Tree of knowledge

sorenbarrett

Warning profound

prohibited tree

rooted in dark ground

Newton's apple

 

Naked not gowned

now gods

secrets unwound

font of knowledge

 

Men found

wisdom's well of water

Rumbling sound

rain from threatening skies

 

Lightning bolts abound

Tesla's smile

God frowned

By his hand man dies

      Magnificent imagery dear sorrenbarret. Going back to the beginning, and may I be so bold to state that it's a different end for each of us as God means different things to each of us. Your title is perfect.

      Beautifully poetic as always. 🌹

        Thanks Teddy for the review as always your kind comments are appreciated. Yes I am aware that everyone has their own ending and so the last line "his" can be taken either for the hand of man himself or the hand of God which ever way the person reading it wants to take it. Thanks again friend.

        It may be believed by many that God causes death but in my microsecond on this world it is nothing in the never ending spirit of my life.

          Thanks Gold for the read and comment. Being from the US where we so often butcher the kings English I left it vague on the last sentence so, although it might be more proper to say by his own hand, it can be taken by God's or Man's hand. To be taken as the reader wishes. Thanks Andy
