God Poem by Ravi Kopra

GOD BLESS YOU AS YOU BLESS GOD!
DO SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR HIM...

-Denis Martindale on poemhunter on 3/3/2018


How strange!
If there is God like described in scriptures
Why would he need your/our blessings?
Why should he be asking for mercy or for anything?
Either we do not know him or he is just an imaginary God-thing.

And why blessing one country over the other we are blessed?
Does God not like all human beings, all countries, all birds, all animals and everything else in this world including those who think God is an imaginary thing?

And why do we advertise God on radio, on TV channels?
He is God, can he not do it all by himself?
For example, he decides to do it one day
And precisely at that moment God hijacks all TV channels all over the world
and appears like a

An old old man, with long long grey beard and long long moustaches and two long long eye lashes, long long hair coming out of his nostrils
Wearing a long white robe and stooping on a staff made out of the apple tree wood in the garden of Eden and declaring -

Here I am
I am God
And if you do not believe me
Here are the Houris (they appear on the screen with the flip of his fingers)
Scantly clad, with jugs of red wine in one hand and lyres and violins in the other, and some with their tablas (drums)
After they pour wine into your goblets, they get busy singing, dancing and playing music to God's tunes...

And every child, every grown up, dumb or so called wise stands up from his chair before the TV screens and starts singing -

Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
Oh our heavenly Father is here
Right on the TV gospel channel number one
Let's pray and sing the holy hymns for him...

Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
Clap you hands, start crazy dancing
Move you big buts, twist your huge bellies
Sing loudly, loudly for
God is a little deaf. He cannot hear clearly...
