Gods Love


Is it the glow of love I see from Heaven's holy crew
Oh the light of daggers drawn from pulpit or from pew
Perhaps to carve from deep within my soul
The mighty grip in which, the devil in me, has a hold

I firmly maintain no man can ever choose
Words of God to believe, or scoffingly lose
He takes it all in one great wholesome bite
The Word of God will always be right

When the bible says the chosen must not eat
A beast in natural death, beware it's tainted meat
But they ignore then offer such as fare
To weary strangers, who haplessly wander there

It stands to reason, this God who made us all
Should equal love, not more for me, nor mighty small
Here is covenant to our God's unbalanced love
Opposite to written claim from the deity above

And when to Heaven you depart, to save your soul
Remember a devil once sat, where you would hope to stroll
This heaven it's understood to be a perfect place
You dare not improve the home, where He shows his face

Here should all souls reside, eternally in bliss
No furrowed brows dwell, nor ever is any amiss
Yet there was a time, in creation's distant past
While in Heaven's glow, in peace all did bask

One angel with envy filled, though how I cannot see
However in heaven, he did show greed and envy be
The angel was cast out of heaven and forever banned
And has tricked us into joining him and denounce this land

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
A piece on biblical teachings, Years before I had considered entering the priesthood, but was overly confused by the broad range allowed by the book towards good and evil.
