“To me, art begets art. Painting feeds the eye just as poetry feeds the ear, which is to say that both feed the soul.” —Susan Vreeland
Hello, my dedicated readers. For this week’s blog I thought I would present you with an original poem of mine. Actually, I have a file cabinet full of my poems which were written at various stages of my life. I am pleased to say that my Lord and Savior gifted me with talents that require me to use the mighty pen and paper, a typewriter, tablet or a computer. I commune with the Lord with all three.
Dear Heavenly Father: Thank You so very, very much for the gift that You, and only by Your grace, have given me. Please Dear Jesus, help me to identify these gifts and to use them only for Your glory. Amen.
(The following original poem was written by me and posted on WordPress on January 14, 2022.)
| When Women Worship By S. L. Fowler “W” When Women Worship They hold their heads up high… They Walk in confidence… Because their Jesus is nigh. When Women Worship They feel Worthy and are convinced… That they are in the Lord’s presence… And protected by His defense. “O” When Women Worship They Open up their hearts… They pour Out undying love… On the least Of them and the lost They look for Opportunities To bless their fellowman… To Offer encouragement… And to instill Order wherever they can. “M” When Women Worship They Manage to forgive… They try not to Mention Malice… They Mask their hearts from within. They take advantage of each Moment To Muster sacrificial love… To shower it upon their Mentors… In order to please the Man above. “E” When Women Worship Their very presence Electrifies… Every audience they Entertain… Causing their Enemies to take wings and fly. They are Especially hard on ole Slew Foot Causing the last Enemy to flee… For he would rather Evaporate… Then to take a knee. “N” When Women Worship They Nurture God’s flock… They Neither loose hope Nor the sight of glory… Why? Because they pray a lot. Women Neutralize opposition By memorizing God’s Nomenclatures… And reciting them back to the people… While including all of his creation; mammals and human nature. |

Sister Sonja,
This is truly poetic genius. I learned a new word “genus” and I loved the use of the letters from women. You used excellent alliteration within each stanza. Thanks for blessing us with the wonderful example of worshipping women.

Please excuse the misspelling of genius. (My Bad)
I composed this poem for a special women’s program in my former church in Rockville, Md. During that time in my life, I also wrote children plays and ordination services for women being ordained into the Deaconess Board.
I also facilitated book reviews on church etiquette classes. This consisted of teaching new Sunday School teachers the proper manners and conduct in various social and class room settings.
My services for the Lord have taken me to far away places that I had no idea I would go. And I shall never forget the miraculous experiences I encountered as a foreign missionary for ten years all over the world with Buckner International.
Please continue to pray for me as I stay on the battle field for the Lord. Amen
