Cheers To Love
The world must become a much better place
Where more people dwell with a smile on their face
Living together in kinship and peace
A world full of hope where joys never cease.

About Beryl Edmonds
My interest and love of poetry began at school, when I was fourteen years of age. The class were given the project of writing an anthology of verse, using our own poetry and designing the cover for our book.
I really enjoyed the project and still have the book I made.
Poetry has remained a lifelong hobby, I enjoy reading and writing poems to this very day.
As poets we may not have a stake
in the Hall of Fame
Or not even Poet Laureate
put beside our name
But there's one thing tho' all poets know
that is for certain
Poetry's in the blood since life begun
till close of curtain.

Never Again
It's time to embrace every culture,

One flock, one shepherd, one fold
Whatever our race, hue or faith
We're all made from the same mould. -

Igniting a flame in curious minds

Quotes by Beryl Edmonds
Love is gentle,
love is kind.
Love opens your heart
and brings peace of mind.
Love gladdens your world.
Love raises the soul.
Love makes everything special.
Love makes you feel whole.
Like a butterfly in flight,
you drifted off to paradise.
A journey to the rainbow's end,
leaving broken hearts to mend.

The poem is beautiful. Only love can put a broken heart back together. May the love you two have found last forever and ever.
A wonderful poem by Langston Hughes, some dreams drift off with the morning mist, others come through if one persists.....
A dream differed is a dream put on hold
until the time comes for plans to unfold
Keep wishing upon a star in the sky
dreams really do come true, by and by.

This poem truly moved me. I am waiting for my husband to come home from hospital. He has been there for four weeks now and is still in intensive care. He was admitted with sepsis, and so much has gone wrong, it's unbelievable. There's so much I want to tell him, and I don't know if I will ever get the chance. If only!
Brother John, though it must hurt so much that you and the love of your life had to part, keep this thought in your heart, the day will come when you and your wife will meet in heaven and happily re-unite... Sis Beryl
Very moving, brother John. May your memories live on and on... Sis Beryl
