Jennifer Proxenos Poet Prose

Flowing Thoughts

FLOWING THOUGHTS

When love flows free,
In abundance,
And you feel all the earths
Chains have been released,
The time has come
For exultation!

Rejoice now,
For tomorrow may be
Too late, and as beautiful,
As love may seem,
Cruelly it is beaten to death
By its own master, Man.

Within you, lives
The secret,
And the knowledge 
Is painful,
The need for sharing,
Reaches an extremity!

Jennifer Proxenos November 24, 2019 at 12:46 PM Things do need to be said and done - how do we know when our name is on God's waiting list, having said that, I don't know if you ever read my poem I wrote last year titled 'God's waiting list' It is a humorous poem. Thank you for your wonderful support and friendship SO, I respect and enjoy it. Hugs and blessings Jennifer.

Bette Bavington November 23, 2019 at 6:54 AM Rejoice everyday in God's love. Show it to others for there is no promise of a tomorrow. It hit me in the face when I lost my daughter at the age of 37 this month four years ago. It left a whole until I learned to live in the moment no matter what others around me were doing. I see God is the master and always in command. It helps me to realize just how special my life truly is. Jennifer Proxenos November 23, 2019 at 12:25 PM Hi Bette, I am so sorry, my heart is really sore to hear this, what I have learnt from life is that you can not plan for tomorrow, we must live in the moment. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
