The Law of Love

God is deeply in love with Earth
She is His ideal mate
Her azure beauty astounds Him
Her fruitfulness fills His cup with nectar
The brilliance of their human child delights him
He would be perfectly happy to let the fullness of His love over-whelm Him
And bathe us all in His constant presence.
but the Law of Love holds Him back
He is not our ideal God
He does not match the image in our mind
He is far older than us
His habits are set by the laws of physics
They force Him to remain without Form
We are still too young to tear away the veil
And see that all form is energy
radiant with Divine Love
And so there is a barrier between Man and God
over which the fullness of His love cannot flow
er He embarrass us with the paucity of our return of love
and thereby sadden our lives
And so He must wait
Until we are born again
