I bought my girlfriend a gold rose for valentines day. It's an actual red rose dipped in 24k gold and its pretty cool. this is the poem that I also gave her along with it.

A rose is a rose by any other name
we all start as seeds we all start the same
through sands of time we discover our beauty
in purpose we find what is to be our duty
From the moment I saw you , true love I percieved
a connection of two a bridge had been weaved
On Valentines day this token I give
A rose dipped in gold forever it lives
A symbol of my love, A piece of my soul
you make me complete , the other half of my whole

many ? if it were many there would be way mor gun deaths. More people die of lung cancer so it should be the millions of lunatics wielding a cigarette that have no respect for life.

a revolver has 11 shots , semi automatics carry 10 in the clip and 1 in the chamber. yes guns kill as do knives and cars. it was broad daylight and it was a case of road rage . you asked how I would feel if I had killed him - thats what I was trying to do as he was trying to kill me. I had a concealed carry permit, my gun was registered to me and everything was legal on my end. I would have been prosecuted in the UK for defending myself ? remind me to NEVER go there. Guns are here and you will never get them off the street. all the laws in the world would not have kept that scumbag from getting a gun . you are right though , if I had not been carrying ,my family wouldnt have been worrying about me in the emergency room , they would have been making funeral arrangements.

I dont understand why you think that gun manufacturers should be held responsible because someone mis used their weapon? should drug companies be held responsible for drug addicts ? or beer makers be made accountable for alcoholics , both of which kill more people than guns every year. Or the king - should tobacco farmers be held responsible for every person that dies from lung cancer ?

God forbid I did miss and hit an innocent bystander would have been his fault for instituting the confrontation

in 1993 I wa shot in the stomach by a scumbag with an illeagle gun, Luckily I was carrying and I was able to defend myself , I hit him 11 times with .40 caliber S&W bullets fired from my Glock . I was hit once in the stomach with a .22 caliber bullet . I was 22 years old and had to wear a colostomy bage for 7 months as the bullet ruptured my intestine. If I had not been carrying and able to defend myself I wouldnt be here typing this. The scumbag lived and was sentenced to prison where he still is to this day.

the well armed mitlitia as as stated in the constitution is intended to defend ourselves AGAINST those same police and military designed to protect us . The colonists saw first hand how their own Government turned on them and wanted to be able to prevent that happeneing to the public in the future. When EVERY so called assault weapon is destroyed , I will gladly give mine up. As long as there is one other person out there with an AR-15 , I am gonna keep mine.

As Twangtown stated nothing can stop a lunatic from taking lives no matter how many laws you pass. during 9-11 the planes were taken over with box cutters , not guns. I ask where was the outcry to ban knives then?

You might be able to find someone better looking
Maybe he drives a big old fancy car
Dresses from head to toe in the latest fashion
But I know you and that’s just not who you are
He’ll give you a dozen roses on your birthday
Take you to a 5 star restaurant
Sprinkle your hands with gold and diamonds
But I know you and that’s just not what you want
You want someone to hold your hand
For no reason at all   
You want someone to kiss your lips
When the rain begins to fall
You want someone to dry your tears
And never say a word
Baby I’m here and your wish has been heard
You might find someone like a famous actor
He’ll take you to that red carpet premier
Take you out dancing to the latest night club
But I know you you’d be bored within a year
He’ll take you places you’ve only dreamed of
Rodeo Drive or some Carribean cruise
Get your star on Hollywood blvd
But I know you and you got better things to do
You want someone to hold your hand
For no reason at all
You want someone to kiss your lips
When the rain begins to fall
You want someone to dry your tears
And never say a word
Baby I’m here and your wish has been heard

Well I’m no actor and I’m not so good looking
And I sure as hell don’t drive no fancy car
Every day I spend with you is better than the one before
And I love you and I love who you are
Baby I’ll hold your hand
For no reason at all
And baby I’ll kiss your lips
When the rain begins to fall
I promise that I’ll dry your tears
And never say a word
Baby I’m here , baby I’m here

I bought the guitar after learning to play had been on my bucket list since I was a kid. I have much to learn but love to play. thanks again!

things have been tough these past few years
not enough smiles and too many tears
this aint the way it was supposed to be
your mom and me we couldnt get along
dont know who was right dont care who was wrong
theres just one thing that you got to believe

Im just a part time Dad with full time love
2 days a week just isnt enough
I miss your laugh and I miss your smiles
and every time I gotta take you home
I feel so empty I feel so alone
as I drive along , these empty miles
so I ask myself whats a part time Dad to do?
I'm missing you,I'm missing you

but the judge says I got to stay away
until its my turn for my 2 days
it just isnt fair , I did nothing wrong
as I sit and wonder where you are
I picked up my old Guitar
dried my tears and I wrote this song 

Im just a part time Dad with full time love
2 days a week just isnt enough
I miss your laugh and I miss your smiles
and every time I gotta take you home
I feel so empty I feel so alone
as I drive along , these empty miles
so I ask myself whats a part time Dad to do?
I'm missing you,I'm missing you

so my little boy and my little girl
make no mistake youre my whole world
youre my everything , me reason to be
as the years go by and my hair turns gray
my love for you will never fade away
there is just one thing that you gotta believe

Im just a part time Dad with full time love
2 days a week just isnt enough
I miss your laugh and I miss your smiles
and every time I gotta take you home
I feel so empty I feel so alone
as I drive along , these empty miles
so I ask myself whats a part time Dad to do?
I'm missing you,I'm missing you

try playing America's "a horse with no name it is very simple and the whole song is just 3 chords. Em , D and Em9 . Look the chords up on here if you dont already know them . The strumming pattern is also very simple DUDUDUDUD on the Em and DUU on the D thats the verse and the chorus is exactly the same but with the Em9 for DUDUDUDUD and back to the D for DUU. It may not be exactly as the original but it works for me. Good luck and dont let anyone let you stop what you enjoy

small hands and carpel tunnel syndrome in both hands has me hampered. I can only play for about 30 minutes at a time before my hands go numb.

A friend and I started writing this back in high school , was originaly done on piano. I only picked up the guitar 2 years ago.It was on my bucket list and after surviving prostate cancer I saw no reason to put that list off any longer. Well anyway the chords are simple E minor/D for the verse and C/D for the chorus.

yes, speaking to my girlfriend Denise. I stink at song writing. I can sing and play a little but when it comes to writing my own music I am lacking. I'll give it a try though

When I see you smile
There is nothing wrong
When I hear you laugh
My heart sings a song
Love was just a word
... Until you came along
There were days when I couldn't see the forest through the trees
And I thank God baby I'm down on my knees
For sending me an angel
When I had lost my way
Perfect just like a snowflake
That never could be stained
When I hold your hand
You hold onto my heart
I'm gonna love you forever
I knew this from the start
Two hearts become one
And never shall they part
