The Growth Of Power

Rebellion in Eden, sent life to the earth;
the serpent and demons were kings;
a coalition of power came to its birth;
demons and angels; lost wings.

In their midst, was the created man;
a goat in the clothing of sheep;
together; all had disturbed God’s plan;
causing their Master to weep.

Originally created with virtue and power;
both evil and pride entered in;
intended, by the Master, to grow and flower;
soiled by the stains of sin.

It was vital that their power be diminished;
and that they become divided;
otherwise, God’s creation would be finished;
by the evil they had incited.

Banished to live on a planet called earth;
life was God’s greatest creation;
longing for his children to return to their birth;
love granted the man salvation.

Eden was the kingdom of Consciousness;
where all truth and love were planted;
a perfected kingdom of Righteousness;
from which; prodigals were stranded.

Earth is the metaphor of the tree of life;
its fruit was knowledge, laid bare;
many feared hell, because of earth’s strife;
some knew they were already there.
