Paul Schneiter Poet Rhyme

Memory Supreme

Could it be there is a sacred place
Where the lives of humans live on—
Portrayals of every mortal face
Alive in memory faithfully drawn?

If we are to be judged by One above,
A record must have been made.
Will it show we knew how to love
Or will it project a darker shade?

Deity must have a memory supreme
Of every human who mortality knew.
If that seems a notion wholly extreme,
Recall there is nothing God cannot do.

Lindsay Laurie April 18, 2015 at 8:42 PM G'day Paul... you have written a poem that gives the reader a reason to question on maybe where their belief lies. Well done again - Lindsay Paul Schneiter April 19, 2015 at 5:57 PM The maintenance of faith requires (seems to me) what I call a "suspension of disbelief." So, Lindsay, you are being your ever-perceptive self in your reading of the poem. I appreciate your comment; it's insightful.

Kp Nunez April 18, 2015 at 7:37 AM A deeply introspective write, Paul. Just right, not judgmental, but makes the reader reflect. A 7. :) Kim Paul Schneiter April 18, 2015 at 7:44 AM Kim, I was within seconds of deleting this, thinking it too Sunday School-ish. Your timely and kind comment made me change my mind. Thank you ever-so-much for your words of encouragement.
