Letter to Karen (Mar 2002)
My Dearest Princess,
Do you truly know who you are? You are fantastic. I know that you know that already, but I just want to keep reminding you for the next 50
years...If that's Okay...and if it's not, I will do it anyhow! Hello!
You are incredible...and I know it. Okay, we will attempt to limit our
conversation this evening to about 30 mins. Is that a deal? My little
heart won't like it, but I have already told my tender heart that "Karen
will make up for it when she arrives. She will think of something...I don't know what...But she will make it worth whatever sacrifices that we have had to make...because she loves me and my little tender heart. And she truly knows by now that I love her!"
So, how is your day in the medical field going so far? I went to chapel and Sun School...also had communion...could not keep my mind on the sermon. Why? I don't think you have to ask why? You already know why! I prayed for forgiveness before taking communion. God knows where I am in life. He loves me unconditionally as He does you. We are His children.
You are so SPECIAL to me! I want to be with you every passing moment. I need you. Of course, you know that by some of our conversations. Read on...
I miss you so desperately,
I want to be near you and feel you ever so close to me.
I want to experience you!
I cannot fully explain it.
Even though, I am seldom "at a loss" for words,
No matter how I try to express myself in missing you...
The right words, logical words, rational words do not come easily.
This experience defies reason and deduction.
My head...and my little heart speak to me about you all the time.
You have looked into my soul
And you know how I feel about you!
You are a special jewel...a sparkling perfect white diamond.
You have given me hope, faith, and love...
Like a beacon in the night to a lonely ship!
I know it has only been a few days since I saw you,
But it feels like an eternity! Why?
Your absence has turned my life upside down. Why?
I want our lives to be woven together like the finest tapestry
Of the entire known world...the most exquisite embroidery of all time!
I see your smile.
I see your beautiful face.
I long to be with you!
You make my heart feel as big as the earth itself! Why?
You have changed my darkest night into the noonday.
Only you can fill this empty space in my tender heart! Why?
Every day without you is another day without my Princess! Why?
What am I to do? What am I to say?
Well, at least, since I met you, I'm not in a fog anymore.
And the consolation is: You will be in my arms again soon!
Let me attempt to explain it the way an "artist" would explain it.
Missing you is like "doing a painting"...in drab colors!
However, being with you is like experiencing
Every stroke of the brush on the canvas with bright illuminated colors!
The rainbow brush strokes seem to automatically come to life
...stand out...
To the multitudes who are looking on...
The artist experiences his dreams and visions
As he puts the finishing touches to his masterpiece! Then...
The sounds of your laughter are heard.
The smell of your perfume is in the air.
Your enveloping warm smile penetrates my deepest desire.
You have overwhelmed me with pure joy. Why?
My heart is racing. Now, I know how an artist feels!
Are you an artist? I think so!
Please hurry to me! I miss you!
Tommy

Princess,
If you are going to "doubt" anything, doubt your doubts. Fear is False Effects Appearing Real. They are not real. They only appear to be real. When you have a negative thought about us, erase it. Replace it with a positive thought.
For example, suppose the following thought comes into your brilliant artistic mind: "Tommy doesn't love me. He is only infatuated with me. Why should I believe him?"
Tell your mind this: "No, that is not true. I know he loves me because he tells me 15 times a day in e-mails, telephone calls, and cards thru the mail. I know he loves me because my heart tells me he does. His voice tells me he loves me. Therefore, negative thought...get out of my mind. Go somewhere else. I love Tommy and he loves me. Period!"
Love,
Tommy

Letter to Karen (Written March 2002)
My Darling Princess Karen,
I am so glad that you were kidding. Perhaps, with all the things going on in my life...two weddings for my children, Tony in the combat zone, meeting the dream of my life (that would be you)...Perhaps, my male ego is a little fragile right now.
Think about this for a moment: In the past, I did everything I could to bring happiness to my family. I provided everything for their comfort. I actually "spoiled" them...because that's just the way I am. So Darling, I apologize if my ego seems a little fragile…because it probably is at this time...if you get my drift.
With my "A" Type personality, I am a "pleaser". I want to please people,
especially those whom I love. The problem is: You can't please everybody.
Therefore, I have accepted more balance into my life. My philosophy now is... "SWSWSW"! Some will. Some won't. So what!
Some will accept my generosity. Some will accept my love. Some will accept my talents and abilities. Some will accept my advice. Some will accept my frailties, insecurities, and flaws. Some won't. So what. It does not change the real person that I am. I like me. My family loves me. I believe you love me. In my heart, I know you do!
Therefore, today is a good day...a great day...a marvelous day...an
incredible day...a romantic day...a day to love...a day to rejoice...a day to be happy...a day to excel...a day for my Princess to get ready for the adventure of her life!
I Love you,
Tommy

My Darling
My Darling
By Tommy
As I held you in my arms last night,
I ran my fingers through your soft silk hair.
We talked. We laughed. We kissed.
You smiled again as I kissed your eyes.
I said, "My Darling, to love you is to care.
To love you is to share.
As I love you, I feel like a millionaire.
Being with you is an answer to my prayer!
My love for you has no compare!"
We make special plans.
After all, I'm a military man.
We work together side by side.
You smile again with pride.
You will make a beautiful bride!
My Darling, our dreams are coming true.
I'm so glad I found you.
To love you is to know you.
I always want to encourage you.
Your smiles and words of praise
Always make my day.
As I take time to share with you...To listen to you...To care for you...My heart grows tender toward you
Like honey and Winnie-the-Pooh in a zoo.
Loving you is so special and romantic
With you in my arms, I'm less frantic.
I'm excited about being with you for the next 50 years!
With you as my partner, my lover, my friend,
I know that our love will forever blend.
We already have so many special moments and memories.
Will anyone ever comprehend?
Good things come to good people.
Sharing our lives and love, we will defend.
Love is the greatest of all.
Love never fails and never pretends.
I am learning the full meaning of caring,
Especially since meeting a beautiful woman named Karen!
My dreams are coming true
Since I met you!
Suddenly, I awake from my dream...
Only to find out that I had been asleep...loving you!

