Notes About The Poem

" MAN AND LIFE" FROM MY ROOF GARDEN, MY PHOTO, ©

Image may contain: flower, plant, nature and outdoor

To Be Dismissed

When Heaven's plans for Man were prepared

Man insisted he to be free

His future asked himself to handle

From then into eternity



As millennia though have passed by

Man proved incapable to be

His own happiness to realize

Without divinity's decree



For that a choice is now asked to make

If he desires long to exist

All of heavens' commands to obey

Otherwise he will be dismissed!

When man, metaphorically speaking, unplugs himself from the source he is alone and without power. We should always remain connected my dearest friend. A very profound poem... Maria xxx

How can you pray my friend, Arturo, at the moment at which you "pray" Man to stop worshiping the source of his Creation? If Man stop praying to God , to whom is going to pray? To himself? Now... my nice little story carries an important big message for those willing to pray to the source of their Creation. God bless you my friend. Thank you for taking the time to comment so you gave me the opportunity to defend my source of creation!
