Premium Member Moments In God's Cosmic Time

Moments in God’s Cosmic Time

A fleeting, finite time space one now may define;
A flash of seconds for poets to see and find rhyme.

Fashioning a human understanding of God’s Time,
Gives us a hint continuant, complex too—yet Divine!

Einstein’s E = mc2 gives us all a most gifted treasure,
With “c” as light’s constant nature for us to measure.

These moments can concatenate continuously as one,
Or may be revealed in time by mere eye-blinks for fun.

By teasing our thoughts, God infuses our spirits now bold,
With life’s knowledge over time, worth more than all gold! 

Being of God’s self-image defines who we each are in life;
It’s for each of us to master our destiny before earthly strife.  

Teasing our thoughts with heavenly images of eidetic clarity,
God speaks to us all subliminally over time—never as a rarity!

God's the only true divine mystic when it comes to Cosmic Time,
And the master for setting the Universe in perfect Cosmic Rhyme!
