"Destined Minds"

So tender and sweet, inspiring reminder of what so many take for granted and do not take the time to truly see Gods' love in all that surround's us!!! Like the old saying "Take time to smell the roses". Lovely poetry Maree* Lyn

so raise your chest softly
and breath in the aroma of the earth
before time comes and is no more
so harken near all you who are loved

for I have been calling you for some time
and you have been so busy wasting precious
moment upon moment and have ignored
the sovereign voice of God from above

hmmm I think they are the next lines to this piece...

and yes you are right lyn...with a duaghter in law whos mother had surgery this morning for breast cancer? and future daughte rin law whose father is gravely ill and a friend who is like a sister has just lost two uncles this week as well as learning her father from overseas has taken seriously ill with diabetes...yes take time to smell the roses... and thank you for taking the time to read this piece though still unfinished

First: those verses you wrote are perfect, Second, I am sorry to hear of so much pain for so many all at once and my prayer's go out to you and family! It's strange because there seems to be a lot going around at once, just for instance; my daughter's just lost their great grandma a month ago (On their father's side) though she was 104 yrs old, but still hit hard, then 2 weeks later their first cousin (again father's side) he was only 15, he was hit by another 15 yr old driving with a permit with his dad, and came around a slow ramp at 45 mph and smashed right into Joey on his bicycle. Yet, the family decided at the last minute before pulling the plug ~as he was in a stage 4 coma and uncontrollable swelling brain~ To donate his organs, of which 2 were a perfect match and immediately went to two other children. So as devastating and tragic, his death helped give 2 other children a chance at life*** Lastly, you are most welcome and it is very much my pleasure to read your poetry! Peace and God Bless, Lyn

thank you wildtazzmaa
oh wow yes even at 104 when love dies there is always pain even an 105 year old grandmas which I can very much relate as i lost my great grandmas at 93 and that hit me very hard I think that is natural and understandable when such a perosn commands great love and respect from you...
