Gladys Brown Prince Poems

Greed is such a simple word
Yet rob so many of what they heard
The more you give the more it takes
And does not care even when it aches
...

My hope one day is just to greet
My Lord and king whom I shall meet
Face to face with Him on whose feet
The ointment poured so very sweet
...

The soul is that intricate part in man
Which someday God will require again
To stand in judgement for every human
Good for those with clean hands and heart
...

The clock of life is wound just once
That no one has a second chance
To change your very life of ease
Which you have lived just as you please
...

To laugh is always such great fun
It relieves the soul the heart the lungs
It is easy for others to join in the fun
And from frown and grouch they can run
...

When love immortal from above
Looks down on man with tender love
He saw him there perched like a dove
So puzzled of his first love lost
...

The rainbow now you cannot see
With colours as clear as can be
To mark the path of destiny
So often trod when saints are sad
...

The top is always a wanted spot
So many sought it but would not
Do what it takes to hit the spot
Or follow the few who cast in their lot
...

Freedom comes from deep within
And reflects the heart and soul akin
It gives you permission to surmise
And your heart wisdom to realize
...

She rises early before the sun
Awesome wonder at what God has done
Before the birds and bees to flower run
With God she has had her sacred fun
...