My April Love For You, My Lovely Karen
My April Love For You, My Lovely Karen
By Tommy
Your lips speak so softly with sweetness,
Your touch is as refreshing as a daffodil of the narcissus family in May.
I am lost in your enchantment.
My heart beats fast within my chest.
I think of you each morning and afternoon.
I dream of you each night.
I feel your incredible arms around me,
And cannot fully express my passionate delight!
Never have I fallen so head over hills...
But now, my love for you is so deep and intimate!
You really have a hold on my heart.
I am in your loving hands.
I have never felt this way before.
I see you in the clouds...and in the sky.
I see you in the wind as it blows softly by.
If I write your name in the sand,
The waves might wash it away.
But if I write your name in my heart,
It will be there forever and always!
Your words are my food...your breath is my wine!
You are such a beautiful woman...my beautiful woman.
As we grow older...together...
As we continue...to gracefully change with age...
One thing...will never change...
I will always keep falling in love with you over and over again!
I stand here today with the world as my witness.
I pledge to you my undying and everlasting love.
I will stand beside you as your partner.
I will stand before you as your protector.
I will stand behind you with comfort, solace, and encouragement!
You must spend the rest of your life with me because...
Our love is the greatest feeling.
Our love is like a thousand smiles...
Our love is like ten thousand songs.
Our love has tremendous emotion.
Our love keeps us strong.
Our love is from our hearts...
Our bodies...our souls…
As I love you, I sometimes lose control,
Especially, as I look into your incredible emerald green eyes!
So remember, I love you with all my heart.
It seems that I have poured my entire soul into you...
Right from the very start!
I love you deeply...I love you much.
I love your sweet small voice!
I love the way we touch...I love your warm smile
I love your kind and thoughtful ways
Of bringing much joy to me...And into my life!
I love you today...as I have from the very start.
And I'll love you forever with all of my heart!
You remind me of a red rose that screams in passion.
You remind me of a white rose that breathes heavily with love.
You remind me of a yellow rose that is as soft as the wings of a dove!
You remind me of a purple rose during the dew of Spring.
You remind me of a pink rose that is hot with desire!
You remind me of a blue rose that wants to be kissed and caressed.
Therefore, I will love you when you're happy...and when you're sad.
I will love you when you're good...If you will love me when I'm bad!
I will love you in the rain...and love you in the pain!
I will love you during our getaways, hideaways, and holidays...Always my
Love!

A Letter From Tommy, 3 Apr 03
A Letter From Tommy, 3 Apr 03
My Dearest Karen,
As you are there in Florida and I here in Virginia, let us try not to be sad. Your presence with me, I dearly miss, but you will be with me soon! As the Irish say, "May the road rise to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and may the rains fall soft upon your fields. Until we meet again, may God hold you in the hollow of His hand." You are always on my mind and never far from my heart!
Our journey through life together still has far to go. We have seen many forks in the road. Our paths will join once again in a few days. Know this...even though you can NOT feel me next to you, I am in your heart and you in mine. When you are not with me, the days pass so slowly. Know this...You are of great importance to me!
You are a woman of Australian descent. Your mother was a delicate, yet strong and graceful lady...as you are. By the time you read this letter, we will have been together for about short 14 months. It seems like only yesterday when I first looked into your refreshing emerald green eyes! I miss you everyday. I have never missed anyone like I miss you. Your return is greatly anticipated.
I know it's not easy for you to always be saying, "Hello...and then Goodbye." But we will get through this somehow! Do you really KNOW how much I love you? Do you really KNOW how much you mean to me? My heart belongs only to you, my Love and Princess! I love you and I always will.
Your Prince, Tommy

Lonely Teardrop
Lonely Teardrop
Written to Karen in Apr 2003
By Tommy
Somebody once said that roses are so red,
And violets are so blue.
What about this lonely teardrop,
That I get when I think of You?
Someone said the moon is for night,
And that Florida sunshine is for day!
But this lonely teardrop says,
"I love you...That's all that I can say."
We get along so great,
We have been together now for over a year.
You are always in my heart,
But this lonely teardrop appears when we are apart!
Our first sacred kiss was sealed with love!
From that moment on I knew
You were sent to me from above.
But when you're not in my arms, I get so blue!
Lonely Teardrop, please go away,
Karen will be with me any day!
Darling, you changed my whole life.
One day, you will be my lovely wife!
You are there in Lakeland,
I am here in cherry blossom land (DC)
The blossoms died the day you left,
And all that remains is one lonely teardrop!
"What's the point?" You asked.
The point is...My love for you has been unmasked.
You have my ring, my love, and my heart...
And all I have is one lonely teardrop!
I must be strong...I must be kind.
I must take courage...I must be gentle.
My fervent heart has a burning desire
To love you as passionate as flame and fire!
Lonely Teardrop, it won't be long.
When Karen returns, you will have to go,
Because the heavens know
That we will live on Love's Plateau.
Lonely Teardrop,
You must go.
Heaven knows
That Karen is my Princess Rose!

