Dear God

A prayer

Dear God,

There never was a universe

in truth or in illusion,

when it was all You

why we remained aloof?

Grief-stricken hearts of children

in loss of affection, Dear God

one of your traits die

when they cry in pain.

I saw birds falling on ground

and petals' color merging in dust,

when a man stood up against Bad

i saw people taking his blood out,

The creation of You is You

and they kill us

what then die is You,

don't mourn to see this all

do something

do something!!!

I've come to realize that God never stops bad things from happening, due to the free will He gave us, and thus will even let us use to do harm with. However He will help heal any who have been hurt. Often times we blame him for things that happen to us or other people, but we forget that we live in a world that is mortal, and inevitably will face situations that have many flaws and imperfections.

I also have found that we as humans often ask for help without realizing what we are asking for. We ask a God who knows all, to help us and He does, but we have a set way that we believe we should be helped, and a certain time frame that we believe we should be helped in. This is also not the case. God knows when to move in, when to remain still. We expect Him to help us the way we think he should but usually He sees the bigger picture. So we tend to get upset when He doesn't seem to be helping us, however usually He is, just simply not the way we think.

Thank you for sharing your understanding on the topic. Appreciate it.

How tactfully you adress to God at the same time you adress to human beings.
What are we doing? We are killing a person, very creation of God.
It is indeed thought provoking & thought pondering.

[Gaurav]

Truly said. I am the culprit and i am the victim. Thankyou.

[Mary Christabel George]

Well said Gaurav. A beautiful prayer indeed.

"... Do something... Do something". A clarion call against perceived anomaly. Nice literary piece., Vivid and Concise!

[Gaurav]

Thankyou Uche for your kind words.

[Neha Sharma]

Such a melancholic poem. I liked the subtle reference to the divine apathy. A nice flow. Some really great lines. Good work! :)
Keep writing :)

[Gaurav]

So powerfully written. Your faith and love for God really shine in this one. What a strong, inspiring piece. I am not particularly religious but it is impossible to deny your faith and belief- it just sings out of this!

[Gaurav]

It's a call to creator to show us the path. Thankyou for your kind words. Appreciate it.

Sometimes it seems like God isn't hearing our pleas when all the suffering in the world is in our faces day after day. Surely he/she must be able to do something about it. The only thing I can think of that would be a reason that he/she doesn't is free will...and God can't intervene in his children's life. Still, there must be a point at which the evil reaches such a height that help is the only answer. I agree with your poem and wish for help as well.

Thankyou Jesse for being a partner in prayer. It is all what we need right now to be calm and show evil the force of Good. Thankyou for taking out time to review the work. Appreciate it.

Sometimes praying to God for help gets frantic, and we sometimes get testy when that help doesn't arrive; we then shout at God to get his attention. This is normal. We just have to remember that when help from God DOES arrive we don't forget to thank Him just as emphatically. A nice flow to this write and very well conceived and written. take care...dan

[Gaurav]

Rightly said Dan. We remember God in sadness but forget to bow our head when happiness comes. We must thank God for everything. Thankyou for your kind words. Appreciate it.

This is an awesome piece of art, Gaurav!
We all are connected as our souls are part and parcel of the Creator (supreme soul) himself.
We humans sunk into our false ego, so as to never realize this or the relevance of universal eternal bond that our elements share.

Beautiful!

Thankyou so much for your kind words here Jyoti. Appreciate it. Yes, only One shines through all. We are living in an ignorance and seek to live under false impression of ego. You have touched the right chord here.

[Jyoti_Ablaze]

You are welcome.

[usman]
