AUGUST MOONS: DAY 2: WILLIAMSJI MAVELI WRITES, When I kiss and embrace...

Honorable Poetess Brenda,

Many thanks for your return to COSMO, I am much delighted in your poems, I wish to take up the translations of few of them, hence I need your kind permission for the same.

Referring to your comments on my above verse, I wish to write as below

God doesn't make entertaining of or put down our godly emotions. God has emotions. He created our emotions and encourages emotional expression inspired by Him.

A woman kissed and wept over Jesus Christ in Luke 7:38-47 New Living Translation Bible, and Jesus Christ commended her: "Then she knelt behind him at his feet, weeping. Her tears fell on his feet, and she wiped them off with her hair. Then she kept kissing his feet and putting perfume on them. When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know what kind of woman is touching him. She’s a sinner!” Then Jesus answered his thoughts. “Simon,” he said to the Pharisee, “I have something to say to you.” “Go ahead, Teacher,” Simon replied. Then Jesus told him this story: “A man loaned money to two people—500 pieces of silver to one and 50 pieces to the other. But neither of them could repay him, so he kindly forgave them both, canceling their debts. Who do you suppose loved him more after that?” Simon answered, “I suppose the one for whom he canceled the larger debt.” “That’s right,” Jesus said. Then he turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Look at this woman kneeling here. When I entered your home, you didn’t offer me water to wash the dust from my feet, but she has washed them with her tears and wiped them with her hair. You didn’t greet me with a kiss, but from the time I first came in, she has not stopped kissing my feet. You neglected the courtesy of olive oil to anoint my head, but she has anointed my feet with rare perfume. “I tell you, her sins—and they are many—have been forgiven, so she has shown me much love. But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love.

Love & hugs

Thanks my dear poetess Flower Girl, a  kiss is a lovely deception suited by our nature to mute language when words become surplus, an embrace is an emotional, lovely touch of two bodies into one

Regards & Love
