“GOD IS ?”

“GOD IS ?”

*******

All religions,  all peoples,

Worship Him differrently,

In their homes or at religous places

Day-and-night frequently !

With His differrent Names,

He stands absolute

Playing only Divine Games !

His presence is ubiquitious, why then Invisible ?

Atheists are proliferating making religion feeble !

Just like Judiciary and Science, they ask for His proof,

Why is He hiding besides horizontal roof ?

Earnestly, ergo, I implore Him to appear once for all,

To convince atheists for His Soverignty over all !

Once if so happens, it may end all His mystery,

It may then be an unchallengeable History !

All the heterodox generation may then be unanimous,

Including all atheists also becoming homogeneous !

A single glance of His may create a fantasy

To undo all the way unforgiveable fallacy !

**************

Ashwini,
good write with the standard good rhyming. A worthy prayer.
“Just like Judiciary and Science, they ask for His proof” but they can’t prove he does not exist!
I found this quote on Twitter -
“Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.”- Saint Augustine.

A good one, well written, Ashwinji.

have faith in its power”, a teacher, once, said.

@medhini, We dare not compare
electricity to Almighty God, on Whom,we people have great belief !
There are other elements, too, quite invisible but not appearable even
if they like. God is the absolute creator of all and also said to have
appeared before fervent devotees, sages etc., and also bestowed
upon them the boons implored. The poem dosn’t indicate any aspect
like misbelief or so. It lays down the ardent question from the side
of atheists coupled with my earnest urge upon Him to appear at
least once for all to create homogeneity among us all ! This poem is
an attempt to acquiesce the atheists at the mercy of the Almighty !