The Love That Lasts
The Love That Lasts
To Karen From Tommy
Some love lasts a lifetime.
Unfortunately, others do not.
True love lasts forever.
When love is incredible, there is no greater emotion!
Darling, what I feel for you is unforgettable and so incredible!
Sometimes, love is like playing a piano…
First, you must learn to play by the rules.
But sometimes, you must forget the rules…
And play from your heart.
As I reach up to hold a star
And sit by a burning fire,
Being with you is my greatest desire!
You always bring me lots of smiles…
Regardless of our travels and a long highway of many miles.
We all want to fall in love.
Love makes us feel completely alive.
Our every sense is heightened…
Our every emotion is enlightened…
We feel as if we are flying into the heavens…
The memories that we treasure
Are ours for the rest of our lives!
Our relationship of love is solid.
Sometimes, a love relationship can be like the sand
That is held in our hand.
If we open our hands fully, the sand remains with us.
If we attempt to close our hands
And squeeze too tightly…
The sand trickles through our fingers.
Our love relationship is open and honest…
Filled with respect and freedom for each other.
Our love will remain intact. Why?
Because we are not too possessive or wound too tight.
Our love is full of acceptance…Truly loving you has brought
New meaning into my life! We are NOT perfect persons.
However, I have learned to love you Not because you are a perfect person,
But by learning to see and love you as an imperfect person lovingly!
Does this make any sense? Loving you deeply gives me strength!
Being loved by you deeply gives me courage.
You have made me laugh again! Sometimes, love has no rhyme or reason.
It just is. Sometimes, the ones without reason last the longest.
We not only marry someone we can live with,
But we also marry the person who we cannot live without!

The Beauty of You!
The Beauty of You!
By Tommy
Knowing your beauty has brought me numerous gentle nights
And dreamy desires amid your perfume fragrances so right.
Your beauty reminds me of mountain berries, fresh flowing springs,
And fragrant orange blossoms as white as angels’ wings!
I have no more blue or lonely nights
Except when you’re not by my side with candles and low lights.
Frequently, I dream of your kisses and passionate love,
I whisper in your ear, “You are my sweet morning Dove.”
Refined classical and romantic music is in the air,
We look into each other’s eyes and smile because we don’t have a care!
Sometimes, the night air is heavy and intense,
Especially when I am dreaming of your beauty immense!
I promise you spicy and delectable adventures in life.
How I long for you to be my beautiful wife!
Your beauty is sweet, so special, and incredible,
Your aromatic fragrance and freshness are so unforgettable!
Your sensuous beauty is full of innocence and love,
Like orange blossoms and honey bees, we fit together like hand and glove!
My love and perception of you is pure,
I long to be with you because I know our love is secure!
The beauty of you has captured my tender heart,
I have loved you almost from the very start.
I yearn to be near you because you have brought me such happiness and bliss,
People wonder how could any love like this exist!
I know it does Baby…
And I don’t mean maybe,
I cannot see my life without you…You make it seem so right.
You will always be my Princess of charm and delight!
You make me smile, laugh, and feel so light.
The Beauty of You continues to excite, ignite, and inspires me to write!

Three Poems to Karen (13 Feb 03)
Put Your Sweet Lips A Little Closer To Mine
Written 13 Feb 2003 to Karen By Tommy
When I think of your luscious body so close to mine,
It makes me more refreshed than sweet strawberry wine.
You are my sweet lady so refined,
Our passionate embrace is so divine.
You are heaven to me…and are always on my mind.
I remember your elegant kisses near the castle on the Rhine.
Your seductive touch gives me chills down my spine!
You are sweet, sexy, sensual, and delightful all the time.
As you put your sweet lips a little closer to mine,
It feels like hot liquid fire in my blood line.
I do believe that your beautiful human design
Came straight from the Heavenly Vine.
Yes, I get impatient sometimes,
But you certainly know that I would walk the line…
Any time to experience such an intoxicating feeling of your love so fine.
Do I live in a fantasy world of thine?
Let’s talk about satin sheets, rose petals, and a can of whip cream on cloud nine!
As you put your sweet lips a little closer to mine.
Your seductive kisses and warm hugs combine
And seem to say to me, “Sweet Love, come and dine”!
Let us experience a perfumed candle light and more wine.
My heart beats ever so fast, but I do not whine.
My passion for you is from the Divine.
As you put your sweet lips a little closer to mine!
I Know You Are There!
By Tommy
I can smell the sweet fragrance in your hair,
Especially when I run my fingers through it as you are aware!
The warmth of your body feels like honey.
It makes my heart feel sunny!
I can see the sparkle in your eyes.
They are emerald green and so alive.
I wish I could honestly sing,
I would serenade you and give you another ring.
Your voice is soft when you speak to me,
I get so excited…It’s like London “High” tea!
Herrod’s is probably the place to be!
We have both come a long ways from Tennessee!
Sometimes, your kisses taste like strawberry jam…
As I kiss you slowly and passionately…as a lion, not a lamb!
I know this is not a dream
Because we both generate too much steam! The fire within us is more than a flameAs passion ignites our human frames.
In the night, I hear myself whisper your name.
Our lives are much more than any game.
My desire for you will never grow old, I proclaim!I lay my head upon your bosom fair,
And I feel the incredible love that is in the air!Your love intoxicates me like sweet wine divine,
As we so elegantly dine and I proclaim you are mine!
I love you…Tommy
I Feel You In My Arms Again!
By Tommy
I love the way your hands softly caress my back.
You make me melt like butter in the Lakeland sun.
With your arms around me, my every nerve is tingling! Why, you asked? Because I need you.
As you so gently wrap your arms around me…
And softly kiss my forehead,
You inevitably send chills down my spine again…
What would I do without you, my sweet love from Lakeland?
I can’t help myself.
I softly kiss your ruby sweet lips,
And run my fingers through your blonde hair.
I caress your and draw your body closer to mine!
Incredible excitement is in the air…
And much anticipation!
Our eyes meet…while all the time,
We know that our flames of rhapsody will never be extinguished.
As I Feel You in My Arms Again,
Our hearts begin pounding even louder…
Our lips meet like bees on honey.
We are now wide awake as bright an Easter Bunny.
Our love and passion increases…
Our souls ignite!
I look into your eyes and…
Know that I have been to Heaven and back!
Written 13 Feb 2003 to Karen By Tommy
When I think of your luscious body so close to mine,
It makes me more refreshed than sweet strawberry wine.
You are my sweet lady so refined,
Our passionate embrace is so divine.
You are heaven to me…and are always on my mind.
I remember your elegant kisses near the castle on the Rhine.
Your seductive touch gives me chills down my spine!
You are sweet, sexy, sensual, and delightful all the time.
As you put your sweet lips a little closer to mine,
It feels like hot liquid fire in my blood line.

THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE FUTURE
THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE FUTURE
By Tommy Franks
The future looks bright ahead;
No more sorrow...no more dread,
No more times of being misled,
Truth and Life will reign instead.
He took all the pains, hurts, and agonies of the past
And rolled them into a large Shepherd's bag.
After turning them into nothing but ash,
He threw them into the sea with a large splash.
Today is a brand new day with brightness!
Will there be anymore excuses for the plight?
Will there be any darkness in the night?
No...only uprightness, excitement, and sunlight.
The future looks bright ahead
Because one tremendous day, there was BLOOD shed.
As someone once said, it's like an eternal scarlet thread
Has forever brought us together to the King's table all spread!

My Darling,
I wrote you a card, sealed it with my wet, passionate lips, carried it to the mail box in my masculine hands, and mailed it this morning. I know you are sleeping this very hour. I wish I were there with you! I look on top of my chest-of-drawers and see your illustrious photos filled with your beauty. You hold my heart in the treasure of your heart. I look at your portraits. I re-read your cards. I try to remember the smell of your aromatic perfume. If you only knew what I am feeling at this moment...! My heart expands when I think of you! I can assure you my dearest Karen...you have not been out of my thoughts...hardly for a minute since you left on that jet airplane a few days ago! Hopefully, you know how much I love you...how I long to see you...pray for you...how much I will sacrifice (if need be) to marry you...to live with you forever after! I know that you feel the same way about me and this is truly wonderful! I love you incredibly!

My Angel Love Karen
My Angel Love Karen
Written By Tommy on 25 Apr 03 from Washington DC
I'm in heaven when I'm with you. Even though I'm a combat killer, I float
On clouds when I'm with you. All it takes is one small kiss...and I melt
Like butter in your arms. We have had some great experiences thus
Far...and will have a million more at least. I love you! I miss you!
I love the smell of your perfume...the way your soft blonde hair feels to my
Touch. When I hear classical music, I think of you. Your soft ruby red lips
Are so moist to my lips. Angel Love, I miss you.
When I go to sleep at night, I pretend that you are by my side.
When I awake, I pretend that you are with me!
I pretend that your tender arms are wrapped around me...
And you are whispering in my ear.
You bring me much happiness. I know that I will be with you soon.
Your beauty is greater than any star, moon, or sun.
We will be together soon and then the skies will no longer be gray.
Angel Love, I miss you and love you!
Angel, just the mention of your name
Takes away all my pain.
You remind me of a beautiful breeze
Blowing gently through the Lakeland trees.
Your calmness, softness, and elegant style
Always leave me warm with a smile.
Whenever I look into your eyes,
I see a beautiful woman who is my great prize!
My soul is free since I have met you,
Today, I am no longer despondent or blue.
I will treat you like a Princess and Queen...
Because you make me feel like a young man of sixteen.
You deserve the very best.
You are the treasure of my quest.
As an Angel, you are fulfilling my dreams...my hopes...my life.
You will make me very happy as my lovely wife!
Soon, we will be side by side,
And you will be my gorgeous bride!
I want to hold you in my arms at sunset
And talk about the way we met.
Our memories of one another are like precious gold,
Together, we may grow older...But never old.
So many of my dreams have come true.
With that said, I just want to say "Thank you".
Angel, I love you.

Darling,
Have I told you lately how important you are to me and how you make me feel?
You are indeed such a nice and wholesome person.
I need to tell you that more often.
You are so "Special" to me! You light up my life.
You make others feel special as well.
You are always smiling! Our Love is so real.
I am glad that you are sharing your life with me.
I am good with words, but sometimes my words do not describe you
To the fullest or do you complete justice.
You're so fine and you're mine! Wonderful!
Without you, I would be missing out on so much.
I care about you incredibly!
I love you,
Tommy

Note to Karen on 5 May 2003
Darling,
I just want to say, I love you forever and a day!
That is always.
I dream of walking with you on the sand and bay.
We will walk together come what may...
We will be happy and gay (joyous and jubilant together)...
You know what I mean.
Let's roll in the hay. It's a good, good day.
We could sing the song of the Blue-Jays today.
We will be together soon in the Month of May.
Some may say, "Nay"...But I say "Yea"!
I have fallen in love with the Princess of the X-ray!
Soon you will be by my side to stay.
It's important for me to convey
Three incredible words today...
"I love you"...forever and always!

