The Searched Soul
by Dorothy Parker

When I consider, pro and con,
What things my love is built upon-
A curly mouth; a sinewy wrist;
A questioning brow; a pretty twist
Of words as old and tried as sin;
A pointed ear; a cloven chin;
Long, tapered limbs; and slanted eyes
Not cold nor kind nor darkly wise-
When so I ponder, here apart,
What shallow boons suffice my heart,
What dust-bound trivia capture me,
I marvel at my normalcy.


Wisdom, She is a wondrous Gift

“A house does not rest upon the ground but upon the woman and if she seeks holiness she rests upon God”.-Prophetess Sandra Dukes -anointedworks sd


“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves”. [Philippians 2:3]


Proverbs
Pro 9:1 Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:
Pro 9:2 She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.
Pro 9:3 She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,
Pro 9:4 Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
Pro 9:5 Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.
Pro 9:6 Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.
