Seven Wonders

There are Seven Wonders of the World
That man care not to mention,
Because he’s quick to boast and herald
His latest invention.

SEE things through...I HEAR one say,
TASTE the fruits of time.
SMELL sweet success and FEEL your way
Where LOVE can TOUCH with rhyme.

These treasures we overlook as simple and ordinary,
Cannot be built, bought or sold.
But are God’s wondrous gifts to thee
Which are free and more precious than gold.

             ***********************

To me the Seven Wonders of the World are:

To SEE
To HEAR
To TASTE
To SMELL
To FEEL
To LOVE
To TOUCH

Dear Betty Lou

I do perceive what goes on around me.  Sometimes I wonder whether that is a good thing, as I am a very sensitive person.  Thank you for your kind words.

Love Isobel

(big angel hugs) God Bless You, dearest friend, the world is taking all these beautiful gifts of God for granted and it is time we begin to embrace them again and fee ourselves from mental slavery! (sigh) This is beautiful, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Isobel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Thank you Noah for your kind words.  Most people go through life and they do things automatically, like robots.  We need to slow down and smell the roses.

Love Isobel