Happy Mother's Day to Karen
Happy Mother's Day to Karen
Written 7 May 2003 By Tommy
With Mother's Day approaching,
I must tell you something.
I believe that you are a wonderful, incredible mother...
Because you not only love your children,
But you also show your love to them!
You have taught them values, principles, and respect.
You know I love red carnations,
Especially on Mother's Day.
I believe they signify the kind of sweetness
That you project on Mother's Day and every day throughout the year!
A red carnation means that you are alive
Among the living.
A pink carnation conveys that you are far away.
And well, you know what a white carnation means...
However, you will be around for at least another 50 years.
You are so lovely and lively...
Healthy and spirited at heart...
I love your affectionate and sexy smile.
I know you are a great mother,
You are also my incredible sweetheart.
Your laughter never seems to fade.
You never seem to tire.
Your incredible love sets my soul on fire.
You are my desire in whom I admire!
This Sunday is your special day...
Hopefully, you will not have to cook,
Even though you are the greatest cook around.
It's your day.
If I were there, we'd roll in the hay.
Please have a Happy and Beautiful Mother's Day!
And oh, by the way...I bought a toupee!
I'm kidding, I'm kidding!
But I do like to play.
For this Mother's Day,
I send you a multitude of hugs and kisses...
You are such a lovely, sweet smelling bouquet.
As I sit here remembering the times we have shared,
The good times are so numerous.
Our laughter so plentiful.
Some do not appreciate what they have until it's gone.
So I want you to know, my plans for you have not changed.
I plan to walk with you hand in hand throughout the land!
Happy Mother's Day!
You deserve the very best.
Do you understand that I really care?
Do you understand that I want to be with you always?
I need you now more than ever.
I know in my heart that we will soon be together.
Then we will talk and talk...
Walk and walk...
On every Lakeland sidewalk.
Love and laughter are in the air.
We have both waited so long for our special day,
So for now, have a sweet Mother's Day. I love you!

Love and Caring for Karen
Love and Caring for Karen
By Tommy Franks
For me (as a Big Bear) "Love and Caring" means something different,
Especially for a VIP named Karen!
Yes, I have many friends and family members.
Deep within the recesses of my heart.
In the past, it has been good to share with them often...
And to get some great advice or a listening and hearing ear.
I need to think things through occasionally,
And during those times, I do not want to be alone
While thinking on important issues!
At times, I must confront my deepest feelings
Before they become a warehouse of shattered dreams,
Unfulfilled hopes, or disillusioned aspirations.
This is where true "love and caring" comes into the big picture!
A family member may reaffirm the thoughts of my heart
And truly want what is best for me and what is to be!
But Karen is that special passionate friend
Who has discovered a loving way into my heart...
In which I thought was mine alone.
What do I do? What do I say?
Do I allow this "Princess" person to see...
To feel, to share, to passionately read my mind?
Or do I dispose of all my uncertainty
And all the emotions that I have ignored
For such a long, long time?
Or do I allow this Karen to be a part of my new perspective
That quietly settles down in the middle of our heart…
A special place called "Passionate love and caring"?

A Brand New Day Has Dawned!
A Brand New Day Has Dawned!
To Karen By Tommy Franks
To the two of us, the past may be just a dim distant star!
However, from henceforth, our universe will be so full of life...
Shining ever so passionately and brightly.
Why? Because you and I are stars because of whom we are!
Our memories together are so precious to our tender hearts.
We have touched each other like no one has ever done!
I love caressing your beautiful and elegant face and body,
Especially during the early morning...hearing the birds singing our songs.
The sun gently comes through our curtains,
And the morning air is so cool and refreshing
Until it takes our breath away!
We know that each day will be brighter as we continue our sweet love!
We eventually awaken in each other's arms.
We talk. We whisper. We giggle. We laugh. We have fun!
We know that we have traversed many mountains in our lives.
Now, it is time to relax...to enjoy the moments...
Especially, the special times we have together...born of the gentle breeze of warmth.
Today, we will play. We will dance. We will live. We will passionately love!

