It Is Good

Just when we thought we understood

the words and the message inside The Good Book

we are beholden to take yet another look

for there is much enlightened science food

therein.

For each time, “God said,” the message changes focus

and if we are to reveal the mystery is must invoke us,

to travel through the various magical events

from birth to deaths to things more recent

are foretold.

Imagine, if you will, that all we need to know

is inside this grand book:  survival, revivals

if and when the mountains will blow

and how our lives are meant to be in spiral,

not a straight line.

Look not to your own understanding, not another’s words

but have faith in things not seen, as Moses did

take up your hands in saintly hugs, not the sword,

and well wishes to all you meet, love all ye bid,

and it is good.
