If I Have To Think God To Be Female (Sicilian Septet)

Rating: 5.0


(in answer to John Agard)

If I have to think God to be female
for all the beautiful things He did create
for big rainbows that are bright and not pale
for love that is something astounding great
then probably I would be drunk with ale
while to blasphemy Him I could not wait;
in the Word He declares to be male

[Reference: "Rainbow" by John Agard.]
