The Perfect Woman (Reply to sodpossom's poem)

What is a perfect woman, you ask me?
Ah! So glad you asked, for I know a she
She is made by God in heaven above
A jewel from his throne, made of pure love.

Just feast on her beauty, God's gift to thee
And look on her smile, she's most heavenly
For God made each woman perfect, I know
Jewels from heaven, His most brightest glow.

And I've known no woman I could not love
When I left her free in God's love above
When she is His, she's brighter than a star
Perfect Woman? That's you! Sweetheart, by far.

I'll always love you, The Perfect Woman.

Hi sodpossom. Glad you got a good one. I think we all do if we could just learn to leave 'em be woman, like God made 'em. And frankly if we're incompatible, go find a compatible one. Or, ..., do without!
Thanks for the inspiration.

Hi Nancy. Don't let that stop you. I find spiritual hugs are often better than fleshly hugs.

Newell darling boy YOU know I’m the perfect woman don’t you, Mmmmmm. Actually I’m not perfect, for if I was what would I strive for? If I seek it then I only have to look in a flower and see it’s perfect shape. Creation is perfection, we just aspire to it.

Who seeks perfection not I said me
For I am flawed as flawed can be
I am not perfect I don’t wish to be so
In perfection too much pride must flow
HE made me and then HE set me free
And said be whatever you wish to be
I replied then I’ll strive to be the best
And never compete against the rest
I’ll do what I can to praise HIS name
And still manage to ignite Love’s flame
Who seeks perfection? That’s not me
Perfection is my Lord who I see clearly

Utterly utterly superb writing darling boy I love it I really do. Mmmmmmmm  


  
Love and warm stuff

Hi Mushy!

I do believe that God made everything perfect. But man chose to go away from God's perfection and reinvent, abandoning truth, making facimilies of the truth through selfish illusions (lies) which separate us from God and cause imperfection. We have a choice, to follow God's purity in our hearts, or to follow man's selfish illusions. Only God knows when a heart is pure. And with all of man's imperfect knowledge and training, without help from Christ, God's Spirit of Love, it is very difficult to stay of pure heart, even though God made us perfect!

But in Christ we are covered from the spiritual consequencess of imperfections. So just stay close to God and try to keep a pure heart, my dear Mushy, and you will remain the perfect woman, as I now know you. Of course, we must rember that we are simply spirits. And God gives us all of the spiritual desires of our heart when we ask from a pure heart. Our bodies are not us, they are only spirit residues. Our perfection is in our spirits. And this goes for every woman and man.

I love your poem. And you, Miss Perfect!

This is so beautiful Newell, it's the beauty from deep down inside, that comes from Him isn't it. Beauty is only skin deep. Lovely poem. floria
