Analysis of The Poem Of God



What is referred to as the origin of life, based upon
Revelation and human intelligence, is an eternal
Being, purely spiritual, whose nature is ‘love’.

Upon consideration, the essence of love
Is the giving of self and creatively we
Have received all from whom we
Refer to as ‘God.’

The source of existence, whether spiritual
Or material, has to be by Nature ‘spiritual’.
For prior to Creation there was only God!

An eternal reality of Three in One based
Upon the revelation of the Jewish /
Christian tradition. Which, in spite
Of eventual separation, confirms
The expected arrival of a Messiah
In the Immaculate womb of a
Jewish maiden named Mary.

Mary's Son, Jesus, later in life claimed that he
And God were One and that the Love between
Them was their natural spiritual reality.That
God’s own self comes to us as Spirit and word-
Man. Thus restoring the link between the most
Blessed Trinity and Creation.

For creation is the art of God-
The fields, the hills, the forests, the
Mountains, the seas, the rivers and all of
Animal kind including ourselves comes
From his nature which is the root
And the field of existence.