The SECRET of Loving You!
The SECRET of Loving You!
To Karen By Tommy
One day, long ago, I finally accepted
My limitations and shortcomings…
I found out that I was in fact a human being
Who had made a lot of mistakes many times in many ways!
That's when I began to realize that the acceptance
Of another’s love was what I so desperately needed to
Enrich and enhance my life in my own personal growth.
Yes, I began to see myself “in love” with
A very Special Princess without a lot of entangled distractions.
I began to let love grow inside my tender little heart!
I also began to trust, have faith in, and love another person
And express my true feelings in a very real and genuine way.
Our authentic feelings, tangible needs, and heartfelt
Boundaries were discussed.
In loving you, I realized that I had chosen a classy lady
In whom I admired and highly respected…
I will protect you and shelter you from any outside harm.
My apprehensions have now dissipated.
My consciousness of you and your beauty has risen to new heights.
My tender heart has opened so naturally for you and your love!
I must tell you…I believe that my love is deeper and more passionate
Than any man in whom you have ever met!
In my teddy bear heart, I do not think
That you will ever find a deeper and more mature love than mine.
My heart is now open to your eternal spring of love!
You have given new meaning to my enthusiastic life.
My Secret of Loving You is You, My Dear Princess!
You are different than any other woman on Planet Earth!
You are more SPECIAL than any other woman on Planet Earth!
God threw away the mold whenever He created you! I am glad!
You do not march by another’s drum!
You do things your way…and I like this about you!
The flow of your love fills my receptive and passionate heart!
As our hearts love one another,
We are still learning to appreciate the other…
We are still learning to communicate with the other…
We take nothing for granted or assumption…
Our Love resides because truth is expressed!
The SECRET to Loving You:
Truth, Respect, and Genuine Expression!
Darling, today…accept my love for you
As it is given and given often…
I truly know that you will always appreciate
My love for you because…
It is my precious, unconditional gift to you!
I know that you will continue to acknowledge my love daily.
Why? Because we both will always keep our love alive
For each other…loving passionately, loving fully,
Loving completely!
I promise to put no attachments ahead of you…
No needs ahead of you…I want our love to continuously grow!
My Dearest Princess, You are like a well of overflowing love…
Love radiates through you!
As you stand in front of the mirror,
Love reflects through every fiber of your beautiful body, spirit, and soul.
The SECRET of Loving You is You, My Dear Princess!
To Karen By Tommy
One day, long ago, I finally accepted
My limitations and shortcomings…
I found out that I was in fact a human being
Who had made a lot of mistakes many times in many ways!
That's when I began to realize that the acceptance
Of another’s love was what I so desperately needed to
Enrich and enhance my life in my own personal growth.
Yes, I began to see myself “in love” with
A very Special Princess without a lot of entangled distractions.
I began to let love grow inside my tender little heart!
I also began to trust, have faith in, and love another person
And express my true feelings in a very real and genuine way.
Our authentic feelings, tangible needs, and heartfelt
Boundaries were discussed.
In loving you, I realized that I had chosen a classy lady
In whom I admired and highly respected…
I will protect you and shelter you from any outside harm.
My apprehensions have now dissipated.
My consciousness of you and your beauty has risen to new heights.
My tender heart has opened so naturally for you and your love!
I must tell you…I believe that my love is deeper and more passionate
Than any man in whom you have ever met!
In my teddy bear heart, I do not think
That you will ever find a deeper and more mature love than mine.
My heart is now open to your eternal spring of love!
You have given new meaning to my enthusiastic life.
My Secret of Loving You is You, My Dear Princess!

One Day With You
One Day With You
To Karen From Tommy
Elvis was an incredible singer. He would be about 67 now, wouldn't he?
Anyway, he sang a song…"One Night With You" is all I been praying for.
Remember the song?
Well, I just wrote you a poem called:
"One Day With You, Karen".
I know you're gonna like it. I guarantee it! Hello!
“One Day With You, Karen”
By Tommy
When the sun comes up in the morning,
Guess who I want to have by my side?
Right on...You, my sweet Princess!
At the start of each day from henceforth,
I want you there with me...I will bring you coffee, etc. (Ha!)
That would be the start of a perfect day!
To open my brown eyes each morning
And see you there beside me will be so wonderful.
You have made my dreams come true,
And I have decided to let my heart rule.
One Day With You, My Lovely Karen
Is all it took for me to be hooked!
Just to start my day with you is absolutely incredible and FUN-tastic.
Looking at you wake up with those emerald green eyes,
And stretching your arms around...
And then holding me so tight...
Watching you smile as I kiss you passionately;
One Day With You makes everything seem so right!
One Day With You, Karen...
Knowing that when I go to work,
I have the thought of you waiting for me upon my return.
This makes my day!
Waiting, yet anticipating your love...
And your sweet lips upon mine!
To rush home to you and open the door...
Seeing you there before me dressed so elegantly most times times,
And yet others...with skimpy clothes on…
And motioning me to come over and hold you in my arms again!
This is all so breathtaking.
One Day plus 50 years...With You...is what I'm praying for!
When I look at you,
I feel such a tingle inside,
Especially, when I see the sparkle in your incredible green eyes!
Every part of my being reaches out to you...
To love you, caress you, hold you, and observe your beauty.
This is why I need One Day With You...everyday for the next 50 years!
It is not by coincidence, happenstance, or accident
That we lovingly and tenderly met.
Time, destiny, hope, and God brought us together.
Our time is getting better and better
As we spend it with one another...And most of all,
It is bringing us closer and closer together forever!
PS: When you love me, treat me tender and gentle…Promise me!
Because my heart is affectionate, warm, and loves you incredibly!

We Can Only Live One Day At A Time!
By Tommy
Today is here with a gentle breeze,
You are a tremendous part of this universe...not hidden from sight!
Today is here. May we be graced with various choices...
That perhaps, we never realized we had before.
Today is here. It is ours. Our dreams are not out of reach.
Today, our uncertainty will be transformed into courage.
Our curiosity will prevail.
We will explore deep places within our inner souls.
We will loudly speak truth and honesty.
We will not remain silent when injustice is near!
We will influence people and events.
The world will see our most cherished dreams materialize.
Our passions, dreams, and aspirations will come to pass.
Today is here. We have found the light.
We Can Only Live One Day At A Time.
We have many windows of opportunities!
We have an imagination. We have faith in ourselves.
We will create avenues of success in our lives.
We know today within the core of our being...
That the life we want is here for us,
And belongs to us through the Master Teacher…Christ.
No one can keep us from it...
Not today, Tomorrow or Ever!

