View Article  Melody Pond Is River Song
This is the poem that was featured in the episode of Doctor Who, where we learn that River Song is actually Melody Pond, daughter of Amy Pond and Rory Williams!

Demons Run When A Good Man Goes To War

Demons run when a good man goes to war.
Night will fall and drown the sun,
When a good man goes to war.
Friendship dies and true love dies
Night will fall and the dark will rise.
When a good man goes to war.
Demons run but count the cost,
The battle is won, but the child is lost
When a good man goes to war.

View Article  Welcome to Spring And The Wedding Season Hots Up
Hello one and all.

Isn't it just positively joyful to have lighter evenings and glorious weather creeping in. Certainly makes you feel great to be alive and seems to put everyone in the mood for love! I love the Spring!
Not only that, but the wedding season is now officially in full flow; not least with the wedding of HRH Prince William of Wales to Catherine Middleton imminently upon us.

Wedding poems are some of my very favourite poetry commissions. To have words that I have written, involved in someone's big day, is a great honour. These words form part of the cherished memories that will last an entire lifetime.

And I don't know how you feel when you are at weddings, but I find myself incredibly emotional and listening intently to everything that is said. The right wedding poem has the power to make your guests sob and smile in equal measure.
And once over it would have been a case of asking your friends what readings they had, or making a selection from options given to you by your celebrant or registrar, but now you can buy your own custom wedding poem, based entirely on your relationship and your feelings.

So whether you are a Bride or Groom wanting to enhance your wedding day with a custom wedding poem, or a guest looking for a special and unique gift, then visit iwantapoem.co.uk and order your poem today!
View Article  Personalised Valentine's Poems
With it fast approaching Valentine's day, now is the time to be thinking about the perfect gift for your loved one. Perhaps you like the idea of a poem for him or her, but just can't find one that suits you and says all you want to say.
Your next step, might be to have a go at writing one yourself - but if you would rather not write it yourself, then you have come to the right place.
Here at iwantapoem.co.uk, I can take your feelings, words and emotions and turn them into a literal work of art. You may have an idea of how you wish to present your poem, and in this case, I can provide just the poem by email.
Alternatively, you may wish to consider purchasing your personalised printed as a bespoke work of art.
I can do whatever works best for you!

So don't be shy, and tell your Valentine exactly what they mean to you - you can even include a clue to who you are, if you are being traditional and sending your Valentine anonymously!

So whatever your Valentine's poetry needs, contact Amy at iwantapoem.co.uk to get the ball rolling! Last order date for framed and printed poetry for Valentine's day is the 27th of January; this is to allow plenty of time for the poetry and printing process.
For a personalised poem by email only, last order date for receipt by Valentine's day is the 11th of February
View Article  Happy New Year 2011
Happy New Year one and all. 2010 was an amazing year for me, both personally and professionally and I have no doubt whatsoever, that that was just laying the foundations for an astounding 2011. Here's to a brilliant year for us all!
I would like to take a moment to thank everyone who has supported me and iwantapoem.co.uk  over the last three years, as without you, I wouldn't be in the position I am today, doing something I love so much.
So thank you sincerely, from the bottom of my heart.
Christmas saw a great variety of personalised poetry requests coming in, but I would have to say my very favourite, was for a young lady who wanted to express her love for her partner after he proposed on Christmas day itself!
Being trusted with such personal feelings and emotions is a huge privilege and one which I will never take for granted, but will be forever grateful to have had the opportunity to enhace!

So if you want a poem, then please do not hesitate to submit your order today; I will look forward to working with  you!

View Article  X Factor Introduction 2010 Season
X Factor Begins 21st August 2010

Thousands apply,
Each with a dream;
To be crowned X Factor winner
On our TV screens.

The 2010 season
Has officially come
As Disco Inferno
Fills the auditorium.

First act goes through;
Could this be his time?
He was soon overshadowed
By Walking On Sunshine.

The usual suspects
Come along for their auditions
Some trying to make it their own
With unusual renditions.

Some came as duos
But ended up singing alone
And thanks to friendly support
Didn't end up going home.

I must say I preferred the auditions
When done in a room
Alone with the judges
And without auto tune.

But with ad breaks galore
And sparkling white smiles;
The X Factor does it for us all
With it's reality-ish televisual style.

Relied on each Saturday
To help us get merry
Judged in Glasgow by Louis and Simon
Along with Cheryl and Geri.

A brand new baby, Ethan,
Has kept us from Miss Minogue
But it will be great to see her back
A little further down this road.

There's tears and there is happiness
And tons of crowd support.
I think that this new season
May be even better than I thought.

It looks set to be excellent
For entertainment each week.
Thanks for coming back X Factor;
We're in for a real treat!

Techno Romance Love App - A Poem


In the beginning, it started with a txt
But before very long, talk turns to s*e*x.
First you have to find yourself a suitable gal or chap
Then enter their details in your phone and find a compatible app.

There's the app to be charmed, there's an app to be loved;
There's the app to make sure that you are complimented enough
There's an app to fill your life with the most sensational foods.
And of course your clever smart phone, knows how to get you in the mood!

How confident you feel, basking in romantic success;
You learned the basics of texting and moved onto MMS.
You've learnt that staying on top means dedication never fails;
My word, where would we all be now, without our push emails?

So once it's all over, and you've had your delivery report
You reflect on the smart karma sutra you've just been taught.
At one with technology, you feel blissfully merry;
What does it for you? Android, iPhone or Blackberry?

Eastenders Danny's Poem


This is the poem that Danny in Eastenders pretended to have written so that he did not have to show Roxy he had, in fact, been writing down the security numbers for her safe:

Once I was lost
Now I'm found
I'm not just another face in the crowd.

Now I have a family of my very own.
A place I call love;
A place I call home.

Now although this technically wasn't written with loving feelings in mind, it does show what well placed words, verses and poems can do. Roxy instantly told Danny he was sweet and gave him a family heirloom for his troubles.

Poetry is springing up in all forms of media; from soaps and films to adverts on the television and even on product packaging.

If you liked the sentiment of Danny from Eastenders poem and you would like to have a special, personalised poem written for a family member of yours, then please visit iwantapoem.co.uk - personalised poems for all occasions.
