Poetry: Defining God

by Judy Corcoran

Created on: November 19, 2010

For those with no faith, no persuasion, no creed

the next is a moot question

but for those who muse on a deity,

one queries some inventions.


I hear god described as merely a force

and only of good they say.

I hear them scoff at the concept

of a father God per se.


So what then do most consider as true,

those who believe in one God?

That we are in his image

seems the major message plot,


and that God is perceived as in everything.

So if the belief in God is endorsed

and if a God is seen as in all things

then it can’t be just labelled a force.


A personality He surely must have.

(She must have one too,)

if the leap of faith is taken

and God is seen as true.


For how else can we be part of it?

Them and me and you?

Can we claim distinctiveness

and deny God has it too?
