Contained Poem by Peter Eliastam

Contained



The amplitudes of Heaven are Your throne,
The measureless expanding universe
Your footstool’s elemental microzone –
Created – held in check. No thoughts traverse
It’s magnitudes, or cross The Cornerstone
Unbidden by Your Word. The contents of
The cosmos are unknowable, but shown
In plentitudes as vast as is Your love.
And The Uncontainable – alone
In Christ, was all contained – immaculate!
The Standard Man, thought word and deed, full grown,
Projecting all Your being, truly great
As only You are – modest and unknown,
Begotten from above – The Godseed sown.
