~ Phantom Truths ~



Man’s pen upon The Holy Scroll, rewritten countless times.
Imperfect by mere nature…human egos embellish lines.
Inclined to err consistently, prone to exaggeration,
True word of sacred passages, lost in new translations.



Myriad’s of artist’s brush, depict an image known,
Painted through his human eye, reflections of his own.
Glorious truths of mans creation, glorified myths in his mind,
Birthing embellished renditions, evolving as man redefines.



Man’s egotistical imperfections, penned a God to fear,
Laying in wait of poor lost souls, to cast out to demons near.
Amends be made in depths of hell, a sinner’s castigation,
Seeds of fearful punishment, sowed into all creation


Fear not our Source of Being, nor humanity’s retribution.
Seeking Savior’s sanctification, thus…one’s own restitution.
Infinite Energy show thyself, come clearly in our sights.
Questing Soul Creator’s manifest, to bring our truths to light.

Wow! What treasure there is in this poetic gem, Bonnie! I am soooo glad you dug it out and retuned it again because it deserves more and more exposure and highlighting... inspirational, lucid, full of wisdom and truth and just exceptionally gracious and liberating - like a kind of resurrection, restoration or redemption has already come as we read these timeless words of yours. I am so glad I didn't miss this one! A keeper for sure! TY and Bless you, Kate xx

What a lovely tribute, to Man and Mind, Bonnie. I love this verse:

"Myriad’s of artist’s brush, depict an image known,
Painted through his human eye, reflections of his own."

Bonnie this is a powerful poem with a thought
provoking message! Man has confused the issue
so much it got lost in translation! But God never
gets lost, though we may! Superb work!
