Analysis of The Eternal Bard
God is a poet
Whose poetry includes
Love, creation, and human
Salvation.
Whose Word became man
In the womb of Mary-
A unique poem -
Through the grace of His Spirit
The Word made flesh
Who died to redress
Adam’s fall…
The Poet who is Love
The Bard of the Angels
And of life everlasting
Our eternal and loving Abba
