to get
One perfect rose.
– By Dorothy Parker
--------------------------------------
Shall we compare our hearts to a garden –
with beautiful blooms, straggling weeds,
swooping birds and sunshine, rain –
and most importantly, seeds.
– By Grey Livingston
--------------------------------------
You’ve given me a reason
For smiling once again,
You’ve filled my life with peaceful dreams
and you’ve become my closest friend.
You’ve shared your heartfelt secrets
And your trust you’ve given me,
You showed me how to feel again
To laugh, and love, and see.
If life should end tomorrow
And from this world I should part,
I shall be forever young
For you have touched my heart
Valentines is near
Just wishing you were here
My debt to you, Belovèd,
Is one I cannot pay
In any coin of any realm
On any reckoning day.
– Jessie B. Rittenhouse
--------------------------------------
A song is no song ’til you sing it,
And love in your heart
Wasn’t put there to stay –
Love isn’t love
‘Til you give it away.
– By Oscar Hammerstein, Sound of Music, You Are Sixteen (Reprise)
--------------------------------------
Sad Winter now declines,
Each bird doth choose a mate;
This day’s Saint Valentine’s.
For that good bishop’s sake
Get up and let us see
What beauty it shall be
That Fortune us assigns.
– By Michael Drayton
--------------------------------------
Love is no respecter of age or practicality
Neither morality: unabashed
She enters where she will
Unheeding that her immortal fires
Burn up human hearts…
– Phillip Pulfrey, from Beyond Me
--------------------------------------
A hundred hearts would be too few
To carry all my love for you.
They who meet on an April night are forever lost in love,
if there’s moonlight all about and there’s no moon above.
Will you love me in December as you do in May,
Will you love me in the good old fashioned way?
When my hair has all turned gray,
Will you kiss me then and say,
That you love me in December as you do in May?
– James J. Walker
--------------------------------------
I need the starshine of your heavenly eyes,
After the day’s great sun.
– Charles Hanson Towne
--------------------------------------
I love you like crazy, baby
‘Cuz I’d go crazy without you.
– Pixie Foudre
--------------------------------------
It passed into thy lifelong regency.
– Gilbert Parker
--------------------------------------
In a silver chain
Of evening rain,
Unravelled from the tumbling main,
And threading the eye of a yellow star: –
So many times do I love again.
– Thomas Lovell Beddoes
--------------------------------------
Its a link between hearts, which never allows us to forget each other.
Romance is the glamour which turns the dust of everyday life into a golden haze.
– Elynor Glyn
--------------------------------------
Candle light, moon light, star light,
The brightest glow is from love light.
– Grey Livingston
--------------------------------------
To carry all my love for you.
Must, bid the Morn awake!
Sad Winter now declines,
Each bird doth choose a mate;
This day’s Saint Valentine’s.
– Michael Drayton
--------------------------------------
‘Tis all that I can say
It is my vision in the night,
My dreaming in the day.
– Thomas Hood
--------------------------------------
Soon his arm was around me tight.
When I first looked into his eyes,
I knew he was my winning prize.
--------------------------------------
I sit by my window & think of you,
A silent whisper, a silent tear,
oh my love,
I wish you were here
--------------------------------------
There is one sure thing I know
It is you my love, who stole my heart
Five years ago.
You fill my life with such delight
you are the ones who make it right
you make me smile when I am down
you always take away my frown
--------------------------------------
Or thrill me through and through,
And in my dreams there will never be
No other love but you.
--------------------------------------
I like the way you make me feel;
I like that what you say is true,
and I can only hope that this love is real
--------------------------------------
I feel like I could run for miles
I wish you could see
that you are the world to me
--------------------------------------
all my fears and doubts subside
You are my strength deep inside
you are the moon and I am the tide
--------------------------------------
Your lips are just as tasty,
Your smile still makes my heart melt,
Your touch is the best I’ve ever felt.
--------------------------------------
it will be to forever look into your eyes,
And be with you forever,
in a land with no good-byes.
--------------------------------------
that soul mate who is loving and kind
I know you are out there waiting for me
You are in my thoughts, you are in my dreams
--------------------------------------
we all want something we never had
is there a soul mate out there for me
that special person one day we will see
--------------------------------------
Let’s dig our feet into the sand.
Listen to the waves crash on the shore.
Let’s want a little and then yearn for more
--------------------------------------
your words makes me feel shine,
your sweetest word with me,
like you are always with me.
--------------------------------------
please never leave me and go.
I want to spend every moment with you,
and you know you want it too.
--------------------------------------
Freshened by the gentle rain
Like the Evening Star that glows,
Brightest of the starry train
Like a well arranged Bouquet,
Where the fairest flowers combine,
Odours rich and colors gay,
Is my own Sweet Valentine
--------------------------------------
for one lone soul another lonely soul
each choosing each through all the weary hours
and meeting strangely at one sudden goal.
Then blend they, like green leaves with golden flowers,
Into one beautiful and perfect whole;
And life’s long night is ended, and the way
Lies open onward to eternal day.
--------------------------------------
within my heart
that only you can fill.
For you had my love
right from the start
and I know you always will.
Happy Valentine’s Day

A Valentine’s Day Poem of Love
Where do I begin when I want to tell you how I really feel?
I know that I do not have the words or the wisdom to express what you mean to me.
All I can do is hope and pray that these words
Will help you realize why I am so sure our love was destined to last through eternity.
Feelings of blissful, lasting joy race through my mind
Whenever my thoughts turn to you, my dearest darling, and the love that we share.
From the very first moment we met
There was an energy and electricity that seemed to surge through the air.
My innermost longings could be easily seen and
I could see these feelings being echoed in your own eyes and face.
And when my unspoken desire to be held was whispered by my heart
It was quickly answered with your first tender, romantic embrace.
I have dreamed of you for years my love
And I knew one day we would find each other no matter what obstacles might be standing in our way.
Now that we have miraculously discovered each other
The world is a canvas upon which we paint pictures of love and happiness grows each and every day.
Mere words seem far too inadequate
To describe the dizzying, wonderful emotions that sweep through my mind, my body and my soul.
Now my life is far richer and rewarding than I had ever imagined and
With you at my side I fear nothing because you will shelter and protect me from a world that can be unloving and cold.
If I could truly tell you what I feel in my heart
You would hear words that are far more beautiful and magical than those ever written in any poem or rhyme.
My darling, my lover, my life please know
How deeply I truly love and care for you, the person you are right now, at this very moment in space and time.
