What To Wear

What To Wear

Clothes finely pressed and hair in place
Elegant jewels and a fresh powdered face.
Fanciful gaze and a nose tilted high,
So high that it reaches the tip of the sky.

Pride and arrogance are a burdensome chain
Yet for some they think it will give them gain.
Gain to a world filled with mud and greed
Ways of destruction that attain more speed.

There are other suits that we can wear.
Try on a bit of kindness or perhaps some fair.
Goodness, tenderness, loving and trust…
Are blessed fashions that neither fade nor rust.

Now is a perfect time to bow our heads
And ask for a different change of threads.
I want something to show the Spirit of Love.
Dress me in a rainbow, colors sent from above.

I pray that others can then understand
Store bought attire is not all that grand.
I hope that mankind will realize and see
How peace and love are true gems of beauty.

Very good, Julie!

Hi Julie,

I really like this! Clothed in a rainbow - what a great picture!

Julie, my daughter Krystal is going to have a baby any time now. Say a little prayer for her when you have a minute, all right? This is her second, so everything should be fine, but a little prayer here and there couldn't hurt, right? I'll let you all know when she has it and whether it's a boy or girl.

Thanks for this new poem! I like it a lot!

Love and Hugs,

Alice

Wonderful poem, Julie. Reminds me of the coat of many colours that Joseph (bible) wore. Too bad more people don't wear one.

Love
Pam
