Woman of God

"Have you ever seen a rainbow?" through a rain-soaked window pane, cathedral for my rosary Can you believe in Him? no more than I believe in myself What of the Son? I am mother to no man The Holy Spirit? little more than vapor Would you join your Sisters? my only habit is deceit What of heaven? the cold does little for my lungs Would you wait between? my soul is promised to an angel named Death Will you burn eternal then? I savor the ash

WHEW! Lay it out there. :D . I'm a funny Christian. I am able to read something like this and still love the art. I am 100 percent cool with everyone having their own beliefs. I've had Wiccan friends, chums who were atheists, Buddhists, Muslim and Jewish. I used to hang with some new agers... hippies of this millennium, is my assessment. As for your poem, love the last line! Keep stirring up the soup pot. LOL... careful, the bible thumpers may ambush you. Will soup you tonight. Was sick.
