Enigmas and Gods

Enigmas through time enjoy the change
If wishes enhance...then spirits gain
Our mind's eye restores trusts that are lost
Then boost our enigmas with strength at all cost
We end up with Gods who constantly sing
The need for like bodies who fly on the wing
Our wants are enhanced with that of a God
Then wishes are higher when given this nod
We want the impossible and need to nurse
Upon Gods with flavors we can't have...then we curse
Why do we build way beyond dreams?
Why does the nature of love redeem
From history's bluffs and lying ambitions?
Why does the host lose these situations?
Why do our egos adjust for our God
Who is merely a dream with a promising nod?

The universe has its own timeframe. In linear space and time (which are one and the same) we feel urged to solve issues in one lifetime, while in reality we have all the divine time of the universe to accomplish what needs to be taken care of. I dropped the urge and try eversince to let the Light guide me, to let it determine the pace of all my lives in space and time.

I will say it again, probably for the . . . Oh, I don't know . . . many times, if there wasn't a God we would have to invent Him. The human animal needs spiritual and moral guidance, because if we don't have that we will imediately revert back to the full animal, and the human part will cease to exists. Good thinking, pondering, poetry.

Very thought provoking write and one I am sure will make people pause and think which is what the written word should always do. As an a non religious type person, who does believe their is a higher power, just no longet believe it is one that other writers decided this is what we should believe a long time ago. I think god as such resides in our hearts and our minds which together combine to form our souls and our reason for existance. Love of life and our fellow man is my way to worship and pray and that is what I believe.

You certainly open the door for debate! Knowing you are a believer I can only reiterate that we who believe do so because the spirit within us has been quickened by Our Creator when we chose to believe. That leaves us with no doubt about a God. However, we may still have doubts about religion and how the bible is taught and many of the things we learned from teachers and preachers who know less than we do for they didn't have the spirit of discernment! Excellent poem Susan!

You set the bar of excellence in poetic debate, for all to contribute and contest, as it should be...
I believe a professional and exemplary poet should always set his or her standards unquestionably high, and create objects of passion, that make for a good and wholesome debate, leaving all options and interpretations on the board, for their discerning readership, to evaluate in their own personal and unique way !
As for God being a dream, I believe he is a tangible God, who appears for those who diligently and passionately seek him !
Love and Peace
