Hello, welcome back! It's so good to see you again after a while.

So here is my attempt with the prompt - *cracking knucles*

You add warmth to my day,

Not the global warming kinda heat, but just enough thermal energy that makes my heart beats.

I have been astray, wandering to find a place to stay,

Then I found it, the peace within where strength and acceptance light the way.

@kindLemonade *plays rap music to make it more entertaining*

πŸ˜€ nice poem! Unfortunately poems aren’t any of my 7cups of tea, it is a bit hard to believe.

i am emo rex, was a teenie now an ex

I try my hardest to be kind, even when all those problems are floating around my mind

I strive to be the best, but it isn’t always a success

these poems have me in awe, so i would like to tag more

What magic makes you so relatable

Are you some kind of rare alien

Right when I am sad you walk in

Maybe you ignite the magic in me

Tonight I will forget that I was ever depressed

How about I help you whenever

You give me life and a reason to be better

To thank you, there are so many ways

The best way I know how is to love you

And show you that you're never alone

You are a gem, perfectly imperfect

You add warmth to my days

You add warmth to my days,
In so many different ways,
It's the kind of warmth that stays,
When the skies are darkened greys.
As the life around me frays.
This warmth, it never strays,
This is not simple praise,
You add warmth to ALL my days❣

You add warmth to my days,

But my days are already too hot.

Daylight chases the shadows,

Trying to look like something it's not.


I see right through you.


Knights of "fate",

Knights of "honor",

They all wear,

The cleanliest armor.


Just one chink oughta do...


It's not the darkness but light,

That's the element of surprise,

Just like the sun,

You stare long enough, you go blind.


I keep my eyes peeled but never look directly...


Warm days, warm days,

Let's all go out and play,

Get molded like clay,

Watch predator and prey,

Put too much food on my tray,

My kids eat it every day,

They say, they say.


Yeah, just cool it though,

Join me in the shade.

See the forest from the trees,

And how history and future are made.


You can't take the night from me,

I dream far too vividly.

You add warmth to my days,
to tell you how, there are only so many ways.

You have been the burning flame for me when it was cold,
In the lonely nights I miss your hold.

We will be snuggling and there will be no need of words, some day.
You'll only be adding to the silence and the warmth, in some way.

You add warmth to my days

Since the day I met you first,

You’ve never ceased to amaze..

With lovely little things you do,

You brighten up my days!

No less than a miracle you are,

Winning hearts with your mysterious ways.

You’re more than real sweetheart,

That is what your presence conveys.

You look at me as if I built the sky..

And make me smile with your amazing ways..

Filling up my heart when it all seems cold,

You add warmth to my days!

Sunniee, whatever you write is no less than a poetry already and your words sound like music to ears!!❀️ : ) So that makes it a complete song altogether! Just like *you*… @sunisshiningandsoareyou xD

(Now that’s repetition not a rhyme..

For you can’t be a poet all the time!! xD)

You add so much warmth wherever you go Sunniee!❀️ And no thankiees for that..just *warm hugs*πŸ€—

Aww aww aww *warmest of hugsss for cookie cloudieeee* πŸ₯ΊπŸ€—πŸ’–

(And I saw what you did you there lolπŸ˜‚)

Perhaps not a poet everytime,

But you tug at my heartstrings with each passing rhyme! πŸ˜›

And I'm willing to spend every single dime,

To make the love-bell in your heart do a loud chime,

All the time!

(The continuous sound might be nauseating so maybe not all the time but you get it lollll πŸ₯°)

You add warmth to my day, dear

I know that you don't understand

How much it means to have you near

or how beside me you always stand


When into the coldest of shadows I fall

It is always your love that burns so bright

That helps me through the dark gloomy wall

And saves me from the darkeness of night
