If you would be so kind?

I have written all seven poems in the haiku style of poetry and published them on my blog for the first time today, the 14th of September,2019.
COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Conceived well. All of them make a point, for, truth is multidimensional. Only if we can see the whole picture at a time (as He does) we can know the whole truth. I have read them all, and say so.

Indeed the truth has many aspects and can be expressed in different forms. In our humanity we have limited vision. You are so correct about that.

Yes, in human form we are not able to have a holistic view of anything really. The big picture is of the Divine.