Autumn 2004...To My Sweet Lover Karen
Autumn 2004
To My Sweet Lover Karen
By Tommy
The leaves are turning.
The weather is getting cooler.
The days are getting shorter.
Over two years ago, you gave my life a new start.My weaknesses…you turned into strengths.You have turned my bad times into good times.With you, the difficult moments have been easier to go through.You have turned my “down times” into “good times”!
Your sweet ruby red lips have kissed away my tears.Every time I needed you,
You were there by my side.You have taught me to be strong,And to be calmer…and to slow down…at least while eating!
You showed me how to let go…and move forward.
Old memories have been left behind.We now make plans together for the future as our love is refined! Every autumn gives ways to the winter,
Sometimes snow…sometimes rain.
You have taught my heart to forgive even more.And to love more passionately.
Through this journey, you have been with me every step of the way.You have never complained, even when it rained.
For your beauty and love, you have not asked for anything in return.You are my best friend, lover, companion, advisor, and faithful wife!
You do not judge me in anyway…
Even while on the highways.You are so caring, honest, and fun to be with.Your kisses are sweeter than red Australian wine.
You have loved me more with the passing of time.
Ever since we met, our love has grown a little each day!
When we married, we vowed to let nothing on this earth break us apart.
You are indeed the apple of my heart!
The longer I am with you…
The more I feel that we were destined to be together.
I love you more than mere words could ever say.My heart feels so light and full because you are such a sweet bouquet!
We are happy…delightful…and blessed with the love of each other.
What else matters?
Karen, my Darling, I love you!
Happy Autumn 2004.

My Love For You…Little Princess
To Karen From Your Tommy
I still remember the first day we met.
I can almost taste your sweet perfume.
Our eyes met and our hands touched,
And I gave you a little hug and a small kiss!
You reminded me of everything sweet in life!
The day was so fresh with your smile.
The Florida breeze seemed like spring.
The air was blowing through your beautiful blonde hair,
Yet none of mine, however!The Florida sun sparkled as I arrived at Kingsley Boulevard…
You had been waiting for me.
I had been lost for several minutes.
We finally met. You smiled. I smiled.
We went inside.
My tender heart danced because I had found romance!
There was not a cloud in the blue sky.
I was now flying high.
My teddy bear wings were soaring toward heaven.
It’s like you had been reserved just for me!
The warmth in your elegant smile…the green sparkle in your eyes,Your soft skin…and your sexy voice…
All had an impact on me that incredible day!
We laughed and talked and played.
Such excitement and comfort were in the newness of the moment.Soon, the words between us came so easily…
Sort of like a “Country and Western” song…
I’m kidding, I’m kidding!
The memory of our first day together,
I have played over and over again in my mind
At least a thousand times…Somehow, that day…I realized that “love” was in the air!
It had woven itself into the human fabric of my tender little heart!
And soon, I was falling in love with a Princess that I had just met!
I was soaring like an aero plane.I was floating like a white, fluffy, cumulus, high cloud.Suddenly, the earth looked smaller and brighter!
My feet were not touching the ground.My head…full of wavy hair…(Ha!) was enchanted with all these new feelings! I was flying high.
I was like a humming bird that was now free.
All my worries and cares seemed to disappear.
I was now a warm teddy bear who wanted
To wrap my arms around youAnd shield you from the harsh realities of the world… You were more than I had ever dreamed!
You had touched me deeply.
Sometimes, I can still see you…
In the red convertible…top down…radio on…
Your beautiful blonde hair just a blowing in the wind! Hello!Sometimes, it seemed as if you smiled for no reason…This was wonderful!
I needed to see you smile!
Eventually, we danced. Oh, how we did dance.
As we danced, something wonderful happened between us.
We fell in Love.We were now flying together!It was so natural.
It was so right!
Our fears dissipated.We became high on love!We had discovered our gold at the end of the rainbow.Our eyes met again and again!
Our love blossomed.Something was happening to us!
We then knew that we would never go backwards again.
We would go forward with our relationship!
We had found our precious pot of gold…each other!We were in Love at last.My Love For You, Little Princess,
Is “Always and Forever”!

Easter 2007
Easter 2007
To Karen From Tommy
The cold dark clouds of winter are behind us.
The fresh smell of spring flowers and gentle breezes are before us.
The glittering sunshine brings forth hope…the resurrection hope.As we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
We also celebrate life with each other,
Especially new beginnings that are all around us.
Easter with Karen awakens so many emotions within me.I reflect on the first Easter that we knew each other.
You are such a beautiful bright star that has brought me hope.
You are so warm and tender with so much charm.
I couldn’t help myself.
I fell in love with you!
This Easter as we rejoice and celebrate this special event together,
I will not forget that God created you for me and once again…
Gave me faith, hope, and love! As I look into your emerald green eyes,
I thank Him everyday for the sunshine that you bring to me.
The Easter lilies, bunny rabbits, Easter eggs, fresh flowers, palm trees…
Remind me that everyday is Easter with you. I love you!

I LOVE YOU BECAUSE
YOU ARE THE FLAME IN MY HEART.
I LOVE YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE A GOD GIVEN WORK OF ART.
TIMES and SEASONS MAY PASS,
BUT MY LOVE FOR YOU WILL NEVER PART.
I HAVE LOVED YOU FROM THE VERY START

THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE FUTURE
By Tom Franks
The future looks bright ahead;
No more sorrow...no more dread,
No more times of being misled,
Truth and Life will reign instead.
He took all the pains, hurts, and agonies of the past
And rolled them into a large Shepherd's bag.
After turning them into nothing but ash,
He threw them into the sea with a large splash.
Today is a brand new day with brightness!
Will there be anymore excuses for the plight?
Will there be any darkness in the night?
No...only uprightness, excitement, and sunlight.
The future looks bright ahead
Because one tremendous day, there was BLOOD shed.
As someone once said, it's like an eternal scarlet thread
Has forever brought us together to the King's table all spread!

