I'm not sure I understand all points in this thought-provoking poem, but I'll respond to some that stand out to me. Yes, we must know that God is Almighty and do our parts to make His world great. I must respond to the next to last stanza, which says we don't have to fear God or worship Him on a daily basis. This is not what the Bible says.

I think you did a fine job portraying God.

Great work! Below is my favorite part

Think the cosmic array may fall
And if, what makes you think tall
On this planetary earth or land surface
Go trace
See your face
Make no mess

To Alcreator,

The three phrases I picked out I beg to differ because if you do not abide by all His Rules(Commandments)or ask for God's favor in your life or worship and call upon His Name daily you might as well hang yourself for the Lord demands His children to follow in His footsteps always not just part-time.

You need not know all the Rule
Need not ask favour for everything from God
Need not all day worship, pray or call name of God

This was a poem that made me think about, justice, righteousness, and the fear of God. There were many things that were said which are true. The poem flowed well and touches the consciousness of humanity to do justly.

An outstanding spiritual poem that doesn't overreach, but presents a sensible view on how to be righteous. A creative free verse poem that brings forth the Good News.

I love your sentiment, but not your syntax. You have multiple grammar and syntax errors in the long piece. I agree with the premise that God is infinite and Truth is not subject to factual existence, but factual existence is subject to Truth, who is God. We have no choice, but to live with Truth, but facts can be adjusted within our capacity to change, which is Truth granted, not self-created. We can choose from all possibilities given us by God, who is Truth. We cannot choose not to be, or choose to be something else. At the moment of change, we, an from each moment we were. At each moment we will be in all the future we have available to us.

A very emotional and concincing spiriaul poem, with lots of pathos. You literally cry out to the reader, and I hear you (smile). Many should cry out God's name, before they make mistakes or commit crimes. Maybe all those could have been prevented.

This was strong:

Be known above all there is God
You are expected to be righteous for God
Not for riches or huge material gain
But to live a real man with lesser pain

The poet is loud, and strong, in his convictions; he has a good set of lungs, too, and doesn't seem to tire easily. I like the moral fix. Kenny

This is a very good poem. I love religious writing. This is full of the wonders of a God that is all-powerful and omnipotent. It is reassuring to find that there is a greater power than us up there.
