Godlife

God and Life are one and the same
Synonyms you could say
But with differences.
God is the intangible,
Life the visible and touchable.
No matter how much we try, God
Remains just out of reach
But Life is what we know without a doubt.
Yet even within the tangible and sensory
There is the intangible always present.
If you doubt this, find a person who is dying
And see how different they look
After they have gone.