The One Who Passionately Loves You!
The One Who Passionately Loves You!
To Karen By Tommy
Once upon a time,
There lived a beautiful green-eyed woman…
With whom I fell in love.
I knew that I would go anywhere
In the whole wide world to be with this angelic being!
I'd cross the deepest ocean if need be,
I’d go to the highest mountain if necessary,
I’d cross any desert if required.
Suddenly, the love gates opened!
Passion was at our door.
Our hearts wanted more.
This, we could not ignore!
The candles were brightly burning.
A wonderful sweet, aromatic fragrance was in the air.
We were so close to one another. The temperature suddenly changed in the room…
From cool to warm to hot.
Your incredible green eyes got my undivided attention!
The evening was young.
The moon was bright.
Our lips were hot.
Passion and love were closer than before!
Discovering your soft tender touch galore…
Was far better than being in a chocolate store!
That night, I became passionately in love with you! Now, I feel like I’m in the flowers of clover.
My passion for you boils over.
I’m so in love with such a beautiful woman!
You have stolen my tender heart,
I know that we will never part.
Our passion has been steamy from the very start.
Our lives have purpose and meaning to impart.
The sound of laughter from your eyes…
Is much better than a million dollar prize!
Your soft, sexy whispers make my temperature rise…
Which often lead right back to the prize of your emerald green eyes.

With whom I fell in love.
I knew that I would go anywhere
In the whole wide world to be with this angelic being!
I'd cross the deepest ocean if need be,
I’d go to the highest mountain if necessary,
I’d cross any desert if required.
Suddenly, the love gates opened!
Passion was at our door.
Our hearts wanted more.
This, we could not ignore!
The candles were brightly burning.
A wonderful sweet, aromatic fragrance was in the air.
We were so close to one another. The temperature suddenly changed in the room…
From cool to warm to hot.
Your incredible green eyes got my undivided attention!
The evening was young.
The moon was bright.
Our lips were hot.
Passion and love were closer than before!
Discovering your soft tender touch galore…
Was far better than being in a chocolate store!
That night, I became passionately in love with you! Now, I feel like I’m in the flowers of clover.
My passion for you boils over.
I’m so in love with such a beautiful woman!
You have stolen my tender heart,
I know that we will never part.
Our passion has been steamy from the very start.
Our lives have purpose and meaning to impart.
The sound of laughter from your eyes…
Is much better than a million dollar prize!
Your soft, sexy whispers make my temperature rise…
Which often lead right back to the prize of your emerald green eyes.
Love and Respect
Love and Respect
By Tommy
Love is a two way street.
When we finally accept someone
Even with all our preconceived ideas and limitations…That's when we accept them for who they are.
We validate them,
Authenticate them,
Confirm them,
Endorse them...no matter what!The pure love of another is based on trust…simple trust.We must grow and love from within.We must trust and love enoughTo express authentically our true and honest feelings
As well as our needs.
We need to choose someone who will respect us,And help us…And listen to us! Our heart needs to open naturally,
Not in an artificial setting.Then true love turns into deep love.
We do not need to mold ourselvesTo suit the tastes of the other. This is not true love.
However, we need to respect the other at all times.
From the heart of one lover to the other,We must learn to relate our feelings to each other.
Love resides passionately where truth is expressed withoutThe fear of retribution…We must accept love whenever it is given.Love is a precious gift.We must appreciate it as such and fully acknowledge it. We must and we shall keep our love alive.
We will love completely and truthfully!We will confess our shortcomings!
We do have flaws…This is true and no lie.
However, our love will supercede these frailties.
The love of God passes through your being…And radiates in our lives because we are alive!
We are filled with love, forgiveness, confidence, and humanity!

Falling In Love With You
Falling In Love With You
Written to Karen…By Tommy
Once upon a time in Lakeland with you,
I stood beside you overlooking the lake so blue.
I looked down and saw our reflection of two…
On the clear water with such a panoramic view!
At that moment, I knew it would be only you!
I was so captivated by your beauty so true!
I closed my eyes, but you remained in my mind like glue.
My heart was swept away like a run-away canoe!Your love has captivated me like two bears in a zoo.
Now my journey of love is way past due…
I feel like a big caribou or perhaps a kangaroo
That have met for the first time at a wonderful point of rendezvous.
The sun and moon now glisten and remind me of the beauty of Oahu.
Your incredible beauty reflects your love through and through,
Because you have captured my tender little heart like Winnie the Pooh!
Your beauty has set my blazing heart on fire like a hot barbecue!
“I’m raging out of control”, says who?
Is it because I have been quenched by your kisses and tenderness too?
Your lips hold me captivated like exquisite bars of bamboo.
Your embrace takes my breath away as we travel on Love Avenue!
Sleep is so sweet now as I dream of you.
My thoughts of you are pure, warm, and like the morning dew.
With you, I will never be alone, even in Timbuktu.
Your dreams are my dreams…Oh, I do love you!
Every time I see you…every time I hold you,Every time I kiss you…Every time I whisper to you,
My heart races like the horses in Peru.
You have turned me into a wild stallion with golden horseshoes!
My love for you is way past due! What am I to do?
I’m falling in love with Karen…so fresh and anew.
