Our beloved God

** Image ID #1913390 Unavailable **

Each living form is a distinct
entity that is in succinct
the godhead.

Like several pieces of a stone,
We bicker amongst ourselves, moan;
turn godless.

We forget to love the spirit
Inside us and disrespect it.
Poor Godchild!

This positive energy steers
all men to Heaven and reveres
godliness.

Every life changes and transforms
Through a course of moral reforms,
turns godlike.
