A Christian Writes

A Christian writes
  of Mary's agreement to the blessed flight
  when angels bowed before the blinding light.
A whisper soft and a promise
  as the changing times alarm us,
  fearful so that it could harm us.
A hope comes down to earth
  in the simplicity of an uncrowned Kingly birth
  precursor of our spiritual rebirth.
Would that the questions still rise
  with the inflection of doubting eyes
  that erase and sacrifice for all our lies.
Two thousand plus years pass
  and still we are incompletely cast
  with visions of our half empty glass.
Waxing philosophicl
  would that it appear most logical
  when faith is less methodical.
A Christian seeks the truth
  from Adam and Eve to Ruth
  in scrpiture of interpreted fruits.
God loves us, God does exist
 nothing is more sacred than this
 why resist Christ's birth in God's Kiss?
Simple and magnificent is my belief
 each of us steal Heaven like a thief
 satisfied that this life is short and brief.

I'm sorry you feel that way, Nigel. Must admit my doubts persist and yet, I cannot accept life here is by accident. Surely some creator lies hidden in the cosmos. Bless you.
