Notes About The Poem

" GOD'S WAY " MY PHOTO, ©

Image may contain: mountain, sky, nature and outdoor

God's Way and Man's Way

A seed was planted 
It took roots
A tree grew out of it
Which
Thousands of seeds produced 
That 
Fell on the ground 

Soon 

An impenetrable forest appeared.

That is
God's way of doing things

-

The Word of the Lord was transmitted 
Millions of ears heard the message

Alas,

Only a few hearts allowed it to take root in them
And
Even fewer were willing to spread the Word
Thus
Endangering it to disappear into oblivion.

That is Man's way!

Man learns slowly, as you say, thus he hasn't God much time to avoid a major upcoming catastrophe! Thank you for your gracious comment dear, Vijay!
