Hi! I’m Joanna Fuchs. I’ve written more than 900 original greeting card
poems and rhymes for all occasions, traditional, sentimental, good
old-fashioned poetry to touch the heart.

Genuinely Personal Poems

Unlike other poems, my poetry speaks directly to the person receiving
your card. Notice the repeated use of “you,” “your,” and “we” in most of
my poems. As a result, your card speaks right to the heart and soul of
your special someone. See what I mean in this friendship poem, “My Treasured Friend.” Look at all the uses of various forms of “you.”

Author’s Choice Poems

Although I like all my poems or I wouldn’t post them, there are four
poems at Poemsource.com designated “Author’s Choice.” Of all the poems
I’ve written, these are my personal favorites.

1. This hot love poem, “Creatures of the Fire,” is accompanied by the story of how and why this site was created. It’s the first poem I wrote. It was my favorite then, and, years later, it still is.

2. A lot of people can relate to this funny birthday poem, “Birthday Workout,” which warns about the downside of a major birthday perk.

3. My most famous poem is a funny Valentine poem,
“Since My Valentine Got A Computer.” Yes, I know you’ve seen it all
over the Internet, but it’s mine. Chasing those who have copied this
poem is a full time job.

4. I’m a fool for love poems, and many of my romantic greeting
card poems were written with my husband, Karl, in mind. This verse about love is called “Anniversary Love Sonnet.”

Karl’s Poems

You’ll see Karl’s name as author on some poems. If my name is next to
his, it means I tinkered with it. Some greeting card poems are his
alone, however, and my favorites are his funny Thanksgiving poems.
“Thanksgiving Ghost” and “Belly Stuffer” are pure genius. (Note that
Karl likes to write “I,” “me,” “my” poems, and frequently my tinkering
involves inserting various forms of the more personal “you.”) Karl died in 2021. Here is a photo of Karl, taken in 2013. My photo, above, was taken in 2021.

You Can Customize Our Poems

You can customize many of my greeting card poems, entering details about
that person, to intensify the good feelings your card creates. In the
rhyming poems, you can use the non-rhyming lines (usually every other
line). In the free verse poems use any line.

Make Friends With Greeting Card Poetry

A greeting
card message is an easy way to say “I think you’re special.” Whether you
give greeting card wishes to friends or to people you’d enjoy having as
friends, the effect will be satisfying for everyone.

• They’ll feel better about themselves because of the good feelings you expressed to them with greeting card poetry.

• They’ll feel better about you because you made them feel good.

• You’ll feel good about yourself for having made them happy.

Make A Good Impression
With Greeting Card Poems

The right
greeting card message for a special occasion makes a great impression.
Let’s say you are invited to wedding. Your wedding gift sets you apart
because it comes with a quality wedding poem. Now you have made a
special occasion really special.

The
same goes for a graduation, baby shower, birthday or other occasion.
Your sentiments in a greeting card message make for good feelings all
around. They’ll remember you, and your poem, with affection.

Greeting card messages and sayings provide a simple, easy way
to make a lot of good impressions.

Expressing Feelings
Is Essential To Good Relationships

The 900+
original greeting card messages, wishes, sayings, verses, rhymes, words,
phrases you’ll find here will help you express your feelings and get
closer to people. They are designed to give the people you care about
warm feelings toward you, or pleasant tingles, or sometimes even happy
tears.

The
value of expressing emotion to enhance relationships cannot be
overstated. It’s often hard, though, to say your positive feelings out
loud; it’s easier to write them. But in our fast-paced, hectic world,
very few people take the time to write a letter, or even a note.
Poemsource.com gives you a quick, easy way to express your feelings in
appropriate ways to strengthen relationship bonds. How much easier can
it get than to tuck a greeting card poem, a rhyming poem or free verse,
into a card or note to let someone know you care?

Our greeting card messages are a great value. They’re free! But
first, check the copyright information for legal limits on the use of
our greeting card poetry. Please click here to read our Terms Of Use page for important details.

Then
click one of the buttons at the top left or one of the links below to
go to the page of your choice, select a greeting card verse and start
creating emotional magic! Your life will fill with fonder friends, and new ones, too!

Send a Poem

Send a poem to say you care;
Send a poem with thoughts to share.
A paper card you send today
Across the miles will make its way;

Or send an e-card really fast,
For friendship that will grow and last.
A poem creates so many gifts:
The brain it calms; the heart it lifts.

Send a poem to say you care;
A poem is welcome anywhere.
