THE MESSAGE

                    The cosmic intellect that underlies
                    The vast totality of all that is
                     Must surely be supremely wise,
                     Our double sapience a mote of His.
                     Yet we’ve enough to marvel at what all
                     That we have finally come to comprehend,
                     Despite the set-back of our fabled Fall,
                     Which with God’s blessed grace we may amend.
                     So what now should we do to realize
                     Our race’s full potentialities,
                     Becoming, like our Maker, kind and wise,
                     Healed then of our primordial disease?
                         Just follow what his Son was sent to show:
                         That love alone can set your heart aglow.
